Ashley Campbell performed two of her original songs during her Grand Ole Opry debut on Saturday (Nov. 21) at the Ryman Auditorium. One of those selections, “Remembering,” is inspired by her father Glen Campbell’s struggle with Alzheimer’s disease.

“Thanks so much to the Opry for having me here tonight,” Campbell told the audience before playing “Better Boyfriend,” the first song of her set. “I played at the Ryman for the first time with my dad in 2011 so it is very surreal to be back here tonight playing my own music. I am so grateful for this opportunity and appreciate you being here.”

Campbell is signed to Dot Records, an imprint of the Big Machine Label Group.
