David Nail has filmed a brand new music video for his latest single and title track to his current album, 'The Sound of a Million Dreams.' For the video, Nail worked with famed director Chris Hicky, who picked the perfect place to film -- the historic Alabama Theater in Birmingham, Ala.
February 22, 2012 David Nail recently returned to his hometown of Kennett, Mo. to tie on an apron and serve Blizzards at Dairy Queen. That's how the 'Red Light' hitmaker made a few extra bucks during his teen years. He worked for a friend's mom, and based on his comments
David Nail's new favorite color just might be gold, seeing as how two of his hit singles -- 'Let It Rain' and 'Red Light' -- both have just been certified gold by the RIAA, which gives virtual bling to tunes which garner downloads exceeding 500,000 copies.
Now that David Nail has scored himself his first No. 1 hit with 'Let It Rain,' he is beginning to get more recognition as an artist. Now, he's preparing to hit the road with pop-rock singer Gavin DeGraw for a mini tour kicking off in March.
David Nail was a bit lost for words on Monday afternoon (Feb. 6) as he celebrated his very first chart-topping hit, 'Let It Rain,' from ASCAP headquarters in downtown Nashville.

February 6, 2012 David Nail just may be the best country vocalist that no one is talking about.
