Loretta Lynn to hit Harrah’s stage
Country music legend Loretta Lynn will perform at 7:30 p.m. Saturday, April 11, at Harrah’s Cherokee.
For 50 years now, Lynn has fashioned a body of work as artistically and commercially successful-and as culturally significant-as any female performer you'd care to name. Her music has confronted many of the major social issues of her time, and her life story is a rags-to-riches tale familiar to pop, rock and country fans alike.
The Coal Miner's Daughter — the tag refers to a hit single, an album, a best-selling autobiography, an Oscar-winning film, and to Lynn herself, who has journeyed from the poverty of the Kentucky hills to Nashville superstardom to her current status as a honest-to-goodness American icon. Her latest album, the Jack White-produced “Van Lear Rose,” is poised now to remind the world yet again of Lynn's power as a vocalist and her skill as a songwriter.
