The single is now available through all digital retailers.
My friend owns a beauty salon just south of Nashville in Brentwood, Tennessee and has had the pleasure of doing Loretta Lynn’s hair and makeup over the years. She told me many moons ago, when I first moved to town, that every time she sits down with Miss Loretta, she looks at her in the mirror and says, ‘Jack it to Jesus and spray it to hell!.’ Talking about her hair. I told her over and over again that someday I was going to write her that song until the day I finally sat down and wrote it with award-winning producer and songwriter, Jesse Frasure. I love country music. I love and respect the history of country music. This is my ode to all the big-haired women that came before me and it’s available everywhere NOW!” Dreyer spoke about the song.
