Taking to the Grand Ole Opry stage for this one-of-a-kind performance, Krauss and Paisley break hearts as they sing this chilling ode known as “Whiskey Lullaby”.
Penned by country great Bill Anderson and country singer/songwriter, Jon Randall, this unforgettable song is a dazzling ballad that exposes the pain and devastation caused by a breakup – and tells the story of a man falling victim to alcoholism and drinking himself to death over a broken heart, later succeeded by his former lover drinking herself to death from living with the guilt of his passing.
