The Academy of Country Music recognized her with a 2016Cliffie Stone Pioneer Award for her lifetime achievements in country music.

These honors are fitting tributes to Gayle who has been a favorite of audiences ofcountry and popular music since attaining national prominence with her first chart records in the mid-70s. Renowned for her classic recording of her signature song "Don’t It Make My Brown Eyes Blue," Gayle also scored with hermulti-format hits "You’ve Been Talking In Your Sleep,""When I Dream," "Half the Way" and her duet with Eddie Rabbitt, "Just You and I." Gayle has released over 20 number one hits and has been awarded numerous times by the Grammy’s, the Country MusicAssociation, the Academy of Country Music, the American Music Awardsand theAmerican Music Operators Association.
Gaylel also found great personal satisfaction in recording two inspirational albums. HerGrammy nominated “Someday” was comprised of mostly original spiritual songs and“He Is Beautiful” contains mostly traditional hymns. These efforts led to her 2009induction into the Christian Music Hall of Fame.
She has contributed songs to three Grammy winning children’s albums: “Sesame Country” (in which she dueted with Big Bird), “Here comes the Rainbow,”and “Songsfrom the Neighborhood — The Music of Mr. Rogers.”Gayle adds her first solo children’salbum, “In My Arms,”a collection of lullabies that perfectly suits her warm vocals. “Iloved all of these songs immediately and the tender and imaginative production makes 'In My Arms' an album that appeals to children of all ages.”

She alsomakes time for community involvement. She was the first recipient of the Waterford Crystal “Celebration of Light” award in recognition of her many charitable activities.
