Loretta Lynn Visits Ray Stevens’ CabaRay

Music icon Loretta Lynn paid incoming Country Music Hall of Famer Ray Stevens a special visit over the holiday weekend. On Friday, July 5, Lynn attended one of Stevens’ live concerts at his West Nashville showroom, CabaRay.

“I was so honored that my very dear friend Loretta Lynn and her family visited the CabaRay Friday night,” notes Stevens. “Like I told the audience, ‘There are queens and first ladies of country music, but there’s only one Coal Miner’s Daughter!’ Bless you Loretta. You are a treasure!”

Stevens hosted Lynn and her group in the Owen Bradley VIP booth where they dined and watched the legendary singer perform many of his hit songs including “Everything Is Beautiful,” “The Streak,” “Gitarzan” and “Mississippi Squirrel Revival.”

“It was a huge treat for me to go to Ray Stevens’ show at CabaRay this past weekend. He kept me laughing the whole time!” says Lynn. “He’s such a wonderful entertainer. I am so happy that he’ll be inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame this year. Love you, Ray. Keep the laughs coming!”
