Nashville, TN (December 20, 2011) – Award-winning husband/wife duo
Joey+Rory have made the most of the holiday season. They’ve not only turned their critically-acclaimed
A Farmhouse Christmas album into a
multi-city tour, they’ve also captured this sometimes traditional, sometimes quirky Christmas magic for television, called
“Country’s Family Reunion Presents Joey+Rory’s A Farmhouse Christmas.” The hour-long special, produced by
Gabriel Communication’s “
Country’s Family Reunion” division, made its debut in late November, will re-air on
RFD-TV December 23 at 8:00 p.m. and December 24 at 5:00 A.M. and 11:00 P.M. CST.** Santa says “All good country boys and girls should tune in for great Christmas programming!”

‘Larry’s Country Diner,’ and
‘Country’s Family Reunion’” said
Larry Black, producer of both shows. “They are such a sweet couple – so engaging and so warm. When they came up with the idea to do a television special surrounding their new Christmas album, I said, ‘if you can pull it off, we’ll do it.’ The show they came up with smacks of the old and resonates with the new.”Taped in their
1870s farm house and spacious barn in Pottsville, Tennessee, Joey+Rory mixed songs from their
A Farmhouse Christmas cd with light-hearted conversation about Christmas memories, favorite gifts, cooking and more. They performed all of the songs with their band in front of a set that they built in their barn. “It was decked out like a winter wonderland”, wife of the duo,
Joey Martin added. “We’re thrilled at how it turned out, and we’re anxious for everyone to see it. Funny thing is, we don’t even have a television, so we’ll have to go visit someone and catch it one these nights!” laughs
Rory Feek.The television show is sponsored by
Roper Western Apparel & Footwear.
