“Two Dozen Roses” lands atop of the iTunes All Genre and Country charts
Grammy, ACM and CMA-winning Shenandoah earns the group’s first No. 1 in 30 years with “Two Dozen Roses” with reigning CMA Entertainer of the Year Luke Combs. Released via 8 Track Entertainment, the collaboration, which has already amassed over one million streams, landed at No. 1 on the iTunes All Genre and Country charts after its September 22nd release.
“Iconic group. Iconic song. Complete honor to sing on this one, Shenandoah! Thank y’all for having me,” Combs shares.
Shenandoah lead singer Marty Raybon delivers the opening lyrics of “Two Dozen Roses” with his signature sound that helped establish the style of ’80s and ’90s country music, influencing a new generation of artists like Combs. Complementing Raybon’s emotive vocals, Combs takes the second verse, bringing his unique edge to the classic, which he has included in his own concert setlist.
The new version was produced by Grammy winning engineer Noah Gordon and recorded at the historic Fame Studios in Muscle Shoals, where the original version was recorded and the longtime home to founding members Marty Raybon and Mike McGuire.
“Two Dozen Roses” follows Shenandoah’s 2020 album, Every Road, which featured collaborations with Luke Bryan, Blake Shelton, Ashley McBryde, Dierks Bentley, Lady A, Zac Brown Band, Carly Pearce, Cody Johnson and Brad Paisley. Every Road marked the group’s tenth studio album, after notching 13 No. 1 hits, charting 26 singles on Billboard country charts and accumulating over 300 million on-demand streams.
