Parton recently released the latest track off her upcoming album, Rockstar (available on November 17 via Butterfly Records) - "Wrecking Ball" (feat. Miley Cyrus). Stream the single here, and listen below.
Says Dolly: "When I heard 'Wrecking Ball' I almost wept in my car. When it started into the chorus it hit me like a wrecking ball! I thought how great can a song be and how great can Miley Cyrus be? I thought, I have to have that song on my rock album and I have to have Miley sing it with me! I love it and I hope you do!"
As one of the year’s most-anticipated album releases, Rockstar features Parton taking on some of the most adored songs in rock n' roll history. Fans can pre-order an array of Rockstar vinyl and CD box sets via Parton’s website.
