Dolly Parton, Miranda Lambert, Reba McEntire, and More Honor Loretta Lynn
The influence of Loretta Lynn, who died on October 4 at 90, has become wildly apparent over the past decade and change. Carly Pearce sang a song called “Dear Miss Loretta” on her 2021 album 29; Margo Price named her 2016 album Midwest Farmer’s Daughter as an homage to Lynn’s Coal Miner’s Daughter; and over a dozen artists, including Miranda Lambert, Carrie Underwood, Sheryl Crow, Reba McEntire, Paramore, Martina McBride, and Lucinda Williams, honored Lynn with covers and duets on the 2010 album Coal Miner’s Daughter: A Tribute to Loretta Lynn and the 2021 album Still Woman Enough.
A statement from the family of Loretta Lynn.
"Our precious mom, Loretta Lynn, passed away peacefully this morning, October 4th, in her sleep at home at her beloved ranch in Hurricane Mills.” The family of Loretta Lynn.

Those artists are just some of the many paying tribute to Lynn’s six decades of truth-telling lyrics and a career that broke barriers for women in country music. Homages also came from Dolly Parton, Kacey Musgraves, Maren Morris, Mickey Guyton, Barbara Mandrell, Ashley McBryde, Carole King, Stella Parton, and Valerie June. (And women aren’t the only ones to recognize Lynn’s genius: the Drive-By Truckers’ Patterson Hood, Parker McCollum, and Blake Shelton also honored her.) “I sure appreciate her paving the rough and rocky road for all us girl singers,” McEntire wrote on Instagram. “It’s safe to say I wouldn’t even be making country music today if it weren’t for Loretta Lynn,” tweeted Price. “We’ve been like sisters all the years we’ve been in Nashville and she was a wonderful human being, wonderful talent, had millions of fans, and I’m one of them,” wrote Dolly Parton, who collaborated with Lynn and Tammy Wynette on the 1993 album Honky Tonk Angels.

It’s safe to say I wouldn’t even be making country music today if it weren’t for Loretta Lynn. She showed me up what it looked like to be a musician and a mama. Her writing was as real as the day is long. This one hurts on another level. I’ll miss her forever. pic.twitter.com/xpQZwp4TnB

She showed us all how to unapologetically tell the truth. One of the greatest there ever will be. I’ll be singing “Dear Miss Loretta” with a little extra love tonight at the @opry ♥️ Now she really is a Honky Tonk Angel ? #RIP pic.twitter.com/fiUNnTrlvZ

Loretta Lynn was one of my favorite songwriters ever. A huge influence on my own writing. Her records from the 60’s and 70’s still shine amongst the best country records ever as was her “comeback” record Van Lear Rose. Her singing was as soulful as anyone ever. RIP.

Goodbye to another dear friend, @lorettalynnofficial. She was the reason that I fell in love with #countrymusic. When I was 13, she said to me, “Never stop singing!” ? Heaven definitely received a true angel in this “Honky Tonk Girl”! #RIP ? #icon #lorettalynn pic.twitter.com/4997t3gQCk
