Lewis plans Opry debut, releases new single

"Getting to play the Grand Ole Opry is such an incredible honor," said Lewis. "It's a dream come true to think that I'll get to stand in that same iconic circle where music royalty has stood."

Lewis' new single Granddaddy's Gun, from "The Road," ships to country radio next week. The song focuses on the nostalgic experience of passing down a family heirloom. The song was written by Rhett Akins, Dallas Davidson and Bobby Pinson.

"Granddaddy's Gun is the only song on the album that I didn't write," Lewis said. "In fact, it's the only song I've ever recorded that I didn't write. But the minute Rhett played it for me, it took me right back to my childhood. It's my story. It's a song I could have written."
