Black Opry member Autumn Nicholas had the audience on its feet with her emotional performance of “On a Sunday.” The real-life story song was inspired by Nicholas as an 11-year-old. As a child, she was often told Girls wear dresses … If you wanna be pretty then follow along. The memorable ballad of standing your ground was just as anthemic as it was vulnerable as she sang the house she thought was home / it felt so lonely. With powerhouse vocals and emotive lyrics while backed by the Rainbow Coalition Band, Nicholas’ rising star was evident at Bridgestone Arena.
