Crowder & Ricky Skaggs Collaborate On New Rendition Of “Go Tell It On The Mountain”

Look out, Santa! There are two new bearded wonders spreading Christmas cheer, and they go by the names of Crowder and Ricky Skaggs. The 3x GRAMMY nominee (Crowder) has teamed with Country Music Hall of Famer (Skaggs) on a bluegrass-driven, front porch-pickin’ rendition of the holiday classic “Go Tell It On The Mountain.”

And, if you’ve ever wondered what the birth of Jesus would look like in modern-day Music City, this spirited track has your answer.

Crowder and Skaggs will bring their banjo-laden collaboration to the legendary Grand Ole Opry stage on Friday, December 16th to continue the country music-themed holiday festivities.

Crowder’s ‘Milk & Cookies: A Merry Crowder Christmas’ album is available now via sixstepsrecords / Capitol CMG. The 14-track project is chock-full of festive originals, re-imagined classics and creative collaborations. Crowder’s one-of-a-kind style is put on full display throughout the entire project with standout tracks, including “I’ve Heard About You,” a tender tribute to the reason for the season, the bluesy original “Christmastime Is Here” and “December 26th (Auld Lang Syne),” which finds the Texarkana native putting his own clever spin on the lyrics to the New Year’s Eve standard, adding a modern take to the centuries-old song.

Download Mp3 : Go Tell It On The Mountain – Sarah Reeves

Curb | Word Entertainment pop artist and songwriter Sarah Reeves gives fans an early Christmas present with today’s arrival of “Go Tell It On The Mountain.” The bold, brassy version of the holiday classic combines the unmistakable Big Band sounds of Bing Crosby and Nat King Cole with the warmth and nostalgia of the Vince Guaraldi Trio. The same vintage charm stretches across all eight selections on More The Merrier, Reeves’ brand new Christmas album coming Nov. 12. Listen to instant grat track “Go Tell It On The Mountain” and pre-order/pre-save More The Merrier HERE.

“I chose ‘Go Tell It On The Mountain’ because it is a celebration of the Savior’s birth, the whole reason why we celebrate Christmas,” explains Reeves, who arranged the track with producers Ben Schofield and Mark Campbell. “I had so much fun recording this song. We decided to add some jazzy, classic elements to it, as well as another chorus section to really make it come alive even more. I hope that this song reminds you of the joy of Christmas and what a gift it was to have our Savior, our King Jesus, come to this Earth. It is worth shouting about.”

Earlier this summer, Reeves dropped poignant original track, “Years,” which she penned at the height of the global pandemic as a positive ode to an unprecedented year. Listen to the building anthem of hope and perseverance HERE, and watch the official music video HERE. Produced by Mike Cervantes, the introspective “Years” was co-written by Reeves, Ian Keaggy and John-Luke Carter and serves as the first taste of new music from Reeves since Life Love & Madness debuted in the Top 5 of the iTunes Singer/Songwriter album chart upon release last fall.

For the remainder of the year, Reeves, who recorded her upcoming album live in studio, will focus on sharing seasonal selections. More new music and information leading up to the release of More The Merrier on Nov. 12 will follow in the weeks to come.

Zach Williams – Go Tell It On the Mountain

Zach Williams – GRAMMY and GMA Dove Award-winning artist is bringing his signature style to a Christmas favorite “Go Tell It On the Mountain“.

“Go tell it on the mountain, that Jesus Christ was born – I can’t think of a more needed message right now,” Williams states on his revised classic. “2020 has shaken many of us to the core, and as this year comes to a close, I want THIS to be the message that ends our year. No matter your struggles, Jesus Christ was born to set you free. I checked another box on my bucket list – recording at FAME studios in Muscle Shoals Alabama, and this rendition is filled with a mix of the soul of that legendary studio, the camaraderie of my bandmates, and the message of hope that Jesus was born to save us all.”

Go Tell It On The Mountain

Go tell it on the mountain
Over the hills and everywhere
Go tell it on the mountain
Our Jesus Christ is born
When I was a seeker
I sought both night and day
I asked the Lord to help me
And he showed me the way
Go tell it on the mountain
Over the hills and everywhere
Go tell it on the mountain
Our Jesus Christ is born
He made me a watchman
Upon a city wall
And if I am a Christian
I am the least of all
Go tell it on the mountain
Over the hills and everywhere
Go tell it on the mountain
Our Jesus Christ is born
