Mavis Staples has announced a new album that features the songwriting talents of a wide range of artists. Livin’ On A High Note will be released on February 19 on Anti- Records.

After having her previous two albums produced by Wilco’s Jeff Tweedy, Staples enlisted M Ward for Livin’ On A High Note. Ward also lends his songwriting skills, joining Bon Iver’s Justin Vernon, Neko Case, Nick Cave, Ben Harper, John Batiste, Aloe Blacc, tUnT-yArDs and more as those who provided songs for the record.

Staples describes her inspiration for bringing in the all-star cast of songwriters, saying, “I’ve been singing my freedom songs and I wanted to stretch out and sing some songs that were new. I told the writers I was looking for some joyful songs. I want to leave something to lift people up; I’m so busy making people cry, not from sadness, but I’m always telling a part of history that brought us down and I’m trying to bring us back up. These songwriters gave me a challenge. They gave me that feeling of, ‘Hey, I can hang! I can still do this!’”

Today, Pitchfork premiered the Valerie June-penned track “High Note,” which can be heard below. See a full list of the album’s songwriting credits below the song.

A new documentary on Staples, Mavis!, will premiere on HBO on February 29.
