The superstar told Pollstar: “I don’t think I’ll ever tour again, but I know I’ll do special shows here and there, here and there. Maybe do a big weekend of shows or just a few shows at a festival. But I have no intention of going on a full tour anymore.’
Dolly thought she had spent “her whole life” traveling to perform, but now wants to “stay a little closer to home” with Carl Dean, her husband, whom she married in 1966.
He said: “I’ve done it my whole life and it takes so much time and energy. I like staying a little closer to home with my husband [Carl Dean].

“We’re getting older now and I don’t want to be away four or five weeks at a time. Something could happen.
“I wouldn’t feel good about it if I left and someone needed me. Or I’d feel bad if I had to leave a tour, if someone got sick at home and needed me, and then I had to leave for the fans.”
The Grammy winner – who also has a side career as a children’s literacy advocate with her charity, Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library – wants to work with ’70s rock gods Jimmy Page and Robert Plant on the album of bluegrass inspired by Led Zeppelin.
Dolly said, “But I’ll do it again with the money. I did it bluegrass style when I did it. but when I do the rock album, I will re-record it – and make it more faithful to the regular record. I’m trying to see if Robert Plant could sing on it. Maybe Jimmy Page will do the receiving part.”
