Alone

A gritty, blues-infused collaboration with Dan Auerbach. Chrissie Hynde trades new wave polish for garage-rock swagger and a fierce celebration of solitude.

It's Chrissie Hynde fronting a garage-soul band in a Nashville basement, and she's never sounded cooler.

A gritty and soulful celebration of independence delivered with a late-night urban swagger.

Moments Worth Waiting For

The opening title track's spoken-word manifesto on the joys of being alone set against a fuzzy garage riff

The heavy, blues-drenched swagger of 'Gotta Wait' where the drums feel like they're kicking down a door

The vulnerable, organ-led soul of 'Blue Eyed Sky' that breaks the album's tough exterior
