Cowboys & Indians has exclusively premiered the first listen to the Isaacs’ second instant hit, a “beautiful, harmonious spin” on the Beatles’ “We Can Work It Out.” “The Lennon-McCartney-penned tune has aged beautifully and sounds just as musically joyous and lyrically thoughtful 55 years later in the capable hands of singing siblings Ben Isaacs, Sonya Isaacs Yeary and Rebecca Isaacs Bowman and their mother, Lily Isaacs (Dana Joseph).”
“We Can Work It Out” follows the release of the album “unifying title song (Lorie Hollabaugh, MusicRow)”, which was released on July 2 with a concept videoproduced and directed by Ben Smallbone and Andrea Royer (for KING & COUNTRY). People exclusively released The Isaacs’ video “celebrating the beauty of the country’s diversity (Vanessa Etienne)”, while It looks like Nashville has exclusively premiered the first listen to “the poignant anthem (Deborah Evans Price)”.
Featuring “songs you remember as well as honest originals presented to you in the style of the Isaacs you admire (Bethany Bowman, The Tennessee Star)”, The American Face draws inspiration from the many genres that have influenced the band’s musical style, including country, bluegrass, rhythm and blues, folk, contemporary, acoustic and gospel. The American Face was recorded in Nashville and produced by Ben Isaacs and Bryan Sutton.
Through the Isaacs Foundation, the band will donate a portion of the proceeds from The American Face to The Ministry of the Bridgea 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization in Nashville, which exists to alleviate the suffering of underprivileged children, the homeless, and the working poor by providing vital resources and a message of hope. The Isaacs, frontline descendants of Holocaust survivors, have also raised hundreds of thousands of dollars to bless Israel, particularly Holocaust survivors, “lone wolf” IDF soldiers, and orphans through the Isaacs Foundation, via the Fishman Isaacs Israel Initiative (FIII) since 2018.
With musical roots dating back to 1971, The Isaacs began in part with matriarch Lily Isaacs, who spent time as a folk singer recording for Columbia Records. The Isaacs are a successful group of singers, acoustic instrumentalists, and songwriters who deliver a unique style that only family harmonies can create. Their remarkable sound has led to invitations from prominent contemporaries including Dolly Parton, Reba McEntire, Vince Gill, Alison Krauss, John Rich, Paul Simon, and many others to sing on numerous albums and stages. Additionally, The Isaacs are one of the most sought-after acts to sing the U.S. national anthem at events ranging from professional sports games to presidential rallies.
The Isaacs are also frequent guests at the Grand Ole Opry, active members of the Gaither Homecoming Videos and Concert Series, and perform over 100 dates a year to welcome fans around the world. The 2020 Gospel Music Hall of Fame inductees have also been nominated for and performed at the Dove Awards, where they have won seven trophies. Other awards include the International Bluegrass Music Association Awards, the National Quartet Convention Awards, and the Inspirational Christian Country Awards.
