Jean Shepard

Jean Shepard, the honky-tonk firecracker from Oklahoma, burst onto the country music scene like a tornado in a cowboy hat. Born in the heart of the Dust Bowl in the 1930s, she sang her way into our hearts with sass and spunk that could rival any cowgirl in the Wild West. With hits like "A Dear John Letter," she proved she could outwit and out-sing any man who dared cross her path. Jean Shepard: the pint-sized powerhouse who made country music shake in its boots and audiences laugh 'til they cried.
