A Tribute Through Blood and Song: Wilson Fairchild Honors The Statler Brothers with “I’ll Go to My Grave Loving You”
In a heartfelt tribute that brought both memory and music full circle, Wil and Langdon Reid—sons of Don Reid and Harold Reid of the legendary Statler Brothers—took the stage as Wilson Fairchild to perform one of the group’s most beloved songs, “I’ll Go to My Grave Loving You.”
This wasn’t just a cover. It was a moment steeped in legacy, a family’s way of saying thank you to the voices that raised them and the harmonies that shaped generations of country music fans.
With their rich, genetic blend of voices and deep respect for the music they were born into, Wil and Langdon delivered the classic with fresh sincerity—each note a tribute to the brothers who defined an era of gospel-tinged, story-driven country.
“I’ll Go to My Grave Loving You” was originally recorded by the Statler Brothers in 1975 and quickly became one of their signature ballads. Now, nearly five decades later, it lives again—this time not just through performance, but through blood.
For fans of traditional country, family harmony, and timeless storytelling, this rendition by Wilson Fairchild is more than a performance. It’s a quiet promise: that the music—and the love it was built on—will never be forgotten.
