“#The Breeders, U.S. Girls, and Tkay Maidza Share Covers for New 4AD Album: Listen”

4AD reached its 40th anniversary as a label last year, and as a belated celebration, it has announced the new covers compilation Bills & Aches & Blues. The collection is out April 2 digitally with vinyl LPs and CDs following on July 23 and a deluxe vinyl box set coming later this year. The first five songs from the compilation are out now—listen to Tkay Maidza covering Pixies, the Breeders covering His Name Is Alive, U.S. Girls covering the Birthday Party, Aldous Harding covering Deerhunter, and Maria Somerville covering Air Miami below.

Other artists featured on the compilation include Big Thief, Tune-Yards, Future Islands, Dry Cleaning, Jenny Hval, Bradford Cox, Helado Negro, Bing & Ruth, and SOHN. Find the full tracklist below.

The first year of profits from Bills & Aches & Blues is going to the Harmony Project—a Los Angeles–based after-school program to help communities without equitable access to arts or music education.
