Kenny Chesney, Tony Brown and June Carter Cash became the newest members of the Country Music Hall of Fame earlier this week in Nashville, Tennessee. Now, you can take a look back at the highlight moments from the star-studded Medallion Ceremony in a recap shared by the Hall of Fame on Friday (October 24).

“All three of the new inductees have left indelible impacts on the genre and firmly established themselves as unforgettable contributors to Country Music,” Kyle Young, Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum Chief Executive Officer, said in a statement when the 2025 class was revealed earlier this year. “North Carolina native Tony Brown is a trailblazing record producer and executive who has helped shape the sound of modern Country since the 1980s, supervising many best-selling records while also ushering in outsider talents to the genre. Virginia-born June Carter Cash was a vibrant torchbearer of her family’s enduring Country Music legacy who forged her own distinctive path during her more than 60-year career as a beloved singer, comedienne and songwriter. And Kenny Chesney, from Tennessee, has maintained one of the biggest hitmaking careers in Country Music since 2000, with more than 50 Top 10 hits, 16 Platinum albums, and is a regular top touring act who continues to delight audiences. Fittingly, they will now forever be enshrined in the Country Music Hall of Fame with their illustrious peers who shaped our art form.”

Throughout the evening, surprise performers paid tribute to each of the inductees. That includes Kacey Musgraves and Daniel Tashian, Keb' Mo’ and Ruby Amanfu, Lukas Nelson, Lyle Lovett, Steve Earle, Trisha Yearwood, George Strait, Kelsea Ballerini, Megan Moroney and Eric Church. Emmylou Harris, Vince Gill and Joe Galante shared heartfelt remarks to the inductees, and presented them with their medallions. John Anderson, who was inducted into the Hall of Fame last year with Toby Keith and James Burton, closed the ceremony by leading a traditional performance of “Will the Circle Be Unbroken.”
