Eric Paslay to Play the Grand Ole Opry Circle Tonight

In case you didn't hear, the first ever Toyota Country Light's Festival is coming to NYSEG Stadium on July 10th! Tonight, one of the artists will perform at the Grand Ole Opry in the 'circle'.

Eric Paslay will play tonight but says that he exercised patience when visiting the most famous stage in country music. He avoided the 'circle' before he was properly asked to stand in it.

He said, "Didn't want to do the tour and step into it before it was time because I had a shot at maybe singing in it."

He went on to say that pretty much every country singer since the 40's has stood in that circle. It's a cool and humbling moment.

Go here to listen to in live tonight. You probably won't seem him in Nashville this evening, but you can definitely see him on July 10th!
