Josh Baldwin To Make Grand Ole Opry Debut, August 17

On Thursday, August 17th, Gold certified singer-songwriter and member of Bethel Music Josh Baldwin will make his much-anticipated debut at the legendary Grand Ole Opry. Baldwin is best known for his Gold certified single “Stand In Your Love” which was featured on Bethel Music's 2019 album VICTORY. He most recently appears on Come Up Here with “Time and Time Again.” Tickets are now available HERE

“I'm so honored to be playing the Grand Ole Opry,” shares Josh. “Growing up in the South, the Opry has been a staple in my family. I remember growing up and hearing about the Grand Ole Opry from my grandparents, my cousins, aunts, and uncles, and hearing the radio program. Not really being 'in' Country music, I don't think I even realized that was a dream I could have imagined, much less something I could accomplish. I think the fact I'm able to do this and be a part of it, while being in Christian music, is just so amazing and mind blowing. It just feels like hallowed ground in some ways to be able to be there and be a part of something that has been around for years and years.”  

This Fall, Josh will join Anne Wilson on “The My Jesus Tour” throughout the US. The 20-date tour kicks off September 28th in Webster, TX and will head up the East Coast with stops in Virginia Beach and Jacksonville before wrapping in the Midwest on October 29th in Wooster, OH. Tickets are now on sale HERE.
