Lorrie Morgan

About Lorrie Morgan:
Lorrie Morgan was barely a teenager when she
made her first major appearance in 1975 singing
“Paper Roses” with her dad, country star George
Morgan on the Grand Ole Opry. Since that
fateful night, Lorrie has never looked back. Her
whirlwind life and career has engrained in her a
confident sense of self that shines through on her
latest recordings like the late afternoon sun glows
through the stained-glass windows of the Ryman
Auditorium.
When her father passed away in 1975 Lorrie
didn’t miss a beat in carrying on his legacy. She
took to the road with her dad’s band and toured the country, keeping his memory alive and
winning countless fans along the way. The music industry soon recognized that Lorrie’s star was
on the rise and in 1984 she made history when at age twenty-five she was the youngest person
ever to become a member of the Grand Ole Opry.
It wasn’t long before she was offered a recording contract with RCA and later with sister label
BNA, and a string of hits began. Timeless country standards like “Five Minutes,” “Something in
Red,” “Watch Me” and “What Part of No” established Lorrie as a bona
fide country star.
Lorrie has built a reputation as an artist who
knows a great song when she hears one. The
proof is in her legacy of mining Nashville’s
songwriting community throughout her career
and finding hits. Her latest offering, I Walk
Alone, is a labor of love that has been a
lifetime in the making. The twelve songs she
co-wrote and co-produced for I Walk Alone
find Lorrie in a particularly introspective and
vulnerable place in her life. Cuts including
“Mirror, Mirror,” “Woman Thing,” and the title
cut offer Lorrie’s fans a rare look into the life
of the woman whose life has quite literally
been lived out on stage.
Always an over-achiever, Lorrie has also
completed an album of “evergreen” classics,complete with an all-star cast of musicians and guests. Recorded entirely live in the studio with
producer Wally Wilson at the controls, A Moment In Time captures the essence of Lorrie’s
sultry, flawless vocals as she delivers timeless classics including “Are You Lonesome Tonight,”
“By the Time I Get to Phoenix,” “After the Fire is Gone” (duet with Tracy Lawrence, and “Easy
Lovin’” (duet with Raul Malo).
Larry King once asked Lorrie about her turbulent lifestyle and she told him “drama is something
that lets you know you’re alive.” Although she’s had her share of drama in both music and her
personal life, Lorrie has taken it all in stride.
Lorrie Morgan’s trophy room is adorned with reminders of milestones that include fourteen top-
ten hits, twelve albums, seven of which have gone gold and platinum, and four Female Vocalist
of the Year awards. Her duet partners have included the likes of Frank Sinatra and The Beach
Boys. With all these accomplishments it would be easy for her to rest on her laurels. But that’s
just not Lorrie.
Lorrie Morgan has a lot left to do. In addition to her new recording projects, she maintains a
rigorous touring schedule is currently at work on several new business endeavors. She’s living
up to her reputation as one of country music’s premiere singers, and she’ll be entertaining us all
for a long time to come.
