Lorrie Morgan, a two-time Country Music Association Award winner, is performing in Owensboro tonight at the RiverPark Center. Tickets are still available.
The show begins at 7 p.m., and tickets can be purchased here starting at $34.
Morgan, who describes herself as “one of the most eloquently emotive vocalists of modern times,” is currently working with award-winning producer Richard Landis for a new album.
Morgan is a Nashville native who is the daughter of Country Music Hall of Fame member George Morgan. She made her debut on the Grand Ole Opry stage at age 13, singing Paper Roses. She charted her first single in 1979 and was inducted into the Grand Ole Opry at just 24 years old.
Morgan achieved her greatest success between 1988 and 1999, recording for RCA Records and the defunct BNA Records. Her first three albums are all certified platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). The 1995 compilation Reflections: Greatest Hits is her best-selling album with a double-platinum certification; three others are certified gold.
Morgan has made more than 40 chart entries on the Billboard Hot Country Songs charts, including three number-one singles and 11 additional top-10 hits. Morgan has recorded in collaboration with her father, as well as Frank Sinatra, The Beach Boys, and Dolly Parton.
Morgan married fellow country singer Keith Whitley in 1986, though he died of an alcohol overdose in 1989. Their duet Til a Tear Becomes a Rose earned her a 1990 CMA award.
Morgan sang The Sad Cafe on Common Threads: Songs of the Eagles, which was named the CMA Album of the Year in 1994. Country fans voted Lorrie Morgan their TNN/Music City News Female Vocalist of the Year in 1994, 1996, 1997, and 1998.
