After more than 500 performances on the self-described "show that made country music famous," on November 2, 2021, the Grand Ole Opry introduced Tennessee-raised singer Mandy Barnett as its newest member.

“We are thrilled for Mandy, and congratulate her for becoming the newest member of the Grand Ole Opry. She is a singer's singer, and justly deserves the honor of being among the elite members and great Grand Ole Opry country music artists..." said Dr. Gerald Murray, Barnett's booking agent and owner of Gerald Murray Music.

Country Music Hall of Fame couple Marty Stuart and Connie Smith joined Barnett on stage Tuesday night during an Opry broadcast to welcome her into the program's "unbroken circle" of member artists. Barnett's membership was then made official by Marty Stuart.

Connie Smith invited her to become an Opry member on Sept. 28, 2021. "You've felt like family since we first met, and on this, your special day, we're honored to invite you to become an official member of the Grand Ole Opry!" Smith said.

Mandy was joined on stage during her November 2nd Grand Ole Opry set by Patsy Cline's daughter Julie Fudge, who presented Barnett with an autographed photo of her mom and a canceled check for $50. Per a press release, "the check was written for cash so Cline could make a trip to Houston, where Cline likely spent time with her fan and friend Louise Seger. Cline's friendship with Seger is at the heart of [Always...Patsy Cline]."

"This is the happiest day of my life!," Barnett said in September. "I came here back in the 80's and met so many of the greats that came before me like Roy Acuff, Minnie Pearl, Jean Shepard, Billy Walker -- and you Connie. I made my Opry debut in 1994 and I've had so many supporters who have rooted for me and been nice to me all these years."

Barnett is also set to appear in each of the Opry's four "Opry Country Christmas" shows debuting this coming holiday season at the Opry House.

"Night after night, year after year, we've been astounded by Mandy's magnificent performances. She loves the Opry and the Opry loves her right back. It's a great match now and will be for years to come," Opry vice president and executive producer Dan Rogers said.

An uncompromising singer whose style is rooted in the classic country of Patsy Cline, Jim Reeves, Webb Pierce, and Brenda Lee, Mandy Barnett’s keen interpretive sense enables her to delve into a song, study the intricacies of its emotional content, and render a powerful performance through her full-bodied voice.

Mandy has starred as Patsy Cline in the musical production Always…Patsy Cline at Ryman Auditorium in Nashville on and off since 1994. Mandy tours regularly in concert, nationally and internationally, and is a frequent guest on the Grand Ole Opry.

She has released critically acclaimed albums, including her self-titled debut, “I’ve Got a Right to Cry”, produced by Owen Bradley, the Christmas album “Winter Wonderland”, “Sweet Dreams”, and “I Can’t Stop Loving You: The Songs Of Don Gibson”. Mandy has also been featured on movie soundtracks.

Reviewers have heralded Mandy’s talents as “one of the most beautiful ‘classic country’ female voices of all time. She has total control of her voice and sings effortlessly. Barnett is a true master of her craft.”

Barnett becomes an Opry member in a busy year for inductions from the nearly century-old institution. She's the fifth artist to earn Opry membership this year, joining family gospel group The Isaacs, bluegrass staple Rhonda Vincent, trio Lady A and country hit maker Carly Pearce.
