Next month, Cat Power will debut her 10th studio album, Wanderer, the follow-up to 2012’s Sun. She’s already released the single “Woman,” which features Lana Del Rey, and today she unveiled “Stay,” a reworking of the 2012 Rihanna and Mikky Ekko record from the album Unapologetic. In the Greg Hunt-filmed video, Marshall performs a softer, slower rendition of “Stay” in a dusk-lit Los Angeles studio.

In a press release, Chan Marshall says of the track: “I love the tradition of covering songs, I think it’s one of the highest compliments you can pay another artist. It’s one of the great traditions in American music and one of the true pleasures of music history.” Later this month, Cat Power will embark on an international tour covering much of North America and Europe. Wanderer arrives on October 5. Watch the video for “Stay” and check out the full tour schedule below.
