Friday (Oct. 20) was a milestone day for country singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Sophia Scott as she made her Grand Ole Opry debut and released her debut album, Barstool Confessions, via Empire Nashville.

Scott was first introduced to the Opry by her grandmother who traveled from Colorado with her parents to be in the audience for this special moment.

Stepping into the circle for the first time in snow-white, floor-length dress accentuated with feathers, she performed her single, “Lipstick on You,” a clever ballad that puts a twist on the classic breakup using makeup as a metaphor for dashed hopes. Scott followed with the emotional track, “Watering Roses,” which was was featured on CMT for the premiere of its official music video yesterday (Oct. 25). Both songs are included on the new project.

WSM Radio’s Charlie Mattos greeted her for a brief on-stage interview. Full of joyful tears, the artist was speechless, and then shared, “It’s really surreal. I’ve been waiting on this for a really really long time.”
