(Nashville, Tenn. – Nov. 21, 2013) – Streamsound recording artist and Country music newcomer Austin Webb recently made his Grand Ole Opry debut at the historic Ryman Auditorium in Nashville, Tenn.
Webb discussed his Opry appearance, which he considers to be the highest honor he has ever received. “From the moment I walked in the backstage door, I was greeted with a gift from the Opry, along with an incredible letter welcoming me. As I sat in my dressing room looking in the mirror while recalling all of my heroes that have been in the same room, I felt as if I were living a dream. The Opry was the only show I’ve ever been nervous to play. Walking on the Ryman stage, I felt a spiritual awakening, a warm sense of reality – this is my life, this is what I was meant to do, and this is where I’m supposed to be.”
Webb performed his current single, “Slip on By,” as well as “It’s All Good” on the Ryman stage during the Opry at the Ryman show.
