K.T. Oslin, known for country hits like "Do Ya'" and "80's Ladies," has died. She was 78. Her cause of death has not yet been released.
Oslin's friend Robert K. Oermann reported her death on Music Row. Oermann said she died in suburban Nashville, Tenn., on Monday morning.
She is survived by her aunt, Reba, who told Oerman about her niece's death. The singer was suffering from Parkinson's disease and had been residing in an assisted-living facility since 2016, according to Oermann.
Oermann said that last week, Oslin, who had triple bypass surgery in 1995, tested positive for coronavirus. Oslin launched her country music career in her mid-40s and was known for her strong female voice in her songwriting.
