Upcoming shows include The Band Perry, Easton Corbin,
Vince Gill, Kellie Pickler, Chris Young, Craig Morgan, Ricky Skaggs, Dierks Bentley, Carrie Underwood, and more
This past weekend the Grand Ole Opry House was packed for three sold-out shows. Friday evening
Keith Urban wowed the crowd with performances of “You Gonna Fly,” “My Better Half,” and "The Luxury of Knowing” before inviting three lucky fans to join him on stage for his closing song, “Kiss A Girl.”
Saturday evening
Luke Bryan had the crowd up and out of their seats on his current single “Drunk On You,” his #1 single “Country Girl (Shake It For Me)” and “I Don’t Want This Night to End.”
Fans crowded the front of the stage as
Brad Paisley performed his most recent single “Camouflage,” as well as “American Saturday Night.” After teaming with
Alison Krauss to sing their heart-wrenching 2004 “Whiskey Lullaby” and just before launching into “Mud On The Tires,” Paisley said, "You're at my favorite spot in the entire world to be on a Saturday night, right here. This place gave birth to country music, and it continues to be the place where you come see how it is these days.”
