Jelly Roll Invites Elementary School Students To Sing With Him On The Opry Stage
Jelly Roll Surprises Opry Crowd By Bringing Out Elementary School Kids To Sing With Him On Stage
Jelly Roll just made a group of kids’ dreams come true by inviting them to sing at the Grand Ole Opry.
On Thursday night, June 5, the Grand Ole Opry featured a special star-studded lineup of artists to help kick off CMA Fest in Nashville, Tennessee.
One of the artists was country superstar Jelly Roll. He performed several songs, including a duet with Brandon Lake of their collaboration “Hard Fought Hallelujah.”
But one of the sweetest moments of the night came when Jelly Roll invited a group of elementary school kids onstage to sing along with him on his hit, “I Am Not Okay.”
“I Am Not Okay” was released last year as the lead single from Jelly Roll’s Beautifully Broken album. Since then, it has become an anthem for mental health awareness.
The song went on to top the Country Airplay chart and has since been certified Platinum by the RIAA. It was also nominated for Best Country Song at the Grammy Awards.
The group of kids Jelly Roll brought out were from Ruby Major Elementary School.
Before they joined him on stage, Jelly Roll told the crowd that he first heard about the kids after learning they performed his song “I Am Not Okay” for teens at Antioch High School, where students had tragically faced a school shooting earlier this year.
Jelly Roll said that ever since he heard about it, he had wanted to find a way to sing with the kids, and he felt that a night at the Opry was the perfect time to make it happen.
As the kids walked on stage, Jelly Roll greeted each of them with a high five before they took their places. He then began to sing, with the children joining in on the lyrics beside him.
Near the end of the performance, Jelly Roll stepped back from the mic to let the kids have their moment, singing the final part of the song on their own.
Watch Ruby Major Elementary School students join Jelly Roll on stage at the Opry in the video below.
