CRACKER BARREL’S EXCLUSIVE DOLLY PARTON DVD/CD
GOES GOLD
An Evening With…Dolly continues to glitter on and off the stage
Lebanon, Tenn. (May 18, 2012) – The first-ever Cracker Barrel Old Country Store® two-disc set, An Evening With…Dolly,
has earned a Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) Gold
award. The DVD/CD was RIAA certified just four weeks after its April 2
release date and its debut at #2 on Billboard’s Top DVD Music Videos
Chart.
The RIAA gold award marks a first for Cracker Barrel and the first for
Dolly Records in the U.S., with previous Gold certifications in
Australia and the United Kingdom. “I’m thrilled that so many fans are
listening to my songs and taking a look behind-the-scenes of my European
tour,” said Dolly. “I had a wonderful time performing in London and I
think the audience did too. It’s exciting to be able to share my
experiences with Cracker Barrel fans. And I have to tell you, I’m even
more excited that An Evening With…Dolly earned the first Gold in the Cracker Barrel exclusive music program. That’s just icing on the cake.”
“We’re very pleased that An Evening With…Dolly
has been so popular with our guests,” said Julie Craig, Cracker Barrel
Marketing Manager. “It is our first two-disc set and the first Gold for
our exclusive music program. We just couldn’t be prouder of the
quality and energy that Dolly brought to this project.” The first-ever
Cracker Barrel two-disc set was the second project with Dolly Parton and
is available for $11.99 exclusively at all Cracker Barrel locations and
online at crackerbarrel.com.
“In true Dolly fashion and always on the cutting edge, Dolly was the
first to be SoundScanned in Cracker Barrel’s exclusive music program,
and now their first gold record,” said Dolly’s Manager/President of
Dolly Records Danny Nozell.
