Country music legend Loretta Lynn turns 87 on April 14, and Nashville will be throwing a giant party for the “Coal Miner’s Daughter” singer.
Garth Brooks, Keith Urban, George Strait, Trisha Yearwood and Darius Rucker will be among the stars performing April 1 in a concert at Bridgestone Arena, WSMV reported Monday.
The concert will be called "Loretta Lynn: An All-Star Birthday Celebration," The Tennessean reported.
"This is the first time I've ever had a birthday party! My birthday wish has come true. The only other wish I have is that Keith Urban jumps out of my birthday cake!" Lynn said a news release, WSMV reported.
Lynn, who suffered a stroke in May 2017 and a broken hip in January 2018, said during a news conference that she "felt great," Rolling Stone reported. It is not clear whether Lynn will perform during the concert, the magazine reported. Her last public performance came in October 2017 at the Tennessee Motorcycle and Music Revival at her ranch in Hurricane Mills, Tennessee, Rolling Stone reported.
Her last album, “Wouldn’t It Be Great,” was released in September 2018.
April’s show will benefit the Opry Trust Fund and the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum. Rolling Stone reported.
Tickets go on sale at 10 a.m. CST Friday at Ticketmaster.com and BridgestoneArena.com. Prices range from $29.50 to 149.50, along with applicable fees, WSMV reported.
