Braden will make his Grand Ole Opry debut on Jan. 8, 2022. He was surprised with the dream news by his former co-worker and friend Chief Brian Goss from Brentwood Fire Department at his first annual Engine Co. 18 Golf Tournament. The Slapout, Ala., native spent seven years as a firefighter and first responder, before making the move to Nashville in 2016. He remained in the service building his songwriting repertoire and playing shows in between shifts until signing his major label deal.
