Dolly Parton is hands down one of the most important women in country music history. When Jennifer Aniston brought Julie Murphy’s young adult masterpiece, Dumplin’, to Netflix, she reportedly insisted that some details, like main character Willowdean Dickson’s obsession with the country music superstar, stay true to the book. The soundtrack for Netflix’s now-hit film is packed with girl power, with only female vocalists lending their talents. Aside from Dolly, other artists featured on the soundtrack include Sia and Miranda Lambert.
Whether you’re a country music aficionado or a casual dabbler, you’ll find yourself familiar with one of the soundtrack’s featured songs. Dolly Parton’s Jolene has a legendary history of appealing to even the worst country music skeptic. The song is a smash as it is, but Dolly put a whole new spin on it for the Dumplin’ soundtrack. Along with 5 other songs, she recorded a new version for the film. Stripped down with a string section added to the mix, it’s no wonder both Jolene and Dumplin’ have the whole world talking.
