On Friday 1 November 2019, Gene Watson graced the hallowed stage of The Grand Ole Opry at Ryman Auditorium in Nashville.

'We had a great night at the Ryman for the Grand Ole Opry on Friday.

Enjoyed visiting with so many good people, including these right here.  Erin Enderlin and Marty Raybon of Shenandoah.



Erin just released her new album, 'Faulkner County' (Black Crow Productions, 2019), and Marty told us he's going into the studio for a new album, so be sure to check on both of them'
