Cat Power to release Redux EP and tour The Greatest in full in 2026
Chan Marshall, who performs as Cat Power, will mark the 20th anniversary of her 2006 album The Greatest with a new three-song EP and an extensive international tour in 2026. Redux, recorded with the touring ensemble Dirty Delta Blues, will be released digitally and on 10-inch vinyl on January 23, 2026. The tour will present The Greatest in its entirety at each show, with North American dates in February and March followed by a European run in October and United Kingdom and Ireland dates in November.
Marshall reassembled Dirty Delta Blues for the Redux sessions. The band features guitarist Judah Bauer, keyboardist Gregg Foreman, bassist Erik Paparozzi and drummer Jim White. Recording took place earlier this year at Church House Studios in Austin, Texas with producer and engineer Stuart Sikes. Redux includes a newly finished recording of James Brown’s Try Me, a reimagined version of Marshall’s Could We in the arrangement used on The Greatest tour, and a rendition of Prince’s Nothing Compares 2 U recorded in tribute to the late guitarist Teenie Hodges, who played on the original album sessions.
