Dolly Parton BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.

Dolly Parton can’t seem to slow down even for a moment. The biggest story making headlines is her powerful new duet, Butterfly, with Zac Brown and the Zac Brown Band, released September 5. Critics from MusicTalkers and Parade alike call the ballad a spiritual, cinematic anthem of resilience and hope. The release arrived not only with a beautifully produced track but also a deeply moving music video featuring both artists. According to Zac Brown, the collaboration was a dream come true, and he describes Dolly’s vocals as transformative, saying she brought a whole new perspective and “so much heart and soul” to the song. Fans are already flooding social media with praise for the pairing and have made the video a must-watch on YouTube and Instagram in the first forty-eight hours.

Butterfly is included in the Zac Brown Band’s upcoming album, Love & Fear, due out December 5—the very day they launch their sold-out Las Vegas Sphere residency. Industry watchers are buzzing about a possible live duet during December’s Sphere run, although no official announcement has been made. While this is not yet confirmed, the excitement is only amplified by Zac and Dolly’s visible camaraderie on social media, with Zac’s fiancée Kendra Scott even joining the chorus of enthusiastic fans.

If that weren’t enough, tomorrow night Dolly’s legacy gets honored as the Cleveland Orchestra brings Threads: My Songs in Symphony to the Blossom Music Center. The production, developed by Parton herself with Schirmer Theatrical and Sony Music Publishing, recasts Dolly’s signature hits in a grand multimedia symphonic format. Parton will not appear on stage, but she’s ‘featured on screen’ throughout the evening in what she herself has called one of the most special projects of her career. This innovative celebration threads her life story and musical journey together for audiences nationwide—another sign her iconic catalog is only growing in stature.

On the business front, Dolly continues to bat away internet scams using her likeness, specifically those false rumors about her endorsing CBD gummies that have popped up in unsanctioned Facebook ads. In a typically witty Instagram statement this week, Team Dolly clarified she has not endorsed any such product, declaring she’s truly “the cake, cookie, and cornbread type.” Instead, she recently expanded her official food line with new Duncan Hines offerings, delighting fans with fresh cornbread and brownie mixes.

And just to remind everyone she’s always relatable, Dolly told Business Insider in a new interview that her go-to order at Taco Bell remains the classic soft taco—with extra hot sauce, of course.

From music milestones to myth-busting on social media, September finds Dolly Parton as both an always-evolving icon and the down-to-earth queen her fans adore.
