Listen to ‘Rockstar Deluxe’ on any streaming service.” “Hey friends and supporters, “It’s my birthday, so I’m going to give you a present!” she said at the start of the picture she shared with the message.
Parton continued, “I’m releasing four never-released songs for my birthday, to go with the Rockstar album, and a few others that you may have heard before that were not on the album. I hope you enjoy them, and I hope you all have a happy birthday for me! LOL.” She concluded her message with a sweet note to her fans, writing, “Thanks for everything, Dolly.” The new deluxe version of her rock-inspired album Rockstar, featuring unique additional tracks, follows the album’s first release in November of last year.
