The Grand Ole Opry has some good bluegrass on tap this weekend, during both the Friday and Saturday night radio broadcasts.

Friday (7/6) has Mountain Heart in the 10:00-10:30 p.m. slot, and Jesse McReynolds in the 10:30-11:00 segment.

On the big Saturday night show (7/7), Mountain Heart is back (9:00-9:30, 11:00-11:30 slots), as is Bobby Osborne & Rocky Top X-Press (8:00-8:30 slot), Dale Ann Bradley (8:30-9:00 and 11:30-12:00 slots) and Mike Snider (7:30-8:00 and 10:30-11:00). All times are eastern.

As always, the Opry broadcasts can be heard online via streaming audio from the WSM web site, and their radio can be heard over a wide portion of the southern and central US at 650 AM. Friday’s show runs from 9:00-11:00 p.m., and Saturday’s from 7:30 p.m. until 12:30 a.m.

Highlights of the audio broadcast will be available early next week in the WSM audio archives if you miss the broadcasts.
