Kacey Musgraves Honors Loretta Lynn With ‘Coal Miner’s Daughter’ Performance in Red Dress & Barefoot at Grammy Awards 2023

Kacey Musgraves paid homage to the late music legend Loretta Lynn during the Grammy Awards 2023 tonight in Los Angeles.

For this year’s memorial segment, the six-time Grammy-award-winning artist sang Lynn’s famous song “Coal Miner’s Daughter” on an Epiphone guitar once owned by Lynn.

For her emotional performance, Musgraves went barefoot, sitting on a stool in a red maxi dress. The ensemble featured sheer paneling and pronounced short sleeves.

This was her second look of the night. Earlier on the red carpet, celebrity stylist Erica Cloud dressed the singer in a custom pink Valentino look with baby pink suede pumps for footwear.
