Tuesday Night Opry 10/26 & Opry Country Classics 10/28

Looking at the schedule for the mid-week Opry shows, the Tuesday Night Opry has a very strong line-up, including Grand Ole Opry members Bill Anderson, Dailey & Vincent, Carly Pearce, Old Crow Medicine Show and Luke Combs. Also scheduled is the legendary Asleep At The Wheel and making her Opry debut, Leanne Morgan.

Tuesday October 26
7:00: Bill Anderson; Dailey & Vincent; Leanne Morgan; Carly Pearce
8:00: Old Crow Medicine Show; Asleep At The Wheel; Luke Combs

It seems as if every Opry show now has a comedian on the schedule, often someone making their Opry debut, and as mentioned, this week it is Leanne Morgan's turn. 

Leanne’s style of comedy combines her southern charm and hilarious story telling about her own life into an act that keeps them coming back for more. 

While performing in San Antonio she was asked to appear at the Las Vegas Comedy Festival and shortly thereafter appeared on ABC’s The View in a hilarious housewife segment. Leanne appeared as a finalist on Nick at Nite’s Funniest Mom and toured three years with the Southern Fried Chicks. She has appeared in comedy clubs, performing arts centers, and theatres all over the United States. She had a contract with Warner Brothers and ABC to develop a sitcom based on her comedy and also collaborated with legendary writer/producer Matt Williams (“Roseanne,” “Home Improvement”) on a half-hour comedy project.

Leanne and fellow comic Reno Collier recently co-hosted Chewing the Fat, a weekly radio show on Sirius XM/Blue Collar Radio and her comedy is in rotation every day on Sirius comedy channels.

She has toured as part of the comedy trio Country Cool, along with headliners Karen Mills and Trish Suhr. She has a comedy special currently streaming on VidAngel called “So Yummy” and her videos on Dry Bar Comedy have gotten more than 50 million views and growing!
