Creed frontman Scott Stapp is set to make his Grand Ole Opry debut on October 23rd.   Opry members Jon Pardi, T. Graham Brown, and Ashley McBryde are also slated to stand in the Inner Circle the same night. Stapp has called Nashville his home for nearly a decade.

Stapp’s appearance will feature the first live performance of his duet with Dorothy, “If These Walls Could Talk,” written by Scott Stapp with Kylie Sackley (Sam Hunt, Keith Urban, Walker Hayes), Marti Frederiksen (Aerosmith, Carrie Underwood, Ozzy Osbourne, Faith Hill), and Scott Stevens (Halestorm, Shinedown).

Stapp said of being invited to the Opry stage: “I am humbled by this invitation and grateful for the Opry’s tradition of including outliers like me. The Nashville songwriting community has been an incredible source of inspiration and support through a life-changing era for me, so it is a distinct honor to step into the circle for the first time.”

Stapp’s band Creed were on the road this summer for their Summer Of ’99 Tour, and the band will be on the road this fall for the Are You Ready? tour, featuring 20 additional arena dates. The Are You Ready? tour kicks-off this November in Oklahoma City at Paycom Center, featuring special guests 3 Doors Down, Mammoth WVH, and Finger Eleven on select dates.
