A year ago, the Gaither Vocal Band underwent a renovation of sorts, reuniting all-star members Michael English, Mark Lowry, Wes Hampton, David Phelps and founder, Bill Gaither to create the first-ever five-member group.After a year of touring, the group next week releases a two DVD set and two new CDs, “Better Day” and “Reunited.”Here’s a little video sneak peek:The projects were taped in high-definition before a live audience at the Majestic Theatre in San Antonio, and feature quintessential Gaither Vocal Band classics as well as new songs; guest performances by The Isaacs, Jason Crabb, and the dueling pianos of Gordon Mote and young piano sensation Christopher Phillips; and behind-the-scenes footage.The DVD set is a companion to the new CDs of the same names: Better Day features select live performances from the San Antonio concerts and Reunited features studio recordings of Gaither-penned classics.For more about the Gaither Vocal Band, visit the Gaither website.RELATED POSTS:Gaither Vocal Band changes group membersGuy Penrod to release first solo project, Breathe DeepGot a gospel or Christian music news tip?
