The Chuck Wagon Gang sign with New Haven Records
THE LEGENDARY Southern gospel and country group The Chuck Wagon Gang have signed to New Haven Records. Said the label's president Ken Harding, "The Chuck Wagon Gang holds the distinction of being the oldest mixed gospel recording group still performing with ties to its original founder. After eight decades and 40 million in record sales, we couldn't be more excited about their past, present and future." New Haven are releasing the album 'Meeting In Heaven: The Chuck Wagon Gang Sings The Songs Of Marty Stuart'. Accompanying the CD release will be 'America's Gospel Singers, The Legacy Lives On', a full-length DVD documentary shot by world-renowned photographer Jack Spencer which chronicles the 75-year history of the Chuck Wagon Gang through rare family photographs, poignant personal stories, old recordings and new live performances. In addition to Marty Stuart and The Chuck Wagon Gang, the DVD features special appearances by Connie Smith, Merle Haggard, Eddie Stubbs and the Oak Ridge Boys.
