The following information was posted on the singers website: Lorettalynn.com:

American country music legend Loretta Lynn is at home recuperating from a recent fall that left her unable to perform on Labor Day weekend at her ranch in Hurricane Mills, Tennessee.

Regrettably, Loretta will have to postpone the following shows until further notice:

September 9: Renfro Valley Entertainment, Renfro Valley, KY
