The Ozark Mountain Daredevils mark their 51styear by bringing their past, present and future together into “Jackie Blue 2,” a newly-recorded version of their iconic song. Available today on all major streaming platforms, “Jackie Blue 2” updates the 1975 hit with the vocals of Molly Healey, who has been performing the fiddle, cello and backing vocals with the Daredevils since 2012.

Originally released in 1975, “Jackie Blue” rose to #3 on Billboard magazine’s Hot 100 chart and reached #1 on the Cash Box and Record World magazine charts. A departure from the roots-infused sound of the Ozark Mountain Daredevils, the song has remained popular around the world ever since with its breezy melodies that belie a sad tale.
