Tuesday Night Opry 4/12 & Opry Country Classics 4/14

The running order for tonight's Tuesday Night Opry has not been posted as of yet, but the following artists are currently scheduled to appear: 

Grand Ole Opry members The Isaacs, Craig Morgan and Gary LeVox. 
Guests: Wendy Moten, Henry Cho, Midland and Fortune, Walker, Rogers & Isaacs. 


Opry Country Classics on Thursday night promises to be special as the Opry will be honoring Loretta Lynn as she celebrates her 90th birthday. While Loretta is not scheduled to be there, a few of her family members will be as Crystal Gayle will be the spotlight artist and making their Opry debut will be Twitty & Lynn. Tre Twitty and Tayla Lynn are the grandchildren of Conway and Loretta. 

While Tre and Tayla are currently touring together, and working on their own album, Tayla has embarked on her own solo career. Since 2016, Tayla has released two solo projects.  Her first solo project, The Ranch, was an EP released under indie label London Tone Music.  After signing a record deal in September 2019 with Tracy Pitcox – a longtime friend of her grandmother’s – at Heart of Texas Records, Tayla began to work on the tribute album she released in May 2021, lovingly titled Tayla Lynn Sings Loretta Lynn. Her grandmother is billed as a co-writer on the project, which features duets with greats like Tony Booth (“Sweet Thang”) and her Aunt Patsy Lynn Russell (a reprise of her grandmother’s most-famous song, “Coal Miner’s Daughter”).  “I’m real proud of this record she did of my songs,” Loretta Lynn adds, fondly. “She’s got a lot of me in her, but she’s all Tayla.” 

Also appearing Thursday will be Elizabeth Cook and Maggie Rose, no doubt singing a few Loretta Lynn songs, while Larry Gatlin is back as the host, with his brothers Steve and Rudy.
