Music history just witnessed a miracle.

For the first time ever, Jelly Roll has announced the release of a never-before-heard duet with his late son, Noah “Buddy” DeFord — a track so hauntingly beautiful and emotionally raw that it feels as though the two are singing across eternity.

Titled “You’re Still Here,” the song was recently discovered among old Nashville studio recordings long believed to be lost. The moment the music begins — Jelly Roll’s gravelly, soul-stirring voice blending with Buddy’s soft, angelic tone — the listener is transported into a space where love defies time, and sound becomes memory.

Their voices intertwine in breathtaking harmony, carrying the kind of warmth and honesty only family can create. Jelly Roll’s vocals, shaped by years of hardship, redemption, and unfiltered emotion, lead with the pain of experience — while Buddy’s tender, innocent response feels like light breaking through a storm. Together, they create a connection that transcends life itself.

Producers who uncovered the recording were left speechless.

“It didn’t sound like just a song,” one said. “It sounded like love captured in sound — a father and son frozen in time, singing to each other across forever.”

As the melody unfolds, every lyric feels like a message from Jelly Roll to his son — a promise that love endures even after goodbye. It’s not just a song; it’s a prayer, a keepsake, a heartbeat that refuses to fade.

For fans who have followed Jelly Roll’s journey from struggle to stardom, this release hits deeper than music. It’s a reminder that behind every lyric lies a life lived, every note carries a memory, and every song has a soul.

Though they now walk separate paths, through “You’re Still Here,” Jelly Roll and Buddy live again — together, forever, in harmony that never fades.
