The Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum will welcome a brand new exhibit this fall featuring the one and only Charlie Daniels. The exhibit, “Charlie Daniels: Million Mile Reflections,” will open Sept. 23 and will run through March 2017.

“I can’t even articulate how honored I am by this exhibit at the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum.  I couldn’t think of a better name myself unless it would be Five Million Mile Reflections,” said Daniels.

“Charlie Daniels forged a bracing new musical style out of bluegrass, blues, country, jazz and rock & roll. His sound quickly became popular on country, pop and rock radio stations,” said museum CEO Kyle Young. “His musical journey has led him to the Country Music Hall of Fame, where he will be inducted in October. It is only appropriate that we celebrate his remarkable career with our latest exhibition.”

“Charlie Daniels: Million Mile Reflections” will include musical instruments, stage wear, awards, childhood mementos and more from Daniels’ personal collection.

The legendary fiddle player will also be inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame later this year.

“I have harbored many lofty ambitions, but I was almost afraid to dream that I would ever be inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame, what a surprise, what a blessing. Thank you God,” he said of his spot in the “Veterans Era Artist” category.
