Gaither Vocal Band Lands Two DVD's on Nielsen SoundScan; 'Sometimes It Takes a Mountain' & 'Happy Rhythm' Hit No. 1 and 2
Sometimes It Takes a Mountain and Happy Rhythm, the all-new DVDs from the Gaither Vocal Band, debuted at the #1 and #2 spots respectively on this week's Music Video Sales chart according to Nielsen SoundScan.
Hosted by Gospel Music Hall of Famer Bill Gaither, the new releases feature the GRAMMY® Award-winning quintet performing in an intimate, rustic setting just south of Nashville at the concert hall of celebrated country duo Joey+Rory.
The recordings feature LIVE performances of the songs from the group's recent top-charting Sometimes It Takes a Mountain (Gaither Music Group) audio recording along with additional numbers as well as guest performances by HOMECOMING artists The Martins, The Isaacs, Goodman Revival, Charlotte Ritchie, Buddy Greene and The Nelons.
The DVDs also include interview footage with group members Bill Gaither, David Phelps, Wes Hampton, Todd Suttles and Adam Crabb and highlight the unmistakable harmonies that have garnered five GRAMMY® nominations, two GRAMMY® Awards and 17 GMA DOVE Awards. The Gaither Vocal Band was nominated for a 2015 GRAMMY® Award and was inducted into the Gospel Music Hall of Fame in 2014.
Crabb's award-winning vocals are highlighted on the recording's first radio single, "Sometimes It Takes a Mountain," which is currently in the Top 5 on the national radio chart.
The new DVD releases can be seen on an international TV campaign currently airing on PBS, Dish TV, DirecTV, AT&T Uverse, GaitherTV, TBN, RFD, FamilyNet, CTN, GMTN, Guardian, Liberty, TCT and TLN. It is airing in Canada on Vision TV, CTS, The Miracle Channel and Hope TV.
The Gaither brand of artists and products topped the BILLBOARD Year-End Chart of Music Video Sales Labels for 2000, 2011 and 2014.
The Sometimes It Takes a Mountain and Happy Rhythm DVDs are exclusively distributed by Capitol Christian Distribution and are available throughout general market stores and the Christian marketplace in addition to online retailers including iTunes, Amazon and www.gaither.com.
