Hear Zac Brown Band and Dolly Parton’s New Duet “Butterfly”
Dolly Parton and the Zac Brown Band have joined forces to deliver an uplifting new duet. Their single, “Butterfly,” officially debuted on Friday, September 5, 2025, and country fans are already buzzing with excitement.
An Inspirational Message Through Music
The track “Butterfly” blends heartfelt harmonies with powerful lyrics that encourage listeners to rise above struggles. Both Zac Brown and Dolly Parton deliver passionate performances, especially during the soaring chorus.
Importantly, the song inspires hope by reminding fans to believe in themselves, mend their wings, and fly out of the darkness. Because of this message, many listeners are calling the duet one of the most moving country collaborations in years.
Official Music Video Release
Fans don’t have to wait long for visuals to match the song’s powerful message. The official music video for “Butterfly” premieres on September 5 at 10 a.m. Central Time. Until then, listeners can stream the audio version on major platforms.
Part of the Upcoming Album Love & Fear

Las Vegas Residency at The Sphere
Alongside the album release, Zac Brown Band has announced a special residency at The Sphere in Las Vegas starting on December 5, 2025.
Initially, the group scheduled four shows on December 5, 6, 12, and 13. However, due to overwhelming demand, they added two more performances on January 9 and 10, 2026.
Because tickets sold out so quickly, fans expect the additional shows to do the same. The residency will not only showcase the band’s biggest hits but also offer an intimate look at Zac Brown’s musical journey through storytelling and performance.
Why “Butterfly” Stands Out
“Butterfly” carries more than just a beautiful melody. It reflects resilience, personal growth, and the strength to overcome life’s challenges. Moreover, pairing Dolly Parton’s timeless voice with Zac Brown Band’s modern sound creates a cross-generational anthem that resonates with longtime fans and new listeners alike.
With a powerful message, a highly anticipated album, and an innovative Las Vegas residency, Zac Brown Band and Dolly Parton are proving that country music continues to inspire and evolve in 2025.
