Tom Waits is one of several guests appearing on Marc Ribot’s new album Songs Of The Resistance 1942 – 2018 which comes out Friday on ANTI- Records. Waits is featured on the newly shared single “Bella Ciao (Goodbye Beautiful).”

Along with Waits, Ribot enlisted the talents of Meshell Ndegeocello, Steve Earle, Sam Amidon, Justin Vivian Bond, Fay Victor, Tift Merritt and Ohene Cornelius. The 11 song protest album mixes traditional folk songs with new originals.
