Lady A Happy To Honour Dolly Parton

Lady Antebellum was one of the acts that were a part of the Dolly Parton: 50 Years at the Grand Ole Opry television special that aired on NBC on Tuesday, November 26th.

Charles Kelley said the trio was honoured to be asked to participate.

“We’ve been doing this now 13 years and we feel like we’re starting to get in those kind of worlds where it’s kind of cool to be one of those artists that’s asked to be part of really cool artistic events that honour like, great artists. It’s really humbling, and Dolly is, she is one of the best songwriters of all time and such a chameleon and has been in so many different facets of the business that, from an entrepreneurial standpoint too, I mean she’s just the quintessential woman boss of our genre. She really is. She kind of set the bar high for everybody.”

In addition to Lady Antebellum, Dolly Parton: 50 Years at the Grand Ole Opry featured Dierks Bentley, Chris Janson, Emmylou Harris, Hank Williams, Jr. and more.
