“This song has always meant so much to our family,” says Tayla. “Getting to sing it in my own voice while staying true to what Memaw created was an emotional experience.”

Singin’ Loretta marks Tayla’s second full-length solo album and features a collection of beloved songs that celebrate the spirit and strength of Loretta Lynn’s music. Alongside “Blue Kentucky Gir,” the album includes favorites like "Rated ‘X’," "Out Of My Head And Back In My Bed," "One’s On the Way," "Don't Come Home A Drinkin' (with Lovin' On Your Mind)," and "You’re Lookin’ at Country," as well as lesser-known treasures like "There He Goes" and "The Titanic." Singin’ Loretta will be available on May 30th.

Tayla Lynn always knew music would be her path, with no “Plan B” in sight. Performing at a young age with her grandmother, she later collaborated with songwriting legends like James House, Gary Burr, Leslie Satcher, and Jon Randall. After earning a development deal with RCA, she met Caroline Hobby and Jennifer Wayne through mentor Anastasia Brown, forming the trio Stealing Angels.

From 2007 to 2012, they toured the country, performed for troops in Iraq and Kuwait, and worked with Grammy-winning producer Paul Worley. Following her marriage and motherhood, Tayla moved to Seattle, where the music scene reignited her passion. Returning to Tennessee, she resumed performing with her grandmother and launched Twitty and Lynn with Tre Twitty in 2018. Performing over 100 shows annually, they released their debut album Cookin' Up Lovin' in April 2024. Tayla also released Tayla Lynn Sings Loretta Lynn in 2022, a tribute to her grandmother, with her follow-up album Singin’ Loretta set for 2025. Writing with Mark Narmore and Scott Baggett, she continues to blend her own life experiences with the stories of the women who came before her.
