Black River Entertainment’s Due West made its Grand Ole Opry debut recently. Upon entering the circle, Opry member Jim Ed Brown extended them a warm welcome. Due West performed two songs including the current radio single, “Things You Can’t Do In A Car.” Playing the Grand Ole Opry is a career high for the vocal trio. Due West described the milestone as “nothing less than a magical experience and an evening we’ll never forget.”

Produced by Garth Fundis and written by Due West’s Brad Hull, “Things You Can’t Do In A Car” is the lead single from the band’s release due out in early 2013.
