A family announcement confirmed that Parton died on July 23, 2026. The cause of death was not disclosed. He had been living in Sevierville, Tennessee, near the East Tennessee community where the Parton family has deep roots.

Denver Parton largely stayed out of the public spotlight, choosing a life centered on work, family, and the outdoors. He worked as a crane operator and helped build bridges during his career. He was also known for farming, hunting, and spending time in the rural surroundings he called home.

He is survived by two daughters, a grandson, Dolly Parton, and several other siblings. His death marks another loss for the large Parton family, which has remained closely connected to its Appalachian background over the years.

The family plans to hold a private memorial service. No additional details about the ceremony have been released.

During a recent interview, the country-pop star confirmed that early planning has begun for a major event marking three decades since the album’s release. She compared the process to organizing a wedding and said she wants the celebration to feel suitably large.

Twain also responded positively to the idea of performing the complete album live. She described Come On Over as a major turning point in her career and said she would like to honor it in full.

Released in 1997, the album includes enduring hits such as Man! I Feel Like a Woman! and You’re Still the One. Its mix of country and pop helped Twain reach a broad international audience.

The singer is also promoting her seventh studio album, Little Miss Twain. The record revisits her early life, including her childhood performances and the years leading up to her first record deal.

During a recent conversation about beauty and personal style, the country singer explained that she has a special appreciation for people who recognize her when she looks completely different. When fans spot her without makeup or her usual hair routine, Moroney believes they have earned a photo because they clearly know who she is beyond the stage image.

She also shared that beauty routines can affect her mood in a positive way. A fresh hair color, extensions, or a spray tan can help her feel more confident and put together.

At the same time, Moroney has not ruled out changing her appearance later in her career. She suggested that a more natural look could become part of a future chapter. For now, her signature style remains closely tied to her public image, while her offstage appearance offers fans a more casual glimpse of the person behind the music.

Peck explained during the conversation that he had been struggling with addiction, alcohol use, and declining mental and physical health. He later entered rehabilitation and began working toward sobriety. The same period also included the end of a relationship, adding to what he described as one of the most difficult chapters of his life.

Those experiences now form the foundation of Peck’s fourth studio album, Mule. Scheduled for release on September 18, 2026, the record follows his journey through addiction, rehabilitation, sobriety, and rebuilding his life.

The 13-track album includes Too Little, Too Late and Rehab Blues. Peck is also preparing to support the project with the Man Turned Mule Tour, marking a return to the stage after a period focused on recovery and personal health.

The cancellations affect the August 20 show in Chicago, the August 29 concert in Boston and the September 2 date in Brooklyn. The Chicago performance had been scheduled to open the tour. No public explanation for the changes has been announced.

Fans who purchased tickets for the canceled dates are expected to receive refunds through their original point of purchase. Other scheduled concerts in the affected cities remain listed, allowing the tour to continue with a revised itinerary.

The Middle of Nowhere Tour supports Musgraves’ latest album and includes stops across North America. While the three cancellations alter the opening portion of the schedule, the remaining dates are still expected to move forward as planned.

Musgraves has not shared additional details about why the shows were removed. Fans should check their ticket provider for refund information and updated event details.

The latest rankings also confirm that Choosin’ Texas is the first song by a female artist to lead the Hot 100, Hot Country Songs and Country Airplay charts at the same time. It has also become the longest-running Hot 100 No. 1 by a female country artist.

The single was released in October 2025 as the lead track from Langley’s second studio album, Dandelion. She co-wrote it with Miranda Lambert, Luke Dick and JoyBeth Taylor.

Langley’s success now extends beyond one song. Dandelion opened at No. 1 on the albums chart, while other tracks have reached the upper levels of the Hot 100. The results mark a major crossover moment for a country artist whose audience has expanded well beyond the genre.

The visual opens with Musgraves performing in a karaoke bar, where she meets a mysterious cowboy. Their connection quickly develops into a passionate love story, with the video moving through sunlit streets, dramatic landscapes, and intimate late-night scenes.

Directed by Alexa Stone and Stephen Kinigopoulos, the video blends classic Western imagery with dreamlike details. A parrot, a boa constrictor, and other symbolic animals appear throughout the story, adding to its playful and slightly surreal mood.

Mexico Honey has already become a favorite among listeners, even though it was not initially introduced as an official single. The song appears on Musgraves’ latest album, Middle of Nowhere, and its growing popularity helped give the track a larger spotlight.

The release also arrives as Musgraves prepares for upcoming North American tour dates, giving fans another look at the visual world surrounding her newest music.

The couple ended their marriage after nearly a decade together. While their separation has drawn widespread attention, neither Jelly Roll nor Bunnie Xo has publicly confirmed the specific reason for the divorce. Both have continued to speak about each other with respect in recent public appearances and online posts.

Bailee’s remarks quickly spread across social media, where many fans had been speculating about what led to the breakup. Her comments challenged some of the most common theories while making it clear that the full story has not been shared publicly.

For now, the circumstances behind the divorce remain private. Until either Jelly Roll or Bunnie Xo chooses to discuss the situation in more detail, much of the conversation continues to be based on speculation rather than confirmed facts.

The event is scheduled to begin at Melbourne Showgrounds on January 22 before moving to Sydney Showground on January 23 and Brisbane RNA Showgrounds on January 24. The announcement positions LONGHAUL as a major addition to Australia’s growing country music festival calendar.

The lineup also features Charles Wesley Godwin, Margo Price, Maddox Batson, James Barker Band and Ava Hall. Australian performers will appear throughout the event, bringing local artists together with established international acts.

Musgraves and Brown represent different sides of modern country music. Musgraves is known for blending traditional country songwriting with pop and alternative influences, while Brown has built a broad audience through country, pop and R&B collaborations.

Afterpay presale tickets open July 24, followed by another presale on July 27. General ticket sales begin July 28.

During the concert, Wallen told the crowd that he had spent part of his break from touring back in the studio. He then introduced Been By Now, confirming that the song is planned for release on July 24, 2026.

The track was written by Wallen with Charlie Handsome, John Byron, Blake Pendergrass, Rocky Block, and Taylor Phillips. Its live debut offered the audience the first public preview of his latest studio work.

Wallen has not announced a full album or explained where the single may fit into his next project. For now, Been By Now stands as the clearest sign that more new music is taking shape.

The Baltimore performance also gave the song a large-scale introduction before its official release. Fans will hear the completed studio version when the single arrives later this month.
