Tragedy in the country music world. With heavy hearts, we announce the passing
Lauren Alaina canceled her upcoming shows to mourn her father’s death, sharing on social media, “I really don’t have words yet.” She informed fans about canceling performances in Savannah, Virginia Beach, and Charlotte, saying she needs to be with her family.
Many country music stars offered condolences. Jake Owen wrote, “I’m so sorry for your loss, Lauren. Love and strength from my family to you.” MacKenzie Porter added, “We will pray for you and your family.”
Weeks before, Alaina had paid tribute to her father on Father’s Day, posting, “Happy Fathers Day to ‘my old man’ with a heart the size of Texas!! I love you so much daddy and hope you have the best day fishin’.” The post included pictures of them together, including one from her wedding day where her father was in tears.
