The Grand Ole Opry will dedicate its Saturday show to Dolly Parton after artists paid tribute with her classic songs.
The Grand Ole Opry in Nashville is set to honor the memory of country music legend Dolly Parton with a special dedication during its Saturday night performance. The announcement came after a Tuesday evening tribute show at the historic venue, where several artists performed renditions of Parton's most beloved songs.
Among the performers was Rhonda Vincent, who delivered a rendition of "Coat of Many Colors," while Morgan Myles took the stage to perform "I Will Always Love You." The selections highlighted the depth and enduring appeal of Parton's songwriting, which has inspired generations of musicians.
Show host Charlie Mattos addressed the audience, reflecting on Parton's influence and character. He noted that she taught those around her to lead with kindness, generosity, and compassion, and expressed confidence that her legacy would be felt at the Opry for generations to come. He also mentioned that the Saturday show would be dedicated to her memory.
Fans who cannot attend the event in person will still be able to listen to the tribute. The Saturday evening broadcast will be available on the Opry's home station, WSM-AM, as well as through online streaming at wsmonline.com and opry.com, and on SiriusXM channel 58.
