Dave Grohl, vocalist and guitarist of the Foo Fighters and former drummer of Nirvana, cited the album in a 2000 issue of NME, saying, \"'Satisfaction' is the hit off that record, or so everybody thinks. But for me, it's that Velvet Underground song, \"I Found a Reason\". It's beautiful, beautiful, beautiful. My favourite.\"[15] Grohl would work with Marshall on Cat Power's subsequent release, You Are Free (2003).
Covers is Marshall's third collection of cover songs, following 2000's The Covers Record and 2008's Jukebox.[2] The album was recorded alongside Marshall's live band: guitarist Adeline Jasso, bassist and keyboardist Erik Paparozzi, and drummer Alianna Kalaba. Marshall was not planning on recording a covers album, and was originally intent on recording original compositions. She explained: \"I got in the studio and I wanted the band to relax, so I started composing improvisationally, just getting them to play certain things that sounded good together. For the first four songs we recorded that day, I had no idea what the vocals would be or what the song would be. They were four songs that I had no intention of covering. I just wanted the band to warm up, and when I got them to play something that I liked the sound of, I went to the vocal booth and I said, 'Just don't stop.' Then I was like, 'What cover should I sing over this music that is playing'.[3]
From the cover of Tom Waits' \"Yesterday Is Here\" on Dear Sir to the version of Rihanna's \"Stay\" on Wanderer, reinterpreting the work of artists she loves has always been a key part of Chan Marshall's music. Roughly once a decade, she serves up an album's worth of thoughtfully chosen and performed covers; the first, 2000's Covers Album, came out of a period when she needed to find respite from writing her own songs. Since then, she's used these collections as reflections of where she is as an artist and a person. Coming after 2018's wounded yet liberated Wanderer, Covers shares a similar state of mind. Some of the best moments find her reflecting on friends, lovers, and identities lost to time, as on her hushed version of \"I'll Be Seeing You,\" a tribute to Philippe Zdar, the late producer who worked with her on Sun. Two other highlights, \"Against the Wind\" and \"A Pair of Brown Eyes\" -- which trades the Pogues' squeezebox and pipes for a woozy Mellotron -- focus on the passing of time and changing perspectives on life, and Marshall strips both of their swagger to bring their poignancy to the fore. She also manages to make her version of \"Here Comes a Regular\" sound even more desolate than the Replacements' original, and transforms the exquisitely aloof sorrow of Nico's \"These Days\" into an up-close confessional. As on The Covers Record and Jukebox, Marshall unifies the sound of all the songs she pays tribute to into something unmistakably hers. Backed by her Wanderer band, she brings a somber sultriness to Frank Ocean's \"Bad Religion,\" recognizes another expert balladeer with her sweltering version of Lana Del Rey's \"White Mustang,\" and zooms in on the battle between despair and hope within \"Pa Pa Power,\" a song by Ryan Gosling's underappreciated indie band Dead Man's Bones. And like so many other times during her career, she does a lot with a little on \"It Wasn't God Who Made Honky Tonk Angels,\" using barely more than an upright bass and pedal steel (and, of course, her warm, knowing vocals) to connect with Kitty Wells' original and make it her own. Covers is a treat for fans, and reaffirms that Marshall can find the Cat Power -- as well as new meanings -- in the music that moves her.
A cover of a Phil Phillips record from 1959, Cat Power recorded her version in 2000 for her album The Covers Record. It was prominently featured in the 2007 film Juno and included in its best-selling soundtrack.
The compilation will be her third covers album to date following on from the equally innovatively titled The Covers Record from 2000 and eight years later she returned to reinterpretations with Jukebox.
Very few artists specialise in the cover version as emphatically as Chan Marshall, otherwise known as Cat Power, the soulful singer songwriter whose first covers record, released in 2000, was about as perfect as a covers collection can be. That record included interpretations of tracks by artists including The Rolling Stones, The Velvet Underground, Moby Grape and Bob Dylan, among others. It was an almost uniquely rich dive into the meaning these songs carry, and a quite stunning set of sparse musical arrangements that linger long in the memory.
Born in Atlanta, Marshall was raised throughout the southern United States, and began performing in local bands in Atlanta in the early 1990s. After opening for Liz Phair in 1993, she worked with Steve Shelley of Sonic Youth and Tim Foljahn of Two Dollar Guitar, with whom she recorded her first two albums, Dear Sir (1995) and Myra Lee (1996), on the same day in 1994. In 1996, she signed with Matador Records, and released a third album of new material with Shelley and Foljahn, What Would the Community Think. Following this, she released the critically acclaimed Moon Pix (1998), recorded with members of Dirty Three, and The Covers Record (2000), a collection of sparsely arranged cover songs.
Covers is the third covers album from Cat Power, following 2008's Jukebox and The Covers Record from 2000, and will include Marshall's versions of songs by Nick Cave, Iggy Pop, Jackson Browne, Billie Holiday and more.
With Covers, Power (the stage name of Charlyn Marie \\\\u201CChan\\\\u201D Marshall) completes her trilogy of covers albums, following Jukebox (2008) and The Covers Record (2000). Her 11th album, it coincides with her 50th birthday and treads back in time to songs that struck a chord in her youth, and others released in the past decade that remind her of loved ones lost.
Nobody covers a song like Chan Marshall. And she knows it. Covers will be the third Cat Power collection of cover songs after The Covers Record (2000) and Jukebox (2008). Having two albums in your discography named The Covers Record and Covers may suggest a lack of creativity or imagination, but the originality of the performances and the eclecticism of the song selections more than make up for it.
Set for release in January, the new record completes a trilogy of sorts, following 2000's The Covers Record and 2008's Jukebox. Produced entirely by the artist, real name Chan Marshall, Covers features renditions of tracks by the likes of Nick Cave, Iggy Pop, Lana Del Rey, Billie Holiday, Jackson Browne, The Replacements, Bob Seger and the Pogues. You can listen to her take on Frank Ocean's 'Bad Religion', which features on the album, above.
In 1996 she signed with Matador Records, and released a third album of new material with Shelley and Foljahn, What Would the Community Think. Following this she released the critically acclaimed Moon Pix (1998), recorded with members of the Dirty Three, and The Covers Record (2000), a collection of sparsely recorded cover songs. After a brief hiatus she reemerged in 2003 with You Are Free, featuring guest musicians Dave Grohl and Eddie Vedder, followed by the soul-influenced The Greatest (2006), recorded with numerous Memphis studio musicians, and a second covers album, Jukebox (2008).

Cat Power has long had a special way of making other people's songs her own, and she's released two albums worth of covers already, 2000's The Covers Record and 2008's Jukebox. Now she has a third on the way, titled, simply, Covers, and due out January 14 via Domino. Pre-order now on gold vinyl.
Charlyn Marie Marshall (born January 21, 1972), also known as Chan Marshall or by her stage name Cat Power, is an American singer-songwriter, musician and occasional actress and model. Cat Power was originally the name of Marshall's first band, but has come to refer to her musical projects with various backing bands. Marshall was discovered opening for Liz Phair in 1994 by Steve Shelley of Sonic Youth and Tim Foljahn of Two Dollar Guitar, with whom she recorded her first two albums, Dear Sir (1995) and Myra Lee (1996), on the same day in 1994. In 1996 she signed with Matador Records, and released a third album of new material with Shelley and Foljahn, What Would the Community Think. Following this she released the critically acclaimed Moon Pix (1998), recorded with members of the Dirty Three, and The Covers Record (2000), a collection of sparsely recorded cover songs. After a brief hiatus she reemerged in 2003 with You Are Free, featuring guest musicians Dave Grohl and Eddie Vedder, followed by the soul-influenced The Greatest (2006), recorded with numerous Memphis studio musicians, and a second covers album, Jukebox (2008). In 2012 she released the self-produced Sun, which opened at number 10 on the Billboard 200, the highest charting album of her career to date. Critics have noted the constant evolution of Cat Power's sound, with a \"mix of punk, folk and blues\" on her earliest albums, and elements of soul and other genres more prevalent in her later material. Her 2012 album Sun incorporated electronica, in a self-proclaimed move from the \"really slow guitar songs\" she initially wrote for the album. 153554b96e
