Eighth Day Scores First
Top 20 Hit |
 SPARTANBURG,
S.C. – Popular Southern Gospel trio Eighth Day just scored their
first Top 20 hit. Their current single, “Rolled Away Stone”,
will sit at #18 on the upcoming September 2008 issue of the
Singing News Top 80 chart.
Scott Robinson of Eighth Day said, “We are absolutely thrilled
to have our first Top 20 hit. ‘Rolled Away Stone’ has been a
major part of our ministry over the last couple of years. To see
the response that radio has shown the song has been very
encouraging to our ministry.”
“Rolled Away Stone” is the latest from a string of hits from the
group’s last release, Headin’ Home. All four previous singles
released from that critically acclaimed project have broken the
Top 40 on the Singing News Magazine’s Top 80 chart, the
industry’s most recognized chart.
Those songs, such as “He Would Have Done It Anyway” (#32), “I
Wanna Go Home” (#35), “Back to Me” (#26), and “Safe In His
Loving Arms (#29) have earned Eighth Day an impressive following
at Southern Gospel radio.
Eighth Day is a popular trio based out of Spartanburg, South
Carolina. The group is made up of husband and wife team Scott &
Joni Robinson and newest member Dave Mann. The group has quickly
established itself as one of the top new talents in Gospel music
today. Their fresh and progressive sound has been described as a
little bit country, a touch of bluegrass, and a whole lot of
Gospel! The group is beginning work on a new project. More
details on that recording will be available in the future.
