Country, rock hall of famers, modern stars joined icon Ringo Starr at Nashville's Ryman Auditorium to celebrate the release of his album 'Look Up.'

Former Beatles drummer Ringo Starr has long threaded country music into his work, both as part of the Fab Four, and his decades of solo work. During his tenure with the Beatles, Starr sang lead on the Fab Four's cover of the Buck Owens classic "Act Naturally.

For the past two nights, Ringo Starr celebrated his new country album Look Up with guest-heavy performances at Nashville’s famed Ryman Auditorium, which were filmed for a TV special and became benefits for LA wildfire recovery.

The rhythmic sense that made Ringo a great rock drummer guides his vocals here. The result is relaxed authority that usually only a genius like Willie Nelson or Ray Charles can make sound so easy.

During one of his two nights performing at the Ryman, Ringo Starr was surprised by Emmylou Harris who invited the former Beatles drummer to make his Grand Ole Opry.

Produced by T Bone Burnett, Look Up features 11 songs with Ringo playing drums and singing on all of them. On some of the songs, he’s joined by other artists like Molly Tuttle, Billy Strings, Alison Krauss, Larkin Poe, and Lucius.
