During an interview on The Joe Rogan Experience podcast, Jelly Roll was given the surprise of a lifetime when Craig Morgan invited him to become a member of the Grand Ole Opry via video message.

Jelly was overcome with emotion, sharing in a social media post, “I’m honored beyond words and I can’t stop pinching myself. To everyone at the Opry, y’all are like family to me.

“To Craig Morgan, no matter how many times I say it i’ll never be able to tell you enough how much this has all meant to me. I love you Joe Rogan.”

Jelly Roll made his Opry debut on November 9, 2021 and has become an Opry fan favorite and beloved by not only the fans, but many of its members over the years. Jelly Roll has dedicated his time to playing the show numerous times, mentoring many artists through the Opry NextStage program, and serving as host of Opry NextStage Live shows in Texas.

A four-time Grammy-nominated, award-winning Nashville native, Jelly Roll continues to redefine the word entertainer. With the release of his 2024 album, Beautifully Broken, he topped the Billboard 200 all-genre chart and earned his second No. 1 Billboard Country Album chart debut. Beautifully Broken features his No. 1 songs like the Grammy-nominated “I Am Not Okay,” “Liar” that dominated the country radio chart for six-straight weeks and latest chart-topper “Heart of Stone.”

With numerous nominations and award wins, eight consecutive No. 1s at country radio as well as hits on the rock and Christian charts, and a landmark appearance as the musical guest on SNL’s 50th Anniversary Season Premiere episode, Jelly Roll has solidified his place as one of music’s most authentic and powerful voices.
