The recent news comes a few months after the country legend accepted her induction at last year's Rock & Roll Hall of Fame where she debuted a new song called "Rockin'" and announced her new album.

Initially, the musician attempted to turn down the induction as she is a country artist, but she was later convinced to accept the award.

She later shared her plans about releasing a rock and roll album, saying, "So, I reached out to a lot of friends who were on the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame with me when we were there those few days rehearsing. So, now I'm doing an album... It's called Rock Star, and here I am at 77 going to be a rock star."

Aside from the artists mentioned above, Parton previously shared details about her upcoming project by naming some collaborators.

Speaking to The View, the country star named a few famous artists in the industry that would make appearances on her album like Stevie Nicks, Brandi Carlile, Steven Tyler, John Fogerty, Steve Perry, and Pink.

Her goddaughter, Miley Cyrus, whom she co-hosted with during a New Year's Eve event, will also be on the album with the song "Wrecking Ball" that is expected to be released around midsummer/early fall.
