Sarahbeth Taite recently made her Grand Ole Opry debut. Nathan Chapman and Parker Welling, both of whom co-produced Taite’s The Way We Started EP, were by her side for the pinch-me moment.

Taite performed “Diamond and a Baby” and “Pretty Good Living,” and shared the stage with Vince Gill, John Berry and Don Schlitz. She teared up between songs, explaining to the audience that since her first visit to the Opry at age 14, she has spent “every day, every year after that, working toward this moment right here.” Following her performance, Opry Host and WSM Radio personality Kelly Sutton joined Taite for an onstage chat.

“It was the most magical night of my career, and I know already that it always will be,” reflects the songstress. “I will never forget stepping into that circle, with one of my baby girls in the audience, and one in my belly. My family and I will treasure this forever.”
