Dailey & Vincent - 16 Tons

Christian Davis of Dailey & Vincent sings the HECK out of "16 Tons" (made popular by Merle Travis and Tennessee Ernie Ford) at the Doyle Lawson & Quicksilver Bluegrass Festival in Denton, NC on May 5, 2011, with a couple of interruptions by his bandmates...

Loved to hear Tennessee Ernie Ford sing this signature song.

[@heidifeldtman]

Wow! Never heard this song attempted before! BRAVO! Great job!

[@benjaminkaminski6496]

I know the jokes are rehearsed and hokey as can be, but I laughed out loud.

[@johnkratzer6217]

You all gotta see Jamie and Darrin and Christian IN CONCERT. TOTAL ENTERTAINMENT,
TOTAL TALENT, TOTAL JOY...We've now seen 18X and will again in Dublin, Va with
the Great Jimmy Fortune...in their new and additional country gosple quartet, and we're from
Pennsylvania.

The man emulates Tennessee Ernie Ford PERFECTLY !!

[@jeanettasabah7580]

Awesome

[@morganottlii2390]

In the same category as Harold Reid and Richard Sturbin. Can hit notes lower than a well diggers shoes!

[@sugargrove3]

the best entertainers out there folks these days!! Jeff Parker made the show!!

[@justin5021]

Good sound! But I think he sounds more like Harold Reid, I'd love to hear him do some Statler brothers

[@littlefillyyoung5733]

What happen to Christian Davis, and why did he leave Dailey, and Vencent?

[@littlefillyyoung5733]

I meant Vincent, sorry guys. I think the world of all of them. God Bless each, and every one of them. Congradualations on your recent induction into "The Grand Old Opry Hall of Fame " in Nashville , TN.

[@LoramirOfGondor]

littlefilly Young Yeah, he left and went back to his solo gospel career, I believe. I was sad to see him go but the guy who took his place, Tex McCune, is really good too!

[@irafinkelstein423]

How are Christians acting skills? I'd love a reboot of The Greatest American Hero with him as Ralph Hinkley!!!!!😂😂😂😂😂

[@mazafuzle]

[@deannahale69]

[@darrenwindmill6124]

Love his voice

[@LoramirOfGondor]

@DJRanchIncorperated They're amazing live - two hours or more of solid entertainment. They're all outstanding musicians, and they're hilarious and very nice too! Tickets are usually very reasonable and they travel all over the place, so check out the tour page on their website and see if they'll be in your area - it's a great show.
