The Oak Ridge Boys Make Stop On "American Made: Farewell Tour" On TBN's Huckabee

GRAMMY® Award-winning and Country Music Hall of Fame members The Oak Ridge Boys brought their 'American Made: Farewell Tour' to TBN's Huckabee over the weekend, performing "Elvira" and "Bobbie Sue." This appearance was the group's first national television performance with new member Ben James. The group then went to the Grand Ole Opry® for Ben's official debut as an Oak Ridge Boy.

"It has been a dream come true becoming an Oak Ridge Boy," shares Ben James. "I grew up with their music, and performing nightly with them is a "pinch me" moment with every song. This weekend was extra special as we made our way to the Grand Ole Opry for the first time together. I love the Oaks, and I love and admire Joe Bonsall!"

"Although I was not able to sing with the Boys on the Grand Ole Opry Saturday, I assure you that I was there in spirit as young Ben James sang in my spot," shares Joe Bonsall. "My love to all my Opry family and my fervent appreciation to Ben for the incredible job he is doing!!"

The Oak Ridge Boys continue to tour the country on their American Made: Farewell Tour with nearly twenty states confirmed and more to be added soon. The Boys were also excited to launch their updated website this weekend!
