An Evening with Loretta Lynn

Loretta Lynn’s instantly recognizable delivery is one of the greatest country-music voices in history. She refused to be any man’s doormat, challenged female rivals, showed tremendous blue-collar pride, and was unafraid of controversy. Like the lady herself, Loretta Lynn’s songs shoot from the hip.

2010 marked the 50th anniversary of Loretta’s arrival on the music scene with her 1960 debut single, “I’m a Honky Tonk Girl.” Almost on the exact date of her golden anniversary in show business, the Recording Academy gave her its Lifetime Achievement Award.

Loretta has won various Female Vocalist of the Year trophies as well as a long string of Duet of the Year awards for her work with Conway Twitty. Additional awards include Gold record plaques, several Grammys, and more recently, an induction into the national Songwriters Hall of Fame. She was also the first woman in history to win the Country Music Association’s Entertainer of the Year trophy.

Her classics include ”Coal Miner’s Daughter,” “Somebody Somewhere,” “I Lie,” “Heart Don’t Do This To Me,” and many more.
