During the Grand Ole Opry’s 100th anniversary celebration on March 19, 2025, Vince Gill delivered a profoundly emotional performance that resonated deeply with the audience.

Taking the stage at the historic Opry House in Nashville, Tennessee, Gill performed his poignant song “Go Rest High on That Mountain,” dedicating it to his mother, who was turning 100, and his late brother, Bob.​

Before beginning the song, Gill addressed the audience, saying, “I want you to think about someone you’ve lost. This one is for my mother — she turns 100 this year. This is about her son.”
