Franklin, TN, January 8th, 2016 – Mansion Entertainment – The latest single release from the ‘Walk On Faith’ Bluegrass Gospel album by Grammy Winner Brad Davis is ending the album’s release on a high note. “Black Sheep” will make its debut at Number 7 on the Singing News Bluegrass Gospel Top 10 in the February issue.
There have been a string of notable highlights since the album’s release in 2013 by Mansion Entertainment. Davis has appeared and performed selections of the album on TBN’s Praise The Lord, hosted by Jason Crabb, and a concept video release of “Never Give The Devil A Ride” has been aired on multiple national television networks including Daystar, Heartland, LeSea, TCT and many others.
“Black Sheep” was written in the early 1960’s by ‘Country’ Johnny Mathis with versions of the song released on albums by Mathis and covered on a rare Gospel album by Johnny Paycheck during that time period. Mathis was a notable songwriter with 10 Country Music Hall of Fame Inductees covering his music. Mathis wrote the song shortly after a return to his faith and embarking on an evangelistic ministry. His heartfelt passion for those that society often seemed to overlook became the inspiration for this song, those Mathis termed as “Black Sheep”.
Five decades later, Davis produced and released the first Bluegrass version of “Black Sheep” on his ‘Walk On Faith’ album displaying Davis’ exceptional musicianship, vocals and talent for producing. The album is available on iTunes, Amazon, Google PLAY and other digital outlets.
