NEW YORK (October 25, 2023) – She’s a global superstar, a movie star, a country star, a pop star, and now Dolly Parton is an undisputed ROCKSTAR as she invites fans to join her in movie theaters worldwide for Dolly Parton ROCKSTAR: The Global First Listen Event, a unique cinema experience presented by Trafalgar Releasing on Wednesday, November 15 (with select encores on Thursday, November 16).
The worldwide fan event offers a first listen to selections from Dolly’s upcoming ROCKSTAR album, along with an exclusive interview with Dolly. The event will bring Dolly fans together for a musical preview of one of the year’s most anticipated albums. Tickets to Dolly Parton ROCKSTAR: The Global First Listen Event are available beginning today at DollyRockstarEvent.com. The album ROCKSTAR will be available November 17.
This one-of-a-kind fan event will also feature a never-before-seen performance of a holiday song “Circle Of Love,” plus a rare performance of her classic hit “9 to 5,” making it a can’t-miss experience for Dolly’s legions of fans.
“I am excited to know that my fans around the world will be able to come together and be the first to hear a sneak peek of my Rockstar album,” says Dolly Parton. “I am so proud of this music, and I am humbled by all the wonderful artists who joined me. I cannot wait for people to hear it!”
In keeping with Dolly’s long-standing commitment to giving back, a portion of the proceeds from ticket sales will benefit Music Will and their global partner organizations. Music Will is the largest nonprofit music program in the US public school system. Further, Music Will works with sister organizations around the world to magnify the power of music education.
“Dolly Parton is such an icon in the music world and to be among the first to hear her new rock music collaborations is something we are so excited to bring to fans. From works with legendary artists including Sir Paul McCartney, Sir Elton John, Steven Tyler and other friends, this will be a magical evening with Dolly; our beloved grammy winning musical icon,” said Kymberli Frueh, SVP of Content and Programming Acquisitions at Trafalgar Releasing. “The big screen is a wonderful way to bring people together to experience the power of music.”
For the upcoming ROCKSTAR album, Dolly Parton has joined forces with some of rock music’s most legendary artists along with today’s biggest stars for her first-ever rock album. Inspired by her 2022 induction into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, Dolly teamed up with an all-star roster of musicians for the 30-song collection, which includes nine original tracks and 21 iconic rock anthems. The ROCKSTAR album is set for global release on November 17 via Butterfly Records with distribution by Big Machine Label Group and will be available as a four-LP set, a two-CD set, digital download, and on all streaming services.
