Fifty-nine years ago, soft-voiced singer and ace songwriter Bill Anderson whispered his way into Grand Ole Opry membership, where he’s been a mainstay ever since. “Whisperin'” Bill’s vocal style remains subdued in the present but his legendary gift for songwriting, which first garnered attention in 1958 with Ray Price’s rendition of “City Lights,” continues to resonate throughout country music. In 2018, Anderson earned membership in the multi-genre Songwriters Hall of Fame, having already been inducted into the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame and Country Music Hall of Fame.
