We spent the long holiday weekend near Nashville, TN, at a small Atherton family reunion that has become a recent tradition for us. I’m going to post more about this later, but I wanted to share something quickly while I was thinking about it.

The adults of the group attended the Grand Ole Opry on Saturday night, which was a lot of fun. It is also an interesting experience in that it combines traditional and contemporary country music and a whole lot of advertising (it’s a live radio show).

The last half-hour of the show was hosted by Ricky Skaggs and he brought along his in-laws in the form of the The Whites. The performed a beautiful trio of the traditional song, “Fair and Tender Ladies.”

Thanks to Grooveshark, you can hear the studio version of the song below:
