Dolly Parton Reveals ‘Rockstar’ Release Date and Track Listing

Dolly Parton has announced that her upcoming rock album, Rockstar, will arrive on Nov. 17.

The country legend also unveiled the LP’s track listing, which can be seen below. The album’s full list of guest contributors has also been confirmed, including several artists who’ve been previously announced. Sting, Steve Perry, Ann Wilson, Kevin Cronin, Michael McDonald, Debbie Harry and Elton John are among the collaborators on Parton’s first rock album.

Both surviving Beatles, Ringo Starr and Paul McCartney appear on Parton’s cover of “Let It Be,” along with Mick Fleetwood and Peter Frampton. Late Lynyrd Skynyrd guitarist Gary Rossington, who died in March, appears on her version of “Free Bird,” which also features posthumous vocals from Ronnie Van Zant.

Rockstar is Parton’s response to her 2022 induction into the Rock & Roll of Fame. “This may have been just a God-wink for me to go ahead and do that,” she told Billboard at the time.

The album is now available for preorder.
