Mark Wills Inducted Into the Grand Ole Opry

January 25, 2019

Woodstock resident and country music artist Mark Wills has been inducted into membership of the Grand Ole Opry, one of the biggest honors in the country music industry, and a goal of his since he was a child.

“Vince Gill said it so well when he invited Mark to join the family last month, citing Mark as being one of Opry’s great supporters and a proponent of what the Opry stands for,” said Sally Williams, senior vice president, programming and artist relations/Opry general manager. “We are glad to call him family and look forward to Mark entertaining Opry audiences and sharing his passion for the Opry for years to come.”

Wills, a multi-platinum, 16-time Billboard single chart-topper and ACM award-winning artist will kick off the 2019 Woodstock Concert Series on May 11 at the Northside Cherokee Amphitheater. Achieving his first chart-topping success at age 23, Wills has released seven albums. The Woodstock resident has been married to Kelly for 22 years and has two daughters.
