Gabby Barrett released a new Amazon Original cover of Dolly Parton‘s “I Will Always Love You” yesterday (Wednesday, Sept. 2nd). The song was recorded at her home in Nashville accompanied by her husband, Cade Foehner, on guitar. Gabby also got to meet and chat with Dolly via a video call, which was released at Amazon Music.
Dolly said, “I know that Gabby will have a long and prosperous career ahead of her. She has what it takes to make it in our industry . . . talent, she’s hard working, humble and kind.”
Gabby said, “The thing about this song and about all of Dolly's catalog is that her music is timeless; it comes straight from her heart. You can tell that she's being honest and sincere in every lyric she writes. Every story is genuine to her life. Something I strive for, that she has set such a perfect example of in Country music. I am honored to have covered this song, and I hope you all love it as much as I do.”
Amazon Music launched Gabby's Breakthrough campaign as she began prepping her debut album, Goldmine, in early Spring of 2020. The album was released in June.
