Vincent joins Opry

Opry member Dierks Bentley inducted Vincent, who was invited a year ago by Opry member Jeannie Seely. An original induction date scheduled for March 24, 2020, prior to the pandemic.

Bentley said, "I'll never forget the night that our mutual friend Marty Stuart made me an official member of the Opry, and I'm so pleased to get to do the same for you tonight. Rhonda, you are now an official member of the Grand Ole Opry. I know you will carry the Opry banner proudly wherever you go."

"It's been 343 days, seven hours, three minutes, and five seconds," Vincent said laughing sharing how many days it had been since the Opry invitation came last year. "This is a night I will never forget and will cherish the rest of my life. I am proof that dreams really do come true."

"It's great to have the supremely talented and very patient Rhonda Vincent as an official Opry member," said Dan Rogers, Vice President and Executive Producer, Grand Ole Opry. "She brings with her countless fans, industry respect, and heartfelt passion for keeping the Opry vibrant and entertaining for generations to come. We look forward to Rhonda spending the rest of her career with us as part of the Opry family."
