Nashville, Tenn.—( October 1, 2007 ) Wake up, little Susie, wake up. The Everly Brothers may not personally be able to wake each guest, but Gaylord Opryland® Resort & Convention Center has made it easier to get a little closer to some top entertainers every morning.Gaylord Opryland has unveiled its Waking With the Stars program, which allows guests to receive wake-up calls from a list of popular singers. Working with the world-famous Grand Ole Opry®, stars like Trace Adkins, George Jones, Vince Gill and Pam Tillis have each recorded their own personal message for this system. Other artists currently available for selection include Montgomery Gentry, Wynonna and Kellie Pickler.
