Dirty - which will be released on May 26th via Well's own label, creative control - follows her acclaimed 2008 album, The Symphonies: Dreams Memories & Parties.
"I love the studio," says Wells, who performs live as a trio, bringing drummer Sam Halterman and bassist Joey Reina along with her. "So I do a lot of live sampling and looping in an attempt to bring the studio to the stage. All the live looping is like a sporting event, or keeping the first take of every recording. I could fall off the balance beam...which makes it all so much more exciting."
The track listing for Dirty is as follows:
1. Symphony 6: Fair Thee Well & the Requiem Mix
2. Symphony 4: America's Mercy War
3. Juicy
4. Symphony 9 & the Sunshine (remix)
5. Whiskey & Rags
6. Take It Easy San Francisco
