The McCrary Sisters

They grew up in Nashville in the home of the legendary preacher and singer Rev. Sam McCrary, a key member of the Fairfield Four and a major figure in gospel music. They've sung, together and apart, on stages and in studios around the world. And they've become beloved anchors in Music City. After some work with producer/artist Buddy Miller, they answered popular demand to form their own quartet, and after several albums through the 2010s, the McCrarys have delivered their first Christmas album. It became a leaping off point for a joyful conversation about four remarkable lives in music.
