The Grand Ole Opry will tally its 4,935th consecutive Saturday night broadcast on Aug. 1 with a showcase featuring an iconic trio of friends: Emmylou Harris, Vince Gill and Rodney Crowell. Collectively, the music legends have amassed 36 Grammy Awards and 109 nominations.

The one-hour show will air live on Circle Television at 7 p.m. CT, as well as stream live on Circle’s YouTube.

On July 25, Chrissy Metz, CeCe Winans and Tracy Lawrence will step onto the Grand Ole Opry stage at 7 p.m. CT.
