The Ryman Auditorium hosts Forever Yours, a star-studded tribute to Tammy Wynette, on March 30 at 7:30 PM. The one-night-only concert celebrating the “First Lady of Country Music” will be recorded for broadcast on PBS Great Performances. Tickets are on sale now at the Ryman’s website, with an airdate to be announced.
The lineup is formidable. Wynonna Judd performs “Woman to Woman” and joins Randy Houser for the classic duet “We’re Gonna Hold On.” Ann Wilson of Heart takes on “Stand by Your Man.” Lucinda Williams sings “Apartment #9.” The War and Treaty deliver “Golden Ring.” Lorrie Morgan, Gretchen Wilson, KT Tunstall, Terri Clark, and Brittney Spencer all bring Wynette’s catalog to life across the evening. Wynette’s daughter, Georgette Jones, closes with a personal tribute performing “I Hope You Knew.”
Wynette built one of the most emotionally resonant catalogs in country music history. From “D-I-V-O-R-C-E” to “Til I Can Make It on My Own,” her voice and raw storytelling shaped generations of artists and sold more than 30 million records worldwide. She earned multiple Grammy Awards and three CMA Awards for Female Vocalist of the Year. Performing her songs on the stage she helped elevate into the Mother Church of Country Music is exactly the right way to honor that legacy.
Forever Yours is produced by TH Entertainment and WORKS Entertainment, alongside Concord and Craft Recordings. The concert takes place March 30 at the Ryman Auditorium in Nashville.
