Dolly Parton Music To Be Featured On Monday Night Football
ESPN’s Monday Night Football will feature music from Dolly Parton’s new album Rockstar during select weeks this season.
The multi-week collaboration began on September 25th with Parton’s single “Night Moves,” featuring Chris Stapleton, and will continue on October 16th with “Heartbreaker,” featuring Pat Benatar & Neil Giraldo.
Following the album’s Nov. 17th release, Rockstar’s “Magic Man,” featuring Ann Wilson with special guest Howard Leese, and the album’s title track “Rockstar,” with special guest Richie Sambora, will be heard in select Monday Night Football games the remainder of the year.
Parton said in a release,
“I am excited for ESPN to spotlight songs from my new Rockstar album. When I decided to do a full-blown rock album after they put me in the Rock ‘N Roll Hall of Fame, I thought it would be fun to call the album Rockstar. The athletes who give their all everyday are most definitely rock stars, and I love that these songs will be a small part of celebrating their achievements.”
