Cat Power fires up Jukebox

Give Cat Power's PR team a hand, folks! Over the past few weeks they've been teasing us with incremental details about this new covers record of hers. Not even a proper compilation of original material, mind you! We're talking about karaoke night with the Dirty Delta Blues, here.

Now that Chan Marshall has kept her band name alive through multiple news cycles, we can finally bring this ultimate news item for you. Her new covers record, entitled Jukebox, has cover art and a track list. At last!

Above, you can glimpse that wonderful tri-colored artwork (courtesy of Pitchfork), and below, the selection of cover tunes with the previous performing artist in parenthesis. As you might notice, Cat Power covers herself on this record ("Metal Heart"), and adds an all-new composition ("Song To Bobby") for the fans. The album drops Jan. 22 on Matador Records.
