The singer that transformed country into Pop with “Crazy”

Remembering Patsy Cline on her birthday



Today on September 8th 1932, country singer Patsy Cline was born Virginia Patterson Hensley in Winchester, Virginia. One of the first country musicians to successfully cross over the pop charts, Cline had many hits including “Walkin’ After Midnight“, “I Fall to Pieces”, “She’s Got You”, “Crazy” and “Sweet Dreams”. She died at the age of 30 in a multiple-fatality crash of the private plane of her manager, Randy Hughes. Her legacy still lives on through millions of records sold and as the first female solo artist inducted to the Country Music Hall of Fame.
