Grand Ole Opry members, Grammy nominees, and multi-award winners, Dailey & Vincent are among the most respected and celebrated duos in American roots music. With unmatched harmonies, masterful musicianship, and a signature blend of bluegrass, country, and gospel, Jamie Dailey and Darrin Vincent have built a career defined by excellence, authenticity, and heart.
Since launching their duo in 2007, Dailey & Vincent have earned over thirty industry awards, performed on iconic stages including Carnegie Hall, the Hollywood Bowl, and the Grand Ole Opry, and connected with audiences nationwide through their syndicated Dailey and Vincent Show on RFD-TV. In 2026, they scored a major milestone with “Ruby,” which reached N° 1 nationwide on the Bluegrass Today chart, further cementing their place as one of the premier acts in modern bluegrass.
Their song “I’ll Leave My Heart in Tennessee” was adopted as an official Tennessee state song, and their annual Dailey and Vincent Music Fest in Hiawassee, Georgia, continues to draw fans from across the country.
As Dailey and Vincent prepare for the release of their forthcoming album on June 12, 2026, they continue to honor the traditions of American music while bringing their own distinct spirit to every performance.
