Tim McGraw: Music City Rodeo Performance Was a Family Affair

On Saturday, Tim McGraw took the stage for the first Music City Rodeo in Nashville with some very special guests by his side. During his rendition of “Last Dollar (Fly Away),” the country music legend surprised the audience by inviting his daughters, Gracie, Maggie, and Audrey, onto the stage. Music Mayhem posted a video of the touching family moment, which shows all four members of the McGraw clan singing together.

McGraw smiled throughout the performance, and the audience sang along. Fans flocked to the comments section of the video to show their support for McGraw and his daughters. “So beautiful,” one fan wrote. “One of my all time favorites from Tim.” Another fan pointed out that Maggie McGraw bears a strong resemblance to their mother, Faith Hill.

McGraw’s daughters sang the song’s final chorus with him, but the moment grew into something even more special with an adorable blast from the past. As Hello! reported, a video of the women performing the song with McGraw as children began playing on the screen behind them. It was an emotional moment for the siblings, with Audrey saying “I’m going to cry,” to her sisters.

McGraw hugged his daughters when the song ended, remarking to the audience that they have all grown into adults now. Hello! also revealed that Gracie shared a clip of the performance to her Instagram stories, writing: “I continue to be a sappy sister and daughter.”

Of course, McGraw’s Music City Rodeo performance wouldn’t truly be a family affair without acknowledging the clan’s matriarch. As Hello! shared, the country singer introduced himself to the cheering crowd as, “Tim, better known as Faith’s husband.” Although Hill herself has been out of the spotlight for quite some time, this sweet, simple shout-out reminded fans just how important she is to McGraw.

This inaugural concert wasn’t just a big night for Nashville, but for the country singer as well. McGraw took a step back from live performances due to health concerns, and this show, full of some of the greatest hits from his catalog, represents his triumphant return to the stage.
