The Rock is ready to explore a music career. He just released a ballad called “Your Dad” dedicated to his three daughters.
He co-wrote it with 2023 “American Idol” winner Iam Tongi for a “Moana” companion album called “Moana: Voices Across the Ocean”. The Rock says music has always been a part of his life.
Quote, “I always like to say I sing from the heart and I sing in keys that don’t exist. So it’s a good combo.”
He wants to make “old-school soul” music with country flavor. Quote, “At a very early age, my deep influences were Sam Cooke, Elvis, George Jones, Merle Haggard, even Johnny Paycheck . . .
“Also Willie Nelson, who, as a matter of fact, gave me my first guitar. You know the Trigger guitar he has? The historic one? I guess Martin only made 100 of those, and as a birthday gift, ‘cause I was such a huge fan, he gave me one.”
