Dolly Parton and Dionne Warwick have recorded their first ever collaboration with a gospel duet titled ‘Peace Like A River,” which Dolly wrote and Damon Elliott, Dionne’s son/manager produced for AND CUT… Productions. They filmed a video on February 7 in Nashville to accompany the musical release on February 24.
“I was honored to get to sing with one of my idols, Dionne Warwick," Dolly shared. "I have loved her for years and getting to sing with her was one of the highlights of my career. I loved that she loved my song, and I loved singing it with her."
“I so admire Dolly Parton’s talent and work ethic,” Dionne said. “I am thrilled to have this opportunity for us to work together.”
“I knew from the moment that Dolly sent me (Peace Like A River) that mom not only must sing it, but Dolly must sing it with her! The magic is in the dynamic of the duo, and let me say with all the chaos in this world we all need peace and cleansing…” commented Damon Elliott, producer.
“It is such an honor to be able to work with these legends. Everything from the colors to the placements and detail of this work came into consideration to bring forth this peaceful clean visual,” says Bart Cooper, single cover artist.
Dolly's duet with Dionne Warwick, "Peace Like a River," will be released on February 24, 2023 on Dionne and Damon’s Kind Music Group label, along with the video, directed by Nick Pres and Damon Elliott.
