Jamie Dailey, formerly of Doyle Lawson’s Quicksilver, and Darrin Vincent, formerly of Ricky Skaggs’ Kentucky Thunder, became the most heralded new act in bluegrass as their debut album Dailey & Vincent (2008) and busy tour schedule introduced them to wildly appreciative audiences. The group took home seven awards at the 2008 International Bluegrass Music Awards Show, including Entertainer of the Year and Album of the Year. With Jeff Parker on mandolin; Joe Dean on banjo, guitar and mandolin; Jesse Stockman on fiddle; and Christian Davis on bass vocals and guitar; the band’s strength lies in the uncanny harmony of its vocal trios and quartets. With Dailey & Vincent’s impeccable arrangements and flawless performances, what you get is Bluegrass Gold.
