Darius Rucker Invites Lady A To Join The Grand Ole Opry

Lady A thought they were just filming a performance for an upcoming Grand Ole Opry special last night, but were in for a big surprise! After their song, Darius Rucker came onstage and invited the band to become the newest members of the Grand Ole Opry.

Becoming an Opry member is considered one of the highest honors for an artist in country music. “We are so truly grateful to officially be a part of this amazing family,” Lady A said in a post on Instagram.

Fans will get to see the special moment on the Grand Ole Opry 95th Anniversary special, February 14th on NBC, hosted by  Blake Shelton & Brad Paisley.
