After announcing its official partnership with the Big Machine Music City Grand Prixearlier this month, the Grand Ole Opry has added more performers to the special Opry show set to take place in downtown Nashville on Sunday, August 8Justin Moore, Danielle Bradbery, Riley Green and Callista Clark will now join Opry member Alan Jackson to round out the lineup.

The legendary Opry show at Big Machine Music City Grand Prix will close out the three day festival, where fans and attendees will get a chance to experience the true heart of Nashville, as the Opry has been home to country music for 95 years.

“When we first began to conceptualize the Big Machine Music City Grand Prix we knew music had to be just as big a part of this event as the racing itself, and there is no better partner for this than the Grand Ole Opry - the show that made country music famous,” said Matt Crews, CEO of Big Machine Music City Grand Prix. “We are looking forward to closing out what is sure to be an unforgettable weekend in the best way possible with the Grand Ole Opry.”

The Nashville-based Opry has rarely in its history taken its iconic show outside its home venue, on those occasions visiting prestigious locales such as New York City’s Carnegie Hall and Washington, D.C.’s Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts as well as staging headlining shows at Bonnaroo, the iconic Manchester, Tennessee all-genre music festival.

“The Big Machine Music City Grand Prix has brought together a course like no other, an artist like no other and a show like no other to create an experience that could only take place here in Nashville,” said Scott Bailey, President of Opry Entertainment Group. “We are pleased to have the opportunity to connect artists and fans in such a unique setting.”

The three-day international festival of speed and sound August 6-8, 2021 offers something for everyone. It will be staged on a temporary 2.17-mile grand prix circuit in Nashville and around the Nissan Stadium campus. The course will cross the Cumberland River via the Korean Veterans Memorial Bridge, making the Music City Grand Prix the only current event in motorsports to cross over a major body of water.

In addition to a weekend of racing, attendees can look forward to the best Nashville has to offer, including live music performances by top artists, best-in-class food experiences and entertainment that centers on speed in a way only Music City can serve up.

About Riley Green:

Born in Jacksonville, Alabama, Riley Green was raised on the sounds of traditional Country, Bluegrass, and Southern Gospel music. He learned the spirit of songwriting and performing at a young age while spending time with his grandfather, Bufford Green, who ran the Golden Saw Music Hall. Riley shared the stage with him and other men of his generation, laying a foundation for the songs he’d craft in the years to come. His full-length debut album DIFFERENT ‘ROUND HERE was released in 2019 via BMLG Records and has produced GOLD-certified No. 1 hit “There Was This Girl” and PLATINUM-certified single “I Wish Grandpa’s Never Died” – a song People praised “might take him to a whole new stratosphere,” and one he shares co-writing credits posthumously alongside his two grandfathers. Highlighting his Southern roots and relatability, he co-wrote each track offering a perspective Rolling Stone describes as "Drinks-in-the-air Nineties country at an Alabama vs. Auburn tailgate." Named ACM’s 2020 New Male Artist of the Year Green recently released his latest EP IF IT WASN’T FOR TRUCKS with Billboard noting the “accessible, winning songs” and American Songwriter proclaiming his “storytelling talents shine bright.” Named a CMT “Listen Up Artist” and one of MusicRow’s 2019 “Next Big Things” he was also voted as one of CRS’ 2020 New Faces and was named MusicRow’s Breakout Artist of the Year at their Country Breakout Awards. After 2019 on Brad Paisley’s 2019 WORLD TOUR, his own GET THAT MAN A BEER TOUR and Jon Pardi’s HEARTACHE MEDICATION TOUR he kicked off 2020 on Jason Aldean’s WE BACK TOUR through the Spring and started a bi-weekly YouTube Golden Saw Series, presented by Busch.

About Danielle Bradbery:

Stepping into her own lane with sophomore album I DON'T BELIEVE WE'VE MET, Danielle Bradbery infused her story into her songs for the first time – penning seven of the album’s 10 tracks including “Worth It,” “Potential” and GOLD-certified “Sway.” While 2020 was a trying year for many artists, quarantine has given Bradbery time to create and expand her musical palette in thrilling new ways. Kicking off a new chapter last year with latest single “Never Have I Ever,” Bradbery tells a tale of falling so hard and fast it spins you in circles, which has amassed over 14 million global streams to date. Honing in on the butterfly-inducing lyrics, director Peter Zavadil brought this epic stunner to life with a socially distant video filmed on a ranch in her home state with her mom filling in as her glam team – watch here. The singer/songwriter also recently released another heartfelt track titled “Girls In My Hometown.” The piano-anchored slow-burner of reflection and remembrance finds Bradbery at her most tender and true — a meditation on where you’ve been and those mountains still yet to climb. The powerhouse vocalist broadens her impressive range and deepens her connection with her Mexican heritage by enlisting Latin GRAMMY® nominated artist KURT for a Spanish version of “Never Have I Ever” (“Yo Nunca He…”), out now via Big Machine Records. Tapping into her Mexican influences, Bradbery sings entirely in Spanish for the first time on the collaboration as a nod to her Latina culture. Fine-tuning her unique sound since getting her start winning Season 4 of NBC’s The Voice, Bradbery has earned multiple award nominations and toured across the globe with Kane Brown, Blake Shelton, Brad Paisley, Miranda Lambert, and more.

About Callista Clark:

Every song has a story and at just 17 years old Callista Clark has a lot to say. Like so many talented singer/songwriters that paved the way before her, the young songstress wields her creative gifts as both a defense and an instrument of peace as she puts her heart on display with her debut collection Real To Me, out now via Big Machine Records. Blending her love for authentic, timeless classics with the sounds of her Georgia roots, Clark “arrives with confidence and verve” (Billboard) on her debut collection. Gearing up for the release, she collaborated with many of Country music’s leading songwriters including Jonathan Singleton, Laura Veltz, Nicolle Galyon, and Emily Shackleton, among others. The proof that Clark can hold her own among Nashville’s most prominent is evident as she was recently named the next iHeartCountry On The Verge Artist and her debut single, “It’s ‘Cause I Am” continues to climb as Country radio’s most successful new artist debut of 2021. Her inspiring videos with which Scooter Braun (SB Projects) and Scott Borchetta (Big Machine Label Group) took notice, have amassed over 130 million views across all socials + YouTube. Follow along with Callista’s journey on FacebookInstagramTikTok and Twitter.
