Randall Franks performed this 2009 ASE Song of the Year on a PBS special alongside Third Day and Collective Soul. His Georgia Mafia Bluegrass Band was hand picked from members of the Atlanta Country Music Hall of Fame for this performance. The band went on to win Atlanta's Bluegrass Band of the Year from the Atlanta Society of Entertainers for several years.

"I wrote this song as a prequel to Charlie Daniels' 'The Devil Went Down to Georgia'. God blessed me with the story in one burst and it seemed to flow without me having to even think of the story." Randall Franks
