NASHVILLE, TENN. (October 1, 2009)--Dailey & Vincent were named IBMA's Entertainer of the Year for the second consecutive year at the 20th Annual International Bluegrass Music Awards, held at the historic Ryman Auditorium in Nashville, Tennessee, on October 1. The entire band received the Vocal Group of the Year award as well as Gospel Recorded Performance for the song "On the Other Side," written by Jimmy Fortune, Kevin Denney and Tom Botkin.

With a combined 10 IBMA Awards in 2008 and 2009 including Entertainer of the Year for 2 years running and Album of the Year in 2008, The New York Times is calling Dailey & Vincent "...the most celebrated new bluegrass act of the last few years." Their inaugural Rounder Records release Brothers from Different Mothers, debuted at #1 on Billboard's Bluegrass Album chart and even cracked the top 50 on Billboard's Country chart at #44. Headed by Jamie Dailey (formerly of Doyle Lawson's Quicksilver) and Darrin Vincent (formerly of Ricky Skaggs' Kentucky Thunder), the band's true strength lies in the uncanny harmony of their vocal trios and quartets. Combine that with Dailey & Vincent's impeccable arrangements and flawless performance and what you get is bluegrass gold.
