The Youngest + Oldest Singers in Country Music

Country music is a genre that appeals to all ages, as our list of the youngest and oldest singers in country music amply demonstrates.

The range of ages on this list spans literally eight decades, and some of the artists at the outer edge of that range are still going strong well into their seventies or eighties.

The youngest singer on this list scored their first country hit at the tender young age of 11, and the oldest is still releasing new music and touring at the ripe old age of 91!

More than one country singer narrowly missed appearing on both the youngest and the oldest list. Marie Osmond released her first hit country song at 14, and she's now 65, missing the oldest list by five years.

Tanya Tucker landed her first country hit when she was 13, and she's still going strong at 66, missing the cutoff for the oldest country singers list by just four years.
