Five-time Grammy Award winners The Blind Boys of Alabama's amazing spirit and soul is celebrated through songs as they team up with country music royalty to bring you TAKE THE HIGH ROAD, a powerful new album that explores the deep connections between traditional country and gospel music. Jamey Johnson, currently one of country music's most acclaimed and compelling artists, co-produced the album and performs on it along with guest artists Vince Gill, Willie Nelson, Hank Williams Jr.., Lee Ann Womack and the Oak Ridge Boys. This amazing country roster is further backed by an A-list of top Nashville studio musicians, with the result a stunning and powerful testament to the historic relationship between these genres.
