The Zac Brown Band<\/strong> has joined forces with the legendary Dolly Parton<\/strong> on a brand new collaboration called \u201cButterfly.\u201d Out today, Friday (Sept. 5), this deeply-moving ballad brings together two iconic acts to deliver an emotionally-charged, inspirational message that is meant to touch the heart.<\/p>\n A piano-heavy ballad with an orchestra feel, \u201cButterfly\u201d sits at a little over four minutes as ZBB frontman Zac Brown sets the tone lyrically. He showcases his earnest vocals on the poetic verses that share a deep wisdom in hopes of uplifting individuals who either feel broken or may have been hurt in one way or another.<\/p>\n \u201cWhatever don’t kill you makes you strong \/\u00a0 Night is always darkest right before the dawn,\u201d Zac Brown sings before the two artists team up on the chorus, joining their voices in a beautiful harmony.<\/p>\n \u201cButterfly, you will see \/ You’re so much stronger than you think you are \/ You just have to believe,\u201d they sing throughout the soaring chorus of the song. \u201cYou can fly, mend your wings \/ Any moment you can free yourself \/ And fly out of the darkness, butterfly.\u201d<\/p>\n With its simple, yet powerful meaning of overcoming personal challenges and message of hope, \u201cButterfly\u201d will resonate with people far and wide.<\/p>\n Before releasing the track, the Zac Brown Band teased the collaboration on Instagram, sharing their admiration and excitement for having Parton\u2019s guest vocals on \u201cButterfly.\u201d The band also revealed they will drop the accompanying music video for the song on Friday (Sept. 5) at 10:00 a.m. CT. The music video will feature Parton as well.<\/p>\n \u201cHonored to bring this story to life with the one and only @dollyparton<\/a> \/ Official Music Video premiering on Youtube this Friday @ 10 am CST,\u201d a caption reads alongside a photo of Zac Brown playing on piano with his back facing the camera. Parton, meanwhile, is seated next to him with her legs crossed and arms folded, looking up as if she is reflecting on something meaningful.<\/p>\n \u201cButterfly\u201d is one of two new tracks released by the Zac Brown Band as a two-pack offering to listeners. \u201cGive It Away\u201d serves as the other single, which also dropped on Friday (Sept. 5).
