Dolly Parton Releases New Single to Radio Exclusively Through AirPlay Direct

Dolly Parton is looking for a “change.”  As one of the most beloved artists in the world today and a reputation for being a savvy businesswoman, Dolly understands the need for promoting music online.
 
Dolly has decided to release her latest single, “Change It” – from the Broadway Musical, “9 to 5,” exclusively through AirPlay Direct with no traditional means of radio promotion.  This new version was re-recorded with Dolly’s taking lead on the song.  Dolly is one of the top artists on AirPlay Direct with thousands of downloads from radio stations all over the world!
 
“Change It” is an uplifting song urging that “if you don’t take the reins, it’s gonna stay the same” and “nothing’s gonna change if you don’t change it.”
 
“AirPlay Direct has been a great tool for us.  With their excellent tracking system, we can instantly see the demand for Dolly’s music at traditional and non-traditional [internet radio] formats all over the world.  If a radio station in Japan downloads her latest single, we know about it!” – Mike Hagler, New Media, Dolly Parton Management/Dolly Records
