The Lynn family’s musical talent shines through as Tayla Lynn performs her grandma Loretta Lynn’s hit “Coal Miner’s Daughter” in a heartwarming acoustic session. Tayla’s big smile and passionate delivery bring joy to anyone watching. Her voice, with just the right twang, echoes Loretta’s classic sound perfectly.
Backed by a three-piece band featuring two guitarists and a violinist, Tayla’s rendition of “Coal Miner’s Daughter” offers a fresh yet faithful acoustic arrangement. Tayla’s natural performance and ability to carry a tune make it a real treat.
Country fans have embraced Tayla’s version, with 1.4 million YouTube views and comments praising her heartfelt performance. One fan noted, “I can’t imagine how much this song means to her knowing that it’s about her ancestors. She must be extremely proud!” Another commented, “You give me goosebumps. Your nanna would be so proud – she was an amazing singer as are you. Absolutely beautiful.”
Inspired by her father, Ernest Ray Lynn, and grandma Loretta, Tayla pursued music from an early age. Her 2021 album, *Tayla Lynn Sings Loretta Lynn*, features her “Coal Miner’s Daughter” cover and was released on Heart of Texas Records.
Loretta Lynn, the original “Coal Miner’s Daughter,” passed away at 90 on October 4, 2022. She had the chance to hear Tayla’s 2021 cover, which surely made her proud. Loretta wrote and released the autobiographical song in 1970, recounting her childhood and her father’s life as a coal miner in Kentucky during the Great Depression.
