Grand Ole Opry

It's pretty appropriate on this Blast from the Past Weekend to have an amazing performance from Little Big Town of a Dolly Parton classic!

Naturally, it's always a blast to watch the performances of Grand Ole Opry superstars and legends, but there's something really special about those one-of-a-kind mind-blowing Opry debuts.

The death of country icon Merle Haggard hit the music world hard. Vince Gill channeled HIS grief into an original song.

As far as I'm concerned, we can keep doing tributes to the late Merle Haggard til the cows come home. That's where today's Opry Spotlight comes in.

I don't think I could've found a better performance for my Opry Spotlight than this one. The Grand Ole Opry never ceases to amaze me in its knack for surprising with a performance you don't see coming.

It's the 2016 premiere of Opry Spotlight and THIS is absolutely the way to do it...with Lee Brice like I have never heard him before.

If I lived in Nashville, I might be at the Grand Ole Opry a LOT! In terms of performances, that historic combination of country music legends, superstars, and brilliant newcomers has never been equaled.

Many's the time I'll use this space to shine a spotlight--ahem, an OPRY spotlight--on a brand new artist (sometimes one whose name I've never heard) who's made indelible impression with a Grand Ole Opry debut performance.

One night when I was at the Grand Ole Opry, the Oak Ridge Boys were slated for a performance about midway through the evening.

The Grand Ole Opry's great moments come from legends. They come from established superstars. And they come from new artists, too.

I remember when Trace Adkins walked out on to the Grand Ole Opry stage 5 years ago and officially invited his buddy Blake Shelton to become the newest member of the Grand Ole Opry.
