Shepherd was just 16 years old when she won The Voice in 2018. Since then, Shepherd has been recording and performing music, including her “Lookin’ for Loretta” single, honoring the late Loretta Lynn — and earning high praise from Lynn’s family as a result.
“We are such huge [Chevel Shepherd] fans,” the family said when “Lookin’ for Loretta” was released. “She won our hearts singing mom’s songs on American Idol [sic]. “Mom was so proud to meet her and cheer her on when Chevel came as her guest to her big birthday bash at Bridgestone. We love this new song!”
Shepherd later commented on their tribute, saying, “I grew up loving Loretta and I am so blessed to get to honor her on this new song. I dedicated this song to Loretta when I recorded it and that still holds true. I love you,”
