DESCRIPTION
Smoky Mountain DNA: Family, Faith and Fables shines a spotlight on the enduring legacy of two families — Dolly Parton's paternal Parton family and her mother's family, the Owens. The project traces their origins from the United Kingdom in the 1600s to their home today in the Great Smoky Mountains of East Tennessee. Through this release, audiences will discover the treasured heritage that has been preserved and echoed in the music and vibrant culture of Appalachia.
Produced by Richie Owens, Dolly's cousin, the album features songs performed by various members of Dolly's immediate and extended family, spanning generations. Some tracks include the voices of beloved family members who have passed, alongside contemporary contributions from today's generation. These recordings not only celebrate the musical legacy but also the deep familial bonds and cultural traditions that have shaped their lives.
Smoky Mountain DNA is not just a musical experience but a passage through the lineage and ethos of a family that has deeply influenced one of the world's most beloved artists.
