Crystal Gayle

Crystal Gayle rose to prominence in the 1970s as a country music vocalist from Kentucky, though she was originally born Brenda Gail Webb. The younger sister of Loretta Lynn, Crystal Gayle developed a smoother, more pop-influenced sound that distinguished her from traditional country artists of the era. "Don't It Make My Brown Eyes Blue" (1977) became her biggest crossover hit, earning her a Grammy Award and establishing her as a major force in country-pop music.
