In the Austin City Limits studio, Trisha Yearwood stood onstage, ready to perform – despite it being her very own induction ceremony into the ACL Hall of Fame. The moment became even more special when she invited fellow country singer Ronnie Dunn to join her. Both rising to fame in the ’90s, they have long admired each other’s work. Ronnie revealed that he had personally requested to sing Trisha’s song, ‘I’ll Carry You Home,’ believing it to be an overlooked gem worthy of celebration.

Whenever I hear ‘I’ll Carry You Home’ I find myself astonished by the way Trisha has managed to blend her iconic country style with the depth of soul music. With Ronnie’s powerful voice complementing hers, the song rose to impressive and emotional new heights that will take any Music Man fan’s breath away. Online viewers felt the same way, one commenting, “two of the purest and most beautiful voices in all of music!” on the video, which has now received over 1.6M views.

Considering Trisha’s enormous contribution to country music, her induction into the ACL Hall of Fame was the perfect opportunity for fans and musicians alike to celebrate her extensive career. The performance of her optimistic song ‘I’ll Carry You Home’ is a perfect example of the joy and comfort her music has provided for listeners over the years. The song is deeply meaningful to her, and she has described it as being about both her relationship with God and with her husband – Garth Brooks.

Being married to another country music legend means there have been many musical collaborations between the two over the years. However, one of their most significant joint performances occurred in early 2025, when they performed at former President Jimmy Carter’s funeral. Together, they performed a breathtaking duet of John Lennon’s Imagine—a song that was a favorite of President Carter, and one that has offered comfort and hope to people across the globe too.
