Dolly Parton Spotlights her Family

Dolly Parton is planning to reveal creative insight and personal details about her family’s roots in a forthcoming album and companion docuseries titled, Dolly Parton & Family: Smoky Mountain DNA – Family, Faith & Fables. The album is set to be released on November 15, 2024, with the accompanying docuseries already in production and featuring selections from the album performed by Parton and her family members while being filmed at Knoxville’s Bijou Theater.

“I cannot believe that it has been 60 years this month since I graduated from Sevier County High School and moved to Nashville to pursue my dreams,” says Parton. “My Uncle Bill Owens was by my side for many years helping me develop my music. I owe so much to him and all the family members past and present who have inspired me along this journey. I am honored to spotlight our families’ musical legacy that is my Smoky Mountain DNA.” (
