4AD turned 40 last year and, in a bit of a delayed celebration, the label has just announced that next month they’re releasing a covers compilation called Bills & Aches & Blues. It features 18 artists that are currently on their roster covering songs from 4AD’s storied history. Contributors include the Breeders, Bradford Cox, Big Thief, Jenny Hval, Bing And Ruth, Future Islands, and more. The whole compilation will be available 4/2 but every week until then 4AD will share a segment of the songs that are on it.

First up we get the Breeders covering His Name Is Alive’s “Dirt Eaters,” U.S. Girls covering the Birthday Party’s “Junkyard,” Aldous Harding covering Deerhunter’s “Revival,” Tkay Maidza covering Pixies “Where Is My Mind?,” and Maria Somerville covering Air Miami’s “Seabird.”

The first year of proceeds from Bills & Aches & Blues will be donated to the Los Angeles after school program The Harmony Project. Listen to the first round of covers and check out the compilation’s full tracklist below.
