Randy Travis Surprises Crowd With Performance At Tribute Concert

Music City came together in a big way Wednesday night (February 8) to honor Country Music Hall of Famer Randy Travis. 

The star-studded tribute included performances from Garth Brooks, Kane Brown, Chris Young, Josh Turner, Scotty McCreery, Neal McCoy, Alison Krauss, Jamey Johnson, Chris Janson, Kenny Rogers, William Michael Morgan and Alabama. In front of thousands of fans, each artist took their turn on stage performing a Randy Travis tune or a song that meant something to Travis. 

The big question of the night was whether or not the man himself would get behind the microphone. Last year, Travis shocked fans when he sang ‘Amazing Grace’ during his Country Music Hall of Fame induction. Last night, fans were once again treated to a surprise as Travis concluded the tribute concert by leading the crowd in ‘Amazing Grace.’ 

The emotional moment was caught on tape by excited fans and shared on social media. See a clip of Randy Travis singing ‘Amazing Grace’ below. 

Seriously the most amazing and sweet thing I have witnessed in a while! So fortunate to see it in person! #amazinggrace #randytravis #herosandfriends #tribute #nashville
