I thought I would introduce you to a new #Musician David Nail who has released a Music Video for Christmas. If we were #Homeschooling Full Time Charlie and I would have listened to him during our Homeschool Christmas Party. If your teaching your children or your family enjoys Christmas Music I hope you take the opportunity to share this video with them.
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (November 13, 2024) – Singer/songwriter David Nail has released the music video for his heartfelt rendition of “I’ll Be Home for Christmas.” The video accompanies the lead single from Nail’s debut Christmas project, A Campfire Christmas, which was released on November 1. Get in the Christmas spirit and view here: youtube.com/watch?v=CM2qhOcR4OE
The video captures the essence of Nail’s A Campfire Christmas EP, which is all about creating a warm and intimate holiday experience. The song itself, with its simple yet powerful acoustic arrangement, is brought to life in the video with a simple shot of a winter landscape, glowing Christmas lights, and a warm fire.
Tickets are on sale now for A Campfire Christmas Tour. Nail will embark on a 13-city tour, creating a festive and intimate setting designed to transport audiences around a campfire as he performs the Christmas classics from the EP, alongside his well-known and timeless songs like “Let It Rain,” “Red Light,” and “Nights on Fire.”
The tour kicks off at the Knoxville Civic Coliseum in Knoxville, Tenn., on Nov. 30. From there, Nail will continue to spread holiday cheer with stops in multiple cities in Florida, Illinois, and Connecticut, before heading to The Westcott Theater in Syracuse, N.Y., on Dec. 20 and closing out the tour at Bull Run in Shirley, Mass., on Dec. 21. Most dates will introduce piano virtuoso Jacob Tolliver as the special guest opener. Tolliver got his start playing Jerry Lee Lewis in Million Dollar Quartet and touring with the legendary rock ‘n’ roller. He’s creating his own sound and paving his own path with new music coming soon.

About David Nail
Hailing from Kennett, Missouri, David Nail is well-respected up and down Music Row. Some might even call him a “tour de force” as his songs pull no punches in evoking the demons with which he has wrestled through much of his life. The GRAMMY-nominated multi-platinum singer/songwriter’s early releases, I’m About To Come Alive, The Sound Of A Million Dreams, I’m A Fire and Fighter, ignited his reputation as an innovator and creative risk-taker yet left Nail feeling restless. This led to the departure of the only record company home he’d ever known, MCA Nashville, where he’d formed friendships that endure even now.
Through dealing with his own journey of mental illness and the feeling of needing to “rebel against what people expect you to be,” Nail began making his most “organic” work to date, David Nail & The Well Ravens, with Jason Hall and Andrew Petroff. That project liberated Nail and propelled him into his next adventure. Writing solo for the next few months led to his debut solo independent EP Oh, Mother, a reflective piece of work.
Of the title track, Rolling Stone noted that “the song creeps in like a sunrise — quiet, restrained cello and keys are the only underpinning for Nail’s powerful vocals at first. But then it slowly builds to something more massive and majestic.” That release was followed by Bootheel 2020 and Bootheel 2021, projects dedicated to the singer/songwriter’s hometown in the “bootheel” of Missouri. Nail plans on releasing more music, leaving behind any self-imposed restrictions. In Nail’s own words, “My philosophy has always been, I just hope to have a good enough year that I can have a next year while staying as true to myself as I possibly can.” Find more
