Parton lends her legendary talents to Williams’ newest single “Lookin’ For You,” along with a brand new music video to accompany the track. The two previously joined forces in 2020 on the RIAA Platinum Certified and #1 single, “There Was Jesus”.
When asked how this new collaboration came to be
“We were filming Dolly’s Christmas special in 2022, and Dolly asked me what I had been working on.
I was about to release the ‘A Hundred Highways’ album, and I told her that I had this one song that is probably my favorite on the album called “Lookin’ For You.”
I played it through my phone on set for her.”

“And I about fell over when I heard it, I thought it was the best thing,”
“I told him, ‘Well, there’s another big hit for you! But, did you forget to ask ME to sing on it with you?’” she joked.

However, a few months later she ended up singing on the track, and their second collaboration was locked in.
Recently, American Idol shared the story of contestant McKenna Breinholt, who was adopted as a child, and her journey to meet her birth family.
For her Idol audition, she sang the first Williams/Parton collaboration “There Was Jesus” and was united with her birth family on the show after her audition.
“What an awesome thing to see you use our song on American Idol.
We’re praying blessings over you and your family,”
ZACH WILLIAMS
“We felt like it was a blessing for you to sing it, and I’m sure you felt like it was a blessing to have all your people there.
Thanks for thinking of us and for loving the song!“
