Everyone was thrilled to be a part of the tribute to Lee Greenwood – a country music icon whose songs have been cherished for years. Each artist graced the stage performing one of Lee’s songs or their own hits. More than twenty artists, forty years of hits, and a sold-out arena proved that ‘America’s patriot’ Lee Greenwood continues to shine and impact lives everywhere he goes.
“It’s like attending the Grand Ole Opry, but amplified to the next level,” shared Jerry Hayes of Huntsville’s WHNT. “Where else can you see so many stars take the stage and play for a sold-out crowd? The audience remained on their feet throughout the night. They not only enjoyed the music but also felt an overwhelming surge of patriotic pride that swept across the arena, particularly during songs like Greenwood’s signature anthem, “God Bless the USA.”
