Molly Tuttle, Old Crow Medicine Show’s Ketch Secor Are Engaged

It looks like wedding bells are on the horizon for artists Molly Tuttle and Old Crow Medicine Show frontman Ketch Secor.

The longtime couple revealed that they were engaged on Wednesday (Dec. 3), showing off engagement photos on Instagram. They captioned the photos, “We first met at the Ryman Auditorium. We became friends, then harmony singers, then songwriters, then much more. This thanksgiving, in an old growth forest, with our families, we decided it’s time to make our biggest move yet, forever. ❤️”

Earlier this year, Secor released his solo album Story The Crow Told Me, while Tuttle released her album So Long Little Miss Sunshine. The two have been steady contributors to each other’s albums over the past few years, including Secor playing banjo, fiddle, mandolin and more on So Long Little Miss Sunshine, while Tuttle is featured on the final track of Story The Crow Told Me, “What Nashville Was.”

Several of the couple’s musical colleagues offered up congratulations, including Sierra Hull, who commented, “So excited for you guys!” and Gabe Lee, who wrote, “Whatta Ketch.” Artist-musician and 2024 CMA musician of the year winner Charlie Worsham also noted, “Hot dog!!! Congrats y’all, so happy and excited for you both!!!!”

Heading into next year’s Grammy Awards, Tuttle is nominated for best Americana performance for “That’s Gonna Leave a Mark” and best Americana album for So Long Little Miss Sunshine. To date, Tuttle has won two Grammys in the best bluegrass album category, for the albums City of Gold and Crooked Tree, while Secor’s work as part of Old Crow Medicine Show has earned two Grammys, for best folk album (Remedy) and best long form music video (“Big Easy Express”).
