It's been less than a week since Breanna Nix placed third in American Idol, and already doors are opening for her to share her faith on a bigger stage.
The Christian country singer announced Thursday that she will be performing at the Grand Ole Opry on June 5, 2025.
"I’m beyond overjoyed," said Nix. "This moment has been on my bucket list for years, and getting to finally check it off feels surreal."
This is the first big performance for Nix since the show ended last Sunday.
Breanna Nix, whose goal is to save souls and sing to the bound and broken, says she gives all the glory to God.
"I did not expect to make it through, but I told God if I did, I would put him first and that I would share all the things that I need to share, no matter how hard or humble I have to be because I want to strengthen somebody through my testimony and I want someone to know Jesus through my story and everything my family has been through."
Fans of Nix quickly responded to the news on social media.
"This is the greatest news! Thank you for shining His light and love in the world," said one fan.
"Look at God! He’s already opening up yours for you and giving you huge opportunities. Congratulations!" said another fan.
It will be a night filled with worship as other great Christian artists grace the stage at the Grand Ole Opry, including Steven Curtis Chapman and Brandon Lake.
"I’m so grateful for this opportunity and can’t wait to step into that circle. Hope to see y’all there!"
