Loretta Lynn Cancels More Shows Following Stroke

Loretta Lynn has cancelled two concerts next month due to unforeseen circumstances.

Loretta was set to hit the stage in Iowa on July 7 and 21, for her first shows after suffering a stroke in May; however, the performances have now been axed for an undisclosed reason.

“Due to circumstances beyond our control, the Loretta Lynn date scheduled for July in Dubuque has been canceled,” a message on Facebook posted by representatives from one of the venues reads.

Lynn is still scheduled to return to public life at the Tennessee Motorcycle and Music Revival in September. Earlier this week, it was announced she will open her ranch for the four-day festival, which will culminate with Lynn and others performing onstage on October 1.

Proceeds from the inaugural event will benefit Mission 22, an organisation that provides treatment programs for those suffering from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder.

“The goal of this event is to feature music representative of the incredible musicians, songwriters and performers of the area and to fulfill what many motorcycle enthusiasts have been asking for – a destination event in a unique location that celebrates the rhythm of a great road trip,” Loretta’s granddaughter Tayla Lynn explains.

“While motorcyclists know what it takes to have a good ride, adding a great destination can make for the perfect trip. Ride the rolling hills of Tennessee, visit the area’s unique attractions, and come back to Loretta’s Ranch for fun and great music with fellow riders.”

Loretta is reportedly still recovering at a rehabilitation center following her medical emergency on May 5.

I could go to a James Taylor show just for the stories. The man is a part of music history and is still around to tell the tales of how it all began. Like, for instance, being the first artist signed to Apple Records. James “auditioned” for Apple with his song ‘Something In The Way She Moves’. "Paul went away and started the label and George went away and wrote the song”, he said.
