Jason Aldean and Luke Bryan are lending modern-day star power to a revamped version of Shenandoah's comforting country classic, "Sunday in the South."

Originally recorded for Shenandoah's 1989 The Road Not Taken album, "Sunday in the South" is one of the group's enduring hits, and was a No. 1 radio single following its release. To this day, the ballad still looms large in the hearts of country fans for its evocative descriptions of small-town Sundays filled with faith.

Now, Bryan and Aldean trade verses with lead Shenandoah vocalist Marty Raybon for a nostalgic new version of the track, which came out on Friday (Sept. 13).

"Recording one of the staples in our set list with a couple of country boys like Jason Aldean and Luke Bryan couldn't have been a better fit," Raybon says in a statement. "We are honored that they would be part of such a meaningful song to us. They sure did carry the mail!"

After they released the song on Friday, Shenandoah shared video footage of Bryan coming out on stage to say hi to them during a live show.

The revamped "Sunday in the South" marks the second time in as many years that Shenandoah have released a new version of a classic song, with help from a modern-day star. Last September, they teamed up with Luke Combs for a duet rendition of "Two Dozen Roses," another hit track off The Road Not Taken.
