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 27-disc box set Steve Reich Collected Works is out now on Nonesuch. It features music recorded during the composer's 40 years on the label—six decades of his compositions, including first recordings of his two latest works, Jacob’s Ladder and Traveler’s Prayer (both also available to stream/download today)—plus two extensive booklets with new essays by Robert Hurwitz, Michael Tilson Thomas, Russell Hartenberger, Judith Sherman, and Nico Muhly, and a comprehensive listener’s guide by Timo Andres. Nonesuch made its first record with Steve Reich in 1985; he was signed exclusively to the label that year. Collected Works includes 24 discs of Nonesuch recordings and three from other labels. You can watch an unboxing video narrated by the composer here.

    Cinematic electro-pop duo Ringdown, featuring Danni Lee Parpan and Pulitzer and Grammy winner Caroline Shaw, will release its debut album, Lady on the Bike, May 9. The album celebrates the feeling of possibility in myriad forms: the possibility of love; the possibility of creating connection and community in a world trying to pull those things apart; the possibility of making music in new ways. Ringdown will create additional custom sleeves for the first 50 Nonesuch Store vinyl orders. The duo will perform with Sō Percussion and in its own headlining shows this spring and summer.
