An all-women Tom Waits tribute album, Come On Up To The House: Women Sing Waits, will be released later this year.

The album, due out 22 November, features 12 of Waits' iconic tracks including a cover of Take It With Me by Australia's own Angie McMahon

The cover, which premiered on Billboard yesterday, and the rest of the tribute album was produced by artist, author, and composer Warren Zanes.

Speaking to Billboard earlier in the week, Zanes said, "Being a lifelong Waits fan, and interested in what it means to apply the female voice in particular to this catalog, I was on board right away.

"I've approached music from multiple angles, on many levels, but this is something I hadn't done before. I knew I was going to come out the other side having learned something, and that appeals to me."

The album also features Phoebe Bridgers, Aimee Mann, Patty Griffin, Rosanne Cash and more.
