“We are incredibly excited to be back on the road and give Randy’s fans a chance to hear his music live again, and who better to sing his many hits than James Dupré?” said Mary and Randy Travis.
Always wanting to please his fans, and not willing to give up creating despite the after-effects of the stroke, the long-time Grand Ole Opry star stunned the world by releasing two songs newly created with the use of advanced technology over the past two years, “Where That Came From” and “Horses in Heaven.”
