At the Ryman is a 1992 live album by Emmylou Harris, recorded at the Ryman Auditorium, the original location of the Grand Ole Opry, in Nashville, Tennessee. Harris had disbanded her legendary Hot Band and the album features her then newly formed acoustic backing band, the Nash Ramblers:
- Sam Bush, fiddle, mandolin & vocals
- Roy Huskey, Jr., bass & vocals
- Larry Atamanuik, drums
- Al Perkins, banjo, guitar, dobro & vocals
- John Randall Stewart, guitar, mandolin & vocals
Though the album received almost no airplay on commercial country radio, it charted and was critically well received. It was credited with helping renew interest in restoring the Ryman, which had more or less sat vacant since 1974.
