Dolly Parton's First Posthumous Song Released

The track was recorded in 2022 and features First Ladies of Bluegrass, with the tribute album due for release on Oct. 16.

  • On Wednesday, Dolly Parton's first posthumous song, "Bound To Ride," debuted, featuring the First Ladies of Bluegrass on an upcoming tribute album honoring The Stanley Brothers.
  • Parton recorded her vocals for the cover four years ago during the COVID-19 pandemic, choosing her private studio to avoid travel risks during the health crisis.
  • Producer Garry West praised the contribution, saying, "I call it the full Dolly. We didn't know what we would get back, and she really did over-deliver." The song appears on "Where The Soul Never Dies."
  • Parton died on August 25 following a "brief battle with cancer" at age 80. Tributes from artists like Miley Cyrus and Sir Elton John have continued in the weeks since.
  • Over a career spanning more than 60 years, the pioneering philanthropist sold more than 100 million records and wrote more than 3,000 songs. Her legacy includes Dollywood and Her Imagination Library, which has given more than 300 million books to children worldwide.
