Krystal Keith hit the Opry stage for her debut performance on July 9.

"I have never been nervous on a stage in my life...until that night at the Grand Ole Opry," Keith says. "There is something so special and sacred about that stage and being in the circle knowing all of my musical heroes have performed there so many times before me. I was so humbled and honored to have joined that long line of legends who've shared that moment."

Keith shared her time on country music's hallowed stage with her dad, Toby Keith, just a day after his birthday.

"His love of the good ole time country music is one of the greatest influences for both my dad and I, and being asked to perform just after his birthday didn't feel like a coincidence," she says. "It felt like a sign that he is watching over me smiling and guiding me through this journey."

The singer-songwriter is currently touring to support her debut album, 'Whiskey & Lace.' A full list of tour dates is available at KrystalKeith.com.
