Gabby Barrett Joins Colton Dixon on New Version of “Build A Boat”

On January 27th, a brand-new version of the song, “Build A Boat (feat. Gabby Barrett)” will be available, featuring MULTI-PLATINUM and award-winning Country star Gabby Barrett.

“I respect Colton’s creativity as an artist and was already a big fan of ‘Build A Boat’ before he reached out to collaborate,” shares Barrett. “These lyrics really hit me, and it’s such a blessing to be a part of this new version and to be able to honor our Lord in this way.”

Equally excited to have Barrett join him on what’s become the biggest song of his career, Dixon commented, “I’m so honored to have a fellow American Idol alum, Gabby Barrett, join me in spreading the message of faith and perseverance through my song ‘Build A Boat’- what a great way to kick off the year!”
