WSM Radio will launch “The Kelly Sutton Show” on Aug. 10 on weekdays from 6 a.m. to 10 a.m.

Longtime WSM Radio personality and Grand Ole Opry host, Charlie Mattos, will join Sutton as producer and co-host, alongside WSM Studio Director Annie Ney. WSM personality and Kelly’s Amazon Music co-host Amber Anderson will also contribute to the show regularly. Segments of “The Kelly Sutton Show” will be streamed across WSM’s social media platforms.

“I am truly honored to be entrusted with carrying on the incredible legacy of WSM Radio,” says Sutton. “Being part of Coffee, Country & Cody for the past five years has been one of the greatest privileges of my career. Bill Cody was so much more than a coworker—he was a dear friend, a mentor, and someone who helped shape both my career and my love for this audience. Our listeners have always felt like family, and that won’t change. I’m excited to help create a morning show that’s filled with laughter, great music, and genuine connection. Charlie, Annie, Amber and I can’t wait to wake up with our listeners each morning and continue the tradition of making WSM feel like home.”

Sutton is a CMA and ACM Award-nominated broadcaster and the first-ever female Grand Ole Opry announcer. She previously co-hosted WSM Radio’s “Coffee Country and Cody” for five years. In addition to her roles with WSM and Grand Ole Opry, Sutton will continue hosting her nationally syndicated radio show, “Y’all Access with Kelly Sutton,” heard on radio stations nationwide. She will also continue to host Amazon Music’s Country Heat Weekly podcast and “The Nashville Show” on Absolute Radio Country in the United Kingdom.

“Kelly’s personality, her passion for the music community, and the genuine relationships she’s built with artists and fans is exactly what our listeners connect with,” shares WSM General Manager Eric Marcum. “We’re excited to continue WSM’s long tradition of live, local programming that connects with audiences around the world. The Kelly Sutton Show will carry on the authentic Nashville storytelling that have been at the heart of WSM and The Grand Ole Opry for more than 100 years.”
