With Christmas week upon us, there is only one mid-week Opry show, which will take place on Tuesday night. This will be the final Tuesday Night Opry until February.
Grand Ole Opry members Rhonda Vincent, John Conlee, Dailey & Vincent, Don Schlitz and Charlie McCoy are on the schedule.
Darryl Worley, coming off a successful run of Christmas shows at the Opryland Hotel is among the non-members on the schedule. Also scheduled is Eric Paslay and making their Opry debut, The Shindellas.
Tuesday December 19
7:00: Rhonda Vincent, John Conlee, Eric Paslay, Charlie McCoy
Intermission
8:15: Darryl Worley, The Shindellas, Don Schlitz, Dailey & Vincent
The Shindellas are based out of Nashville and are composed of Tamara Chauniece, Stacy Johnson and Kasi Jones, officially formed in 2017. Their debut album “Hits That Stick Like Grits” arrived in 2021, showcasing a glorious introduction to a group that can seamlessly weave the spiritual and the soulful as if it’s one sound. Their follow up album "Shindo" was recently released.
The Shindellas have an acute understanding that Black women singing together to form one sound has historically shaped the foundation of pop music. It bleeds onto each verse that they sing and each harmony they create. The depths of their melodies contain the gospel-inspired vocal tradition of En Vogue and the thundering, genre-bending flair of The Pointer Sisters. They make songs that combine all of the elements that made Black girl groups ubiquitous in the 1960’s and bonafide superstars in the 1990’s while crafting a fresh sound that’s firmly planted in soul music’s past, present and future.
Overall, a nice looking show.
