Carroll makes his first appearance on Grand Ole Opry Live. His debut single, Alyssa Lies, has been tearing up the country music charts, while his new album, Waitin' in the Country, arrived on the charts this month at No. 1, making his the top-selling album debut by a male country artist in 15 years.

Nichols' current vide, I'll Wait For You, is a favorite on GAC's fan-voted Top 20 Country Countdown. Nichols recently hosted the Valentine's Day special GAC Love Songs.
