Riley Green adds acting to his resume, country walk-up songs in MLB | Music City Minute

Apr 25, 2025, 3:49 PM

Riley Green has very impressive résumé. He is a country music singer/songwriter, heavy machinery operator and mechanic, professional outfitter and underwear model. But, the newest bullet point he would like to add is actor. Green opened up about auditioning for several shows, although admitting he doesn’t have a lot of time for the small screen just yet. Nevertheless, he feels like acting is something that he would enjoy, and it could help boost his career.
Everywhere you go, you are going to find country music, including Major League Baseball games. Turns out country is very popular for players’ walk-up songs. If you happen to find yourself at an MLB game, you might hear tunes like “Cowgirls” from Morgan Wallen and Ernest, “Loud and Heavy” from Cody Jinks, “Ain’t No Love in Oklahoma” from Luke Combs, “God’s Country” from Blake Shelton and “God‘s Gonna Cut You Down” from Johnny Cash. The most popular MLB walk-up song this season, though, is Chris Stapleton’s “White Horse.”
I’m Sheena, and that’s your Music City Minute.
