The big news broke on social media, sending fans into a frenzy. In a heartwarming video, Wetmore’s beloved grandmother surprises him with an heirloom from his late grandfather, who was a major influence on his musical journey. But the real surprise came when she handed him a note from the Opry itself. The note read, “We know the Grand Ole Opry has played a pivotal role in your journey, and we'd love to officially make you a part of ours...We look forward to celebrating this significant milestone where it all began," according to a press release. Tucker, known for his easy charm and big heart, could only smile and hug his grandma as the weight of the moment sunk in.
“Wow, I don't really have the words to describe how grateful and honored I am right now,” Wetmore shared with his signature humility in a press release. “The Opry was one of the reasons why I moved to this town to chase this dream and has been a goal of mine for as long as I can remember. Not only being invited, but getting to share such an important part in my career with my family and those I love the most brings me to tears. From the bottom of my heart, thank you. I'll see y'all on September 10.”
Mark your calendars, because this is one debut you won’t want to miss. Tucker Wetmore is ready to make his mark on country music history, and we couldn’t be more excited to watch him shine on one of the biggest stages of all. Congratulations, Tucker—September 10th can’t come soon enough!
