Caitlyn Smith made her Grand Ole Opry debut to a full house at the Ryman Auditorium last Saturday (Nov. 5).  It was a bucket list moment for the singer, who had dreamed of playing the stage since she first began her musical career as a young teen. Smith was recently inducted into the 2016 class of CMT’s Next Women of Country, and her songwriting credits include Hot AC No. 1 “Like I’m Gonna Lose You” (Meghan Trainor and John Legend) and the Platinum song, “Wasting All These Tears” (Cassadee Pope).
