DOLLY PARTON Shares Two Rockstar Album Tracks Feat. ROB HALFORD, NIKKI SIXX, JOHN 5, ANN WILSON; Audio

Global superstar and recent Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame inductee, Dolly Parton, today releases two new tracks from her forthcoming Rockstar album, arriving November 17.

The original song “Bygones" (feat. Rob Halford) with special guests Nikki Sixx and John 5 and a personalized cover of the Rock classic “Magic Man" (Carl Version) (feat. Ann Wilson) with special guest Howard Leese are available now. The second and third tracks follow the release of Parton’s self-penned lead single “World On Fire,” which became a #1 song on the Billboard Rock Digital Songs chart upon release last month.

“’Bygones’ is an original song of mine featuring Rob Halford from Judas Priest with Nikki Sixx and John 5. It is one of my very favourites on the whole album. The song fits with so many couples and coupling my voice with Rob, one of my all-time favourites, made it even more special.” – Dolly Parton

“I’ve always wanted a reason to sing ‘Magic Man’ by Heart and it was one of my first choices for the album. I was so happy that Ann Wilson agreed to sing it with me. Nobody can out sing Ann, but I gave it my darndest, and we added a few lines that were not in the original. We wanted to have a few things that made it seem like ours. Thank you, Nancy, for letting me fill in for you on this. Hope I’ve made you both proud. I think it’s magic!” – Dolly Parton

Rockstar is set for global release on November 17 via Butterfly Records with distribution by Big Machine Label Group and will be available as a 4 LP set (see below for an overview of available versions), a 2 CD set, digital download and on all streaming services.

“I’m so excited to finally present my first rock and roll album, Rockstar! I am very honored and privileged to have worked with some of the greatest iconic singers and musicians of all time and to be able to sing all the iconic songs throughout the album was a joy beyond measure. I hope everybody enjoys the album as much as I’ve enjoyed putting it together!” - Dolly Parton
