Wanda Jackson will be the guest on NPR's World Cafe today. Tune in to hear Jackson perform songs from her recently released Third Man / Nonesuch Records debut album, The Party Ain't Over, and talk with host David Dye about recording the album with producer Jack White. To find out where and when World Cafe is airing near you, visit npr.org. You can also hear the show streaming today at 2 PM ET at xpn.org.

Jackson resumes her US tour later this month at Lincoln Hall in Chicago and continues through the spring, including performances at the Stagecoach festival and at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame's annual benefit concert in May.

She will also be featured in a new exhibit at the Hall of Fame titled Women Who Rock: Vision, Passion, Power, which opens May 13. The exhibit will document the important roles women have played in rock and roll, highlighting, says the Hall, "the flashpoints, the firsts, the best, the celebrated—and sometimes lesser-known women—who moved rock and roll music and the American culture forward." For more information, visit rockhall.com.

The Washington Post, reviewing Jackson's recent performance at the 9:30 Club, said The Party Ain't Over offers "a fresh gateway to Jackson's music—a gutsy, greasy strain of seminal heartland rock-and-roll to which any White Stripes fan is probably susceptible."

    The Way Out of Easy, the first album from guitarist Jeff Parker and his long-running ETA IVtet—saxophonist Josh Johnson, bassist Anna Butterss, drummer Jay Bellerose—since their 2022 debut Mondays at the Enfield Tennis Academy, which Pitchfork named one of the Best Albums of the 2020s So Far, is out now on International Anthem / Nonesuch Records. Like that album, The Way Out of Easy comprises recordings from LA venue ETA, where Parker and the ensemble held a weekly residency for seven years. During that time, the ETA IVtet evolved from a band that played mostly standards into a group known for its transcendent, long-form journeys into innovative, groove-oriented improvised music. All four tracks on The Way Out of Easy come from a single night in 2023, providing an unfiltered view of the ensemble, fully in their element.

    The Staves' new EP Happy New Year, out today, includes three acoustic versions of tracks from their new album, All Now—"I Don't Say It, But I Feel It," "After School," and "All Now"—and a cover of The Beatles' "She's Leaving Home." Also out now: an acoustic performance video for "After School," which the duo calls "a love song to our sister Emily inspired by the bands we were listening to in the '90s. Putting on the rose-tinted glasses and embracing nostalgia."
