But this Sunday evening, on May 15 at 6 EST, fans will have the chance to be a part of the celebration. “Naomi Judd: A River of Time Celebration” will be aired live and commercial-free from the iconic and Mother Church of Country Music Ryman Auditorium in Nashville, Tennessee. This is in partnership with Judd’s family, the Country Music Television (CMT), and Sandbox entertainment. In a statement of the CMT Producers, they said that the special will celebrate the legendary artist’s ‘timeless voice, unforgettable spirit and the immense impact she left on our genre through the best form of healing we have – music.’

Additional details such as performers and special appearances have yet to be announced, so stay tuned.
