Lorrie Morgan to perform many of her iconic hits on Feb. 2
ORANGE PARK – Lorrie Morgan is a Nashville native and the daughter of Country Music Hall of Fame member George Morgan. She debuted on the Grand Ole Opry stage at age 13, singing “Paper Roses.”
Morgan married fellow country singer Keith Whitley in 1986. She was signed to RCA Records in 1987, and her onslaught of hits began the following year. Whitley’s tragic death of an alcohol overdose in 1989 left her a widowed working mother. Their duet “Til a Tear Becomes a Rose” earned her a 1990 CMA award.
She will appear at the Thrasher-Horne Center on Feb. 2 at 7:30 p.m. Tickets start at $29 and are available at the box office or thcenter.org.
Her first three albums, Leave the Light On (1989), Something in Red (1991) and Watch Me (1992), all earned Platinum Record awards. Her Greatest Hits collection (1999) is also Platinum. War Paint (1994), Greater Need (1996) and Shakin’ Things Up (1997) are all Gold Record winners.
She sang “The Sad Cafe” on Common Threads: Songs of the Eagles, which was named the CMA Album of the Year in 1994. Country fans voted Lorrie Morgan their TNN/Music City News Female Vocalist of the Year in 1994, 1996, 1997 and 1998.
Morgan has recorded in collaboration with her father, as well as Whitley, Frank Sinatra, Johnny Mathis, Tammy Wynette, The Beach Boys, Dolly Parton, Andy Williams, the New World Philharmonic and Pam Tillis. She’s also toured with George Jones and shared a stage with Jerry Lee Lewis.
