Trisha Yearwood Exhibit Coming To Country Music Hall of Fame

Trisha Yearwood

Trisha Yearwood is the latest artist to be honored with an upcoming exhibit in the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum. The singer, entertainer, best-selling author and cooking show host will be the focus of the new exhibition, Trisha Yearwood: The Song Remembers When.

The exhibition will open July 3 and run through December 2015. Visitors can view stage clothes, awards, photos, cooking items, and other memorabilia from Yearwood’s personal collection.

Trisha Yearwood: The Song Remembers When will chronicle Yearwood’s life, career, beginning in her hometown of Monticello, Ga.  After moving to Music City and graduating from Nashville’s Belmont University, Yearwood began her career in music, spending time first as a tour guide at the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum and a receptionist at a record company.

“With a powerful voice and inspiring music, Trisha is an extremely talented, award-winning singer and long-time friend of the museum, dating back to her days as a tour guide here at the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum. We’re proud to host her exhibit,” said museum CEO Kyle Young. “She was the first female country singer to have a debut album sell one million copies in its first year, driven by her first No. 1 single ‘She’s in Love with the Boy.’ And that was only her first milestone. This exhibit shares her story—from small-town roots to platinum albums.”

Her array of hit singles includes “Believe Me Baby (I Lied),” “Walkaway Joe,” Wrong Side of Memphis,” “XXX’s and OOO’s (An American Girl),” “Perfect Love,” and numerous others.

The Grand Ole Opry member has established a multi-faceted career, including authoring three New York Times best-selling cookbooks, and a gig as host of the Emmy-Award winning Food Network show, Trisha’s Southern Kitchen, which is currently in its sixth season. This spring, Yearwood released a new line of cookware, Trisha’s Precious Metals, and unveiled her own line of furniture, The Trisha Yearwood Home Collection, in partnership with Klaussner Home furnishings.
