About the Song
A song of comfort, legacy, and everlasting faith—sung from the heart of a family that never forgot its roots.
When Wil Reid and Langdon Reid—the talented duo behind Wilson Fairchild—step onto the stage to sing “In the Garden,” they carry more than just a melody. They carry a name, a legacy, and a deep, spiritual connection to The Statler Brothers, who not only defined an era of country gospel, but also happened to be family.
This version of “In the Garden,” a timeless Christian hymn written in 1912, takes on new meaning in their hands. As a tribute to the beloved Statler Brothers—Wil’s father Harold Reid and Langdon’s uncle Don Reid—the performance feels like both a homecoming and a prayer. The song, with its gentle assurance of peace and presence, is offered here with the kind of warmth and sincerity only a family steeped in faith and harmony can provide.
From the opening lines, Wilson Fairchild’s voices blend in that unmistakable Reid-family way—soft, rich, and filled with reverence. There’s no rush, no embellishment. Just a quiet stroll through a garden of grace, where voices from the past still seem to echo in the air.
It’s more than a performance. It’s a moment of remembrance. Of honoring the spiritual and musical foundation that The Statler Brothers laid down. And in a world that moves too fast, this simple hymn reminds us to slow down, listen, and feel the presence of something greater than ourselves.
“In the Garden” is a song about walking with God.
Wilson Fairchild’s tribute is about walking with those who walked before them.
And in that sacred garden of memory, music, and faith—the legacy lives on.
