The Oak Ridge Boys

The Oak Ridge Boys are once again set to celebrate the kick off their annual Christmas Tour in 2013- making it the 24th year for the anticipated holiday event. With a festive show featuring live performances of holiday classics and their biggest hits, Richard Sterban, Duane Allen, William Lee Golden, and Joe Bonsall have teamed with Compassion International as the official sponsor of the 2013 "Christmas Time's a Comin'" Tour.

"Over the course of our career we have worked with many children's relief organizations, but never have we seen a more positive response from our fans than we are seeing with Compassion International," says Oak Ridge Boy Joe Bonsall. "I believe that folks are moved by Compassion International's Christ-centered approach to feeding and educating needy kids around the world-and their amazing success rate, which is impressive! When folks sign up to help a hungry child there is a huge chance that THAT child will rise out of poverty and make a difference in the world. This is why we are excited and blessed to be working with this stellar organization."

"Compassion International will be traveling with us on our Christmas Time's a Comin' Tour so folks can meet them first hand and join with us as we try to do some positive things for children. The song "Thank God For Kids" has inspired us for decades to give back and to be a special blessing to needy children. Our partnership with Compassion International enables us to fulfill those visions, and together we can make a huge difference through Christmas and beyond!" adds Bonsall.

The Oak Ridge Boys will also be filling the holiday season with the celebrated sounds of their "Christmas Time's A Coming" album which marks the Oaks' sixth holiday CD. It is available at Cracker Barrel stores nationwide.
