presented by Springer Mountain Farms. As part of their Diamond
Celebration, their 3-day festival bringing the very best in American
music, will move from its prior Denton, North Carolina location to the
heart of the Georgia Mountains in scenic, Hiawassee, Georgia – this

and will be held September 14-16, 2017 at the Georgia Mountain
Fairgrounds. Ticket packages range from $35.00 – $110.00 with general
admission and/or reserved seating available. Fans can also stay on-site
via tent or RV in one of the 189 campsites offering full hook ups and
amenities.
A stellar lineup of the very best in Country, Bluegrass and Gospel
Music, the bill includes the Grammy-award winning act Jerry Douglas
Presents the Earls of Leicester, The Del McCoury Band, Sierra Hull,
Primitive Quartet, as well as current and former members of the
legendary Doyle Lawson & Quicksilver, of which Dailey was a member
prior to forming the duet with Darrin Vincent.
“We are so very thrilled to be bringing music fans some of the
greatest music in the world, in one of the most beautiful places in the
world!,” says Jamie Dailey.
Hilda Thomason, General Manager of the Georgia Mountain Fairgrounds,
is eagerly anticipating hosting the event. “We are very excited about
bringing the Dailey & Vincent LandFest In The Mountains to the
Georgia Mountain Fairgrounds! There is a lot of excitement from the
community about the new event coming to Hiawassee. We have a great venue
and beautiful campground to accommodate all the guest! The event is
going to bring new customers to Towns County that has no idea where we
are located! Looking forward to working with Dailey & Vincent
LandFest for many years!”
Dailey & Vincent LandFest in the Mountains will offer

Dailey and Darrin Vincent, backed by one of the best bands on tour

their own distinctive style and worldwide recognition as American Music

the top position for over 15 weeks. In 2017, the dynamic duo will reach
even greater heights, with an induction into the prestigious Grand Ole
Opry, an exhibit in the Bluegrass Music Hall of Fame celebrating “A
Decade of Dailey & Vincent – an All-American Music Journey,” along
with other standout performances including their third appearance at
