Queen of Country Music Loretta Lynn to Perform at UCA

The Grammy award-winning artist Loretta Lynn will bring her timeless music to the University of Central Arkansas’s Reynolds Performance Hall on Jan. 22 at 7:30 p.m. as part of UCA’s Public Appearances.

Known as the “Coal Miner’s Daughter” due to her hit single, album, best-selling autobiography and an Oscar-winning film, Lynn has journeyed from the poverty of the Kentucky hills to Nashville superstardom to her current status as an honest-to-goodness American icon.

For more than four decades, Lynn has fashioned a body of work both artistically and commercially successful as well as culturally significant. 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.

Her most recent album, the Grammy award-winning album, Van Lear Rose, reminds the world yet again of Lynn
