Cultural icon Dolly Parton stopped by the SiriusXM studios to talk to The Highway’s Storme Warren about her 30-song soundtrack for the new Netflix movie “Dumplin’.”
While some songs on the soundtrack are newly written, others are Parton classics that have been re-recorded specifically for the movie. The first single from the soundtrack, “Here I Am,” was originally released on her 1971 album “Coat Of Many Colors”; Parton re-recorded it as a duet with Australian singer-songwriter Sia.
Other female performers who got to sing with Parton for the soundtrack include Elle King, Alison Krauss, and Mavis Staples.
