Since 1996, Austin artists have paid birthday tribute to Loretta Lynn with a pie social – inspired by the contest where the country legend met her husband when she was 15. Lynn passed away last year at age 90, but the tradition continues with a slew of artists honoring the Coal Miner’s Daughter, led by rockabilly queens Rosie Flores and Southern Culture on the Skids’ Mary Huff. Other honky-tonk angels include Brennen Leigh, Amber Digby, Marti Brom, Summer Dean, Teri Joyce, Janet Lynn, and Kathryn Legendre, while Shinyribs’ Kevin Russell leads the pie auction – all benefiting the SIMS Foundation.
