Dailey & Vincent In New York
Last Tuesday evening (2/17) Dailey & Vincent, the multiple IBMA and SPBGMA award winners, played their debut concert in New York City.
The set included several songs from the Statler Brothers’ repertoire as well as from their forthcoming album, Brothers From Different Mothers, due on March 31 from Rounder Records.
There is a review of the show at Joe’s Pub is in today’s edition of The New York Times.
Dailey & Vincent have had ample occasion to think about cost-benefit analysis in recent days.
Last weekend a commitment to play the Joe Val Bluegrass Festival, near Boston, prevented this ascendant duo from attending and performing at the Society for the Preservation of Bluegrass Music of America’s annual convention and awards show, where it had received nominations for awards in nine categories (six of which it won). The lesson: You can never be everywhere you need to be.
Tuesday night presented a smaller and somehow greater challenge. Dailey & Vincent, the most celebrated new bluegrass act of the last few years, could be playing any number of towns where they, or their genre, have a significant following. But instead there they were at Joe’s Pub, flat-footed and sober, singing to a crowd of a few dozen, a not-even-half-full room. The lesson: You might not always be in the place where you’re most needed.
Of course this is exactly the opposite of what Jamie Dailey and Darrin Vincent took away from this show, a sharp performance that they treated with dignity and, ultimately, joy.

When we interviewed Dailey & Vincent in Nashville during IBMA week last year, they were tight-lipped about their upcoming Rounder CD, Brothers From Different Mothers. They wouldn't even discuss the songs they had recorded, preferring to keep mum until closer to the March 31 release date.

Wow – makes me even more proud that I was there for this show. (and responsible for 3 other people being there!) Nice when business travel & personal interests can align! The part left out of the article was the rumble from subway trains that periodically rocked the house. Wondered what that photographer guy was doing crawling all over the place – thought that maybe Rounder had sent him!
