Country Trio Stuns The Crowd With Epic Response To Dolly Parton's 'Jolene'

What a legendary moment for Chapel Hart! This country trio stuns the crowd with an epic present-day response to Dolly Parton’s ‘Jolene.’ 

From the moment they stepped on the stage, we knew they were something special. The trio is made of family, two sisters Danica and Devlyn Hart and first cousin, Trea Swindle. 

Rooted in Mississippi, the group grew up on Dolly Parton. With a nod to their beloved icon, the trio wrote an original of their own titled, ‘You Can Have Him, Jolene’ which is a follow up to Dolly’s original, ‘Jolene.’ 

Danica explained why they wrote the cheeky song, "We were so inspired by the song ‘Jolene;' we just love the storyline. And we figured, though, from 1973 to 2022, we could not still be fighting over the same man, so we decided to tell her, 'You can just have him, Jolene.'”

The high-energy country song had the crowd cheering and the judges dancing. By the time they finished their performance, the audience was chanting for the Golden Buzzer. But this is where it gets interesting.

The Judges had already hit the Golden Buzzer this season, it’s against the rules to use it again. For a moment, as the judges deliberated about what to do, the crowd was stunned to silence while Chapel Hart hoped for the best outcome on the stage. 

Suddenly, all the judges brought their hands down together to hit the Golden Buzzer! They knew Chapel Hart was too incredible of a group with their talent, energy, and love of music to pass up. 

“Trust me, I needed you today. I mean, that was fantastic," Simon said. "I love you, and I love the choreography going on around you. It was just brilliant…You’ve just got to break down that door, and you may have just broken down that door with that performance, trust me,” Simon Cowell said. 

The trio shared that it had been hard for them to break into Nashville because they don’t ‘look’ like country music.

Heidi Klum added, “"I love the song, I love the energy, I love the look. You say country music doesn’t look like you; that is your win, because you are going to be the original.”

If you love Dolly Parton as much as we do, you will enjoy this incredible trio and their performance!

As adults, how do we move past all the voices that have been telling us throughout our lives that we need to “grow up” and “stop behaving like a child”?
