The Sound of a Million Dreams is the second studio album by American country music artist David Nail. It was released on November 15, 2011 via MCA Nashville.[2]
The album includes the number one single "Let It Rain",[3] which features Sarah Buxton on backing vocals, and the title track, which peaked at number 38 on the country music charts.
"Grandpa's Farm" was also recorded by Frankie Ballard on his 2011 self-titled album, and "Desiree" by The Ranch, a band fronted by Keith Urban, on their 1997 self-titled debut. Dave Haywood and Charles Kelley of Lady Antebellum co-wrote the track "I Thought You Knew".
Thom Jurek of Allmusic rated the album 3.5 out of 5 stars, saying that "Musically and sonically it's well above average, even if there are three generic cuts in the middle that keep it from rising to the next level."
The album debuted at No. 50 on the Billboard 200 (No. 44 on the Top Current Albums chart), and No. 8 on the Top Country Albums chart with 13,000 copies sold for the week.[4]
