Carly Pearce Song Becomes Touching Tribute

Carly Pearce is a notable country singer and songwriter. With hits such as ‘Every Little Thing’ and ‘I Hope You’re Happy Now,’ Carly is no stranger to the stage.

In fact, it was one year ago that Carly stepped onto the Grand Ole Opry stage to perform her single, ‘Dear Miss Loretta’ from the album 29: Written In Stone.

Now, she’s back in the circle for an emotional performance in honor of the late legend.

“I ain't a coal miner's daughter but my grandmother was

Must be whiskey in the water, must be bourbon in the blood

I'm a long way from Kentucky but the hurtin's the same

Now I know why you sang that way”

On Instagram, Carly shared that when she first performed the song, she received an unexpected voicemail from Loretta. “Last night, I shared the recording for the first time in the circle once again right before I sang my song to her, as I honored her life & legacy. I hope this makes you smile, as you hear the essence of just how special this woman is, was and always will be.”

Rest in peace, Loretta.
