Toby Keith To Headline Grand Ole Opry's Final Winter Show at Ryman

Appearing on the Grand Ole Opry for just the second time, Toby Keith will be headlining the final show fo the 2010/2011 winter season at the Ryman later this month. Label mates Carter's Chord and Trace Adkins will join Toby and Opry stars for two performances Jan

This will mark the second time in Keith’s career that he has played the Opry; his debut performance was Dec. 14, 2002.  “The Opry is the most prestigious historical music-related event in all of country music,” Keith says. “I don't live in Tennessee and it's always been difficult for me to make the arrangements to perform on that grand stage. But it doesn't keep me from listening almost ritualistically to it.”

Keith is nominated for the Best Male Country Vocal Performance Grammy for his emotional tribute to his late friend Wayman Tisdale, "Cryin' For Me (Wayman's Song)." He was recently honored with the Video Visionary award during FOX-TV's American Country Awards. "Bullets In The Gun," his current single and the title track to his latest album, is in the top 15 on the charts and climbing.

Carter’s Chord, a sister trio raised just outside of Nashville, TN will be making their Grand Ole Opry debut.  Their upcoming single, “A Little Less Comfortable,” hits radio January 31st with a music video soon to follow.  Look for an album from the group later this year.

Grand Ole Opry member Trace Adkins’ current single is “Brown Chicken Brown Cow” from his Cowboy’s Back In Town album. Adkins is nominated for a GRAMMY® for his “Hillbilly Bone” collaboration with fellow Opry member Blake Shelton.

The Grand Ole Opry® is presented by Humana®.  To plan an Opry visit, call (800) SEE-OPRY or visit opry.com.
