DJ Terry Hunter dropped a sweet announcement at Saturday’s Chosen Few Picnic & Festival. He’s got another Beyoncé house remix on the way. This time, he’s adding his groove to “Jolene” from Beyoncé’s 2024 album, Cowboy Carter.
“Chicago we did it again. Beyoncé, ‘Jolene,’ coming soon y,all,” Hunter said to the crowd before playing the record. He alluded to the success of his first Queen Bey remix, “Break My Soul,” which brought him a 2023 Grammy nomination. Hunter, a staple in the house community, also has worked with other big names such as Michael Jackson, Mary J. Blige, and Twista.
Originally written and performed by country legend Dolly Parton in 1974, Beyoncé’s 2024 adaptation of “Jolene” features Parton giving the queen and her listeners her blessing before the record begins.
The 34th annual Chosen Few House Music Picnic and Festival on July 13 was part of the larger celebration of the 40th anniversary of house music. The picnic, which began behind the Museum of Science and Industry in the 1990s, is now the largest and longest-standing house music festival in the world. The picnic has become ritualistic for Summertime Chi, and a required event for house heads of all ages.
