Dolly Parton and ESPN? Monday Night Football gets some 'Night Moves' with her new music

Dolly Parton has a new item to add to her list of musical accomplishments: being part of ESPN's Monday Night Football soundtrack.

ESPN announced Sept. 25 that songs from the beloved country, and now rock, singer's upcoming album "Rockstar" will be added to select weeks of Monday Night Football's franchise soundtrack. The multi-week collaboration begins this week for the show's Week 3 coverage with Dolly Parton’s single “Night Moves,” featuring Chris Stapleton. Parton's new music also can be heard during Week 6 with “Heartbreaker,” featuring Pat Benatar and Neil Giraldo.

Parton's first rock and roll album was inspired by her induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame last year.

Parton admitted to being hesitant about the album, but the songs that have been released have been met with praise.

“I thought, well, I'm just going to go for it. If it turns out great, great. And if it don't, I'll say ‘Erase that right now!’" Parton said in a September interview with Knox News about her 49th studio album. “But I squalled at it. I mean, I hit it. I got in there.”

When will Dolly Parton's music be on ESPN's Monday Night football?

Parton's music can be heard starting this week and again on Oct. 16 in Week 6 of Monday Night Football.

According to ESPN Press Room, songs will take viewers in and out of commercials during Monday Night Football, with “Night Moves” also featured more prominently on Monday Night Countdown as part of the song’s world premiere.

The songs will be on additional ESPN programming after they are used on ESPN's NFL property.

When will Dolly Parton's "Rockstar" album be available?

Parton's first rock album will be available on Nov. 17.
