Tuesday night at the Grand Old Opry, they announced their Opry Next Stage class for 2025, which includes: Avery Anna, Chase Beckham, Dasha, Caitlin Butts, Kashus Culpepper, Tigirlily Gold, and Tucker Wetmore.

This is a huge honor for all of these young artists because it means that the opera believes in them enough that they want to back their careers and put their names next to them as well.

Opry’s next stage is a great way for younger artists to get seen and that validation. However, these artists have had tremendous success on their own through social media and other platforms.
