That album, for the most part, is going to be done with the help of Dolly Parton who is writing a number of songs for The Possum.

Jones told Billboard “I love Dolly, always have and I am so honored to be doing a project with her. She is writing most of the songs and we all know what a great songwriter she is. I am just waiting for her to tell me what to sing and when to sing it!”

No word on a timeframe for getting the album out.

He also talked about his final dates. “It is a little bittersweet. I have been blessed to do what I love for all these years and when I return to places that I know I will be performing for the last time it makes me a little nostalgic and sad. I will surely miss my fans and the good people I have met along this journey.”
