Open Road was truly honored to have the opportunity to perform at the Ryman, opening for Old Crow Medicine Show as part of the Martha White Bluegrass Nights concert series. It was a wonderful way to celebrate the release of our third Rounder CD, Lucky Drive.

Grand Ole Opry announcer Eddie Stubbs was the announcer for the Ryman show that night. We want to thank him for his encouragement and for posing for several photos as he was celebrating his 10th anniversary with the Opry.
