Description
Morgan is best known for her time on the country charts with hit singles in the late '80s and early '90s. Born Loretta Lynn Morgan, the daughter of George Morgan, it was clear from an early age that Lorrie was meant for the world of country music. The singer-songwriter made her first appearance on Nashville's Grand Ole Opry stage at the young age of 13 when she joined her father to perform his song "Paper Roses."
In the early '80s, Morgan toured the nightclub circuit and was an opening act for various musicians including Billy ThunderKloud & the Chieftones, Jeannie Seely, and Jack Greene. She was even a backing vocalist for George Jones. After a couple of record deals that resulted in decent singles, Morgan signed with RCA Records.
Morgan's first single with RCA, "Trainwreck of Emotion," debuted in 1988 and hit No. 20 on the Billboard country chart. Her first album, Leave the Light On, included multiple top 10 hits ("Dear Me," "Out of Your Shoes") as well as her first No. 1 song, "Five Minutes." She scored additional No. 1's with "What Part of No" and "I Didn't Know My Own Strength."
With her classic songs of heartbreak, healing, and independence, Morgan continues to influence rising country artists.
