Wanda Jackson turns 75 in October, but the rockabilly icon shows little sign of slowing down. On October 9th, Jackson will release Unfinished Business – her 31st studio album – on Sugar Hill Records. With production by folk musician Justin Townes Earle, the album features performances of Woody Guthrie’s “California Stars” (later set to music by Wilco) and Bobby and Shirley Womack’s “It’s All Over Now.” [RollingStone.com]

While official tour dates still seem to be dribbling out, the First Lady of Rockabilly will be at the Highline Ballroom in NYC on Oct 12, tickets are on sale now. If you can’t wait that long, and you’re willing to make a little trip across the Hudson, you can catch Wanda at Maxwell’s on Aug 18, get your tickets here.
