Listen to Dolly Parton’s First Posthumous Song, ‘Bound to Ride’
The 1964 track features Parton and the First Ladies of Bluegrass, and it arrives ahead of an Oct. 16 tribute album release.
Country music icon Dolly Parton's first posthumous song 'Bound to Ride' released this week as a collaboration with First Ladies of Bluegrass on a 1964 track, with Parton recording her vocals in 2022 during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Before her death from cancer at age 80, Parton had strategically planned multiple projects with her handpicked team, according to longtime manager Danny Nozell, ensuring her creative work would continue for decades.
Recording alone in her personal studio for health precautions, Parton worked with instrumental backing from First Ladies of Bluegrass, exemplifying her dedication to creating music until the day she died.
An all-star tribute album titled 'Where the Soul Never Dies: Celebrating 80 Years of The Stanley Brothers' releases October 16 through Compass Records, featuring Parton alongside Willie Nelson, Sierra Ferrell, Dierks Bentley and others.
Parton's representatives stated 'Our beloved Dolly spent her life and career bringing joy, laughter, hope and integrity into everything she touched,' with her generosity reaching countless lives through the framework she established.
