HOUSTON — CALLING ALL HOUSTON-AREA BEYHIVE MEMBERS! 

Discovery Green is hosting a listening party for you to vibe out to Beyonce's new album being released on Friday, but this will be no average listening party. 

The party will be held at Discovery Green's outdoor roller skating rink. A DJ will play the "Cowboy Carter" album in its entirety as well as some of her other hits throughout the years. 

General admission to the "The Rink" is $12 plus tax. Your admission includes the skate rental. 

Military and first responders can roll for $10. 

"The Rink" is open every day until March 31. Click here for opening hour.

What to expect from Beyonce's 'Cowboy Carter' album

"Cowboy Carter" will have more than 20 songs with features from Willie Nelson and Dolly Parton, according to a post she shared on her Instagram just days before her album was scheduled to be released. 

Earlier this month, in an interview with Knox News celebrating the seasonal opening of her amusement park Dollywood, Parton said she thinks Beyoncé has recorded a cover of her 1973 hit.

“Well, I think she has,” she said. “I think she’s recorded ‘Jolene’ and I think it’s probably gonna be on her country album, which I’m very excited about that.”

On his social media, Caldwell thanked God for bringing him through any challenges and being there every step of the way. 

"Mannnn I just woke up and I’m pretty numb, I can’t believe my eyes or I’m even typing this, I’ve waited my whole career for this moment and it’s finally here!! wowwww thank you @beyonce & @parkwood , @lens_face for making this possible, this means more than anything. Never stop dreaming no matter how long it takes or what you face in life," Caldwell said in part on Facebook and Instagram.
