The Pines Theater in Lufkin just made the announcement on their Facebook Page that the legendary Crystal Gayle will be coming to the historic venue for a performance on Thursday, June 23.  The concert is set to start at 7 p.m.

Gayle's Grammy Award winning "Don't It Make My Brown Eyes Blue" is considered one of the best country songs of all time.

Crystal Gayle, who is the sister of Loretta Lynn and cousin of Patty Loveless, has had  dozens of chart-topping songs.  In 1974, she had her first top ten song with 'Wrong Road Again', and then from the mid-1970s through the mid-1980s her songs were commonplace on the country hit list.

Here are just a few of her number one songs:

  • Don't it Make My Brown Eyes Blue
  • I'll Get Over You
  • You Never Miss a Real Good Thing
  • Talking in Your Sleep
  • Why Have You Left the One You Left Me For
  • It's Like We Never Said Goodbye
  • Too Many Lovers
  • You and I (with Eddie Rabbitt)
  • Our Love is on the Faultline

Reba McEntire's former Nashville mansion is now turning into a 5-star resort. The 13,000-square-foot home on 83 acres in Lebanon, Tenn., features seven bedrooms, five full bathrooms, a chef’s kitchen, home theater, wine room, eight-car garage, pool, guest house, barn and more.

The bedrooms have been decorated to pay tribute to McEntire, Patsy Cline, Willie Nelson, Garth Brooks, Dolly Parton, Loretta Lynn and Johnny Cash.

With recent additions over the last few years, the space is now set to become a resort and spa that's "the ideal setting for nationally recognized corporate events, retreats, charity galas, weddings, concerts and ticketed events."
