Janson gets help from Dolly, Slash
Tuesday, May 2, 2023 – Chris Janson will release the song "21 Forever," featuring two Rock & Roll Hall of Fame members, Dolly Parton and Slash.
The song, written by Janson, Tommy Cecil and Tom Douglas, speaks on that transitional time from youthful partying to realizing "you can't be 21 forever."
"I'm so thrilled to announce that two global icons have joined me on my latest song," Janson said. "This is my absolute biggest collaboration to date. Dolly and Slash. It doesn't get any bigger than that. I'm incredibly humbled and grateful for these two. I hope you all enjoy '21 Forever.'"
Janson will release a new album via BMLG/Harpeth 60 Records, early this summer. The lead track off the forthcoming album, "All I Need Is You," is currently impacting country radio.

Chris Janson, who has made it well known how he's skilled at fixing drinks, expectedly comes to party much of the time on "All In." For instance, he revs up the party bus to top speed during "Halfway to Crazy." However, this 16-song album contains far more than mere bar beverage discussion. Janson has plenty on his mind, and it's all included herein.
