Little Big Town’s Unforgettable Night at the Grand Ole Opry

Little Big Town experienced one of their most incredible nights when they were inducted into the Grand Ole Opry in Nashville, Tennessee. The first show of the series featured a stunning rendition of “Why Me Lord,” a collaboration between country singer Vince Gill and Little Big Town members Karen Fairchild, Kimberly Schlapman, Jimi Westbrook, and Phillip Sweet. The performance left the audience, including the author, with goosebumps and a lasting impression.

Originally written and recorded by country music icon Kris Kristofferson in 1972, “Why Me Lord” has been performed by many artists over the years. However, the collaboration between Vince Gill and Little Big Town is considered one of the best renditions of all time.

Interestingly, Vince Gill was informed about Opry policies that discourage musicians from playing Jesus-related songs to avoid potentially upsetting non-Christian audience members. Despite this, Vince decided to proceed with the performance, and the audience responded with enthusiasm.
