The Country Music Hall of Fame does a great job featuring artists with exhibits that only run for a few months, and they have announced that Trisha Yearwood is next up to receive the featured treatment!  The exhibit will open July 3rd and run through December 2015.  Here’s an excerpt from the Hall of Fame’s website about the announcement:

Trisha Yearwood: The Song Remembers When will chronicle Yearwood’s life, career, and critically acclaimed musical achievements. The story begins in her tiny hometown, Monticello, Georgia, and is followed by a move to Nashville, where Yearwood becomes a music business major at Belmont University. In Music City the future three-time Grammy award-winning artist 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. Now, millions of albums and countless accolades later, Yearwood is among the best-selling female artists in country music history.

“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 #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.”
