Songwriting and shining a light on other artists are two key elements of Dolly Parton‘s lasting legacy, from her wealth of self-written songs and collaborations to the artists who perform regularly at her Dollywood theme park and other ventures around Pigeon Forge, Tennessee.
Parton’s soon-to-open SongTeller Hotel in Nashville is continuing that mission through a new partnership with FEMco, an organization founded by music industry veteran exec Leslie Fram to help champion women in music. Parton’s Live, an intimate performance venue inside the SongTeller Hotel, will host the monthly music series “FEMcountry at Parton’s Live,” a showcase dedicated to elevating rising and established women artists. The series also supports Dolly Parton’s SongTeller Hotel’s commitment to celebrating songwriters.

The series will launch Sept. 22 with an in-depth conversation with Grammy-nominated singer/songwriter Jo Dee Messina and will be followed by performances from Kylie Frey, Ruby Amanfu and Shelly Fairchild. Messina is known for hits including “Bring on the Rain” and “Bye Bye,” while third-generation rodeo girl and singer/songwriter Kylie Frey is a co-writer on Reba McEntire’s recent release “One Night in Tulsa.” Amanfu has earned multiple Grammy nominations, and her music and voice have been heard on programs including The Chosen and Little Fires Everywhere. Fairchild is known for songs including “You Don’t Lie Here Anymore,” and just released her new album, Sacred Southern Daughter.
Messina said in a statement, “I was asked to do this prior to Dolly’s passing, and it was such an honor. Being part of it feels even more meaningful now. The SongTeller is a reflection of who Dolly was. Her life was a song. To have the opportunity to mentor singer/songwriters feels like a natural part of her larger legacy. In many ways, this event feels like a passing of the torch, carrying forward the spirit of what Dolly gave to so many and helping inspire the storytellers and songwriters who come next. I’m truly honored to be part of this event, and I hope that, with the torch Dolly lit, we can keep that mission burning brightly.”
“FEMcountry has been committed to creating opportunities that elevate women in music – not just through conversation, but through action,” Fram said in a statement. “Partnering with Dolly Parton’s SongTeller Hotel is incredibly meaningful because Dolly has long been the gold standard for using her platform to lift others up. FEMcountry at Parton’s Live is about creating a home where exceptional female artists can share their music, build community and connect with audiences who are eager to discover their next favorite artist.”
“FEMcountry at Parton’s Live” will be held the third Tuesday of each month and is open to the public. Upcoming “FEMcountry at Parton’s Live” shows are slated for Oct. 20, Nov. 17 and Dec. 15, with the artist lineups for those shows to be announced in the coming weeks.
