Hot country newcomer Brett Young marked a momentous occasion in his career when he made his Grand Ole Opry debut on Saturday night (6/25). The California native stunned the audience with his current Top 30 single “Sleep Without You” and fan-favorite “You Ain’t Here to Kiss Me.”

“I grew up listening to the legends who have performed on this stage before me,” said Young. “Never in a million years did I imagine that a Country boy from California would have this opportunity and I am beyond grateful.”
