Alison Krauss, the most awarded female artist in the history of the Grammy Awards, is set to mark her 20th anniversary as an Opry member on Wednesday, July 3, and CMA award-winning group The Band Perry will visit the Opry the following Wednesday, July 10, playing an extended 30-minute segment.

Among others already scheduled for Wednesday nights this summer are “American Idol” finalist Janelle Arthur (Opry debut), Larry Gatlin, Kristen Kelly, Dustin Lynch, and Restless Heart (June 19); and Aaron Tippin (June 26).

The Grand Ole Opry is presented by Humana. Opry performances are held every weekend of the year, and the Tuesday Night Opry continues through Dec. 11. To plan an Opry visit, call (800) SEE-OPRY or log on to opry.com.
