Wallflowers leader Jakob Dylan is set to follow-up his 2008 solo debut, Seeing Things, with a sophomore set called Women and Country on April 6.
The new album was pulled together by hero producer T-Bone Burnett, who helmed Robert Plant and Alison Krauss' winning Raising Sand, among many other projects, and Burnett's tapped many of the musicians who appeared on Raising Sand, including including bassist Dennis Crouch, drummer Jay Bellerose and multi-instrumentalist Marc Ribot.
Dylan has some other noteworthy collaborators on Country, too: Powerful Americana voices Neko Case and Kelly Hogan add backing vocals to eight of the set's 11 songs.
(Speaking of collaborators -- if you saw Dylan live on tours supporting Seeing Things, you likely saw some talented Nashvillians collaborating with him there, including guitar whiz Audley Freed and drummer Fred Eltringham.)
The Women and Country tracklisting follows after the jump. Tour news in support of the new album is expected soon.
