Great female country singers become icons with just a single name. Dolly, Reba, Shania, Loretta . no one will ever ask Which one? in a conversation about these powerful country women.
The list goes on: Patsy, Miranda, Tammy, Martina even Taylor has a single moniker. There s no need for the Underwood in Carrie Underwood. A Rosanne by any other name will get you trampled by women named Alison, Crystal and Gretchen perhaps
especially Gretchen.
Country music s all-time greatest female artist is a mix of power and beauty. She s a savvy business woman with a strong catalog of hits and a tremendous influence on the next generation. No one would dare to mess with her, yet somehow she s universally regarded as one of the kindest figures the genre has ever known. Think you know who we re talking about? Because that description could be used for a dozen different country women.
