<\/div>\n

Chrissie Hynde<\/a> slides into a smooth French croon with her version of \u201cQue Reste-t-il De nos Amours?\u201d, the 1942 Chanson song by Charles Trenet.<\/span> Throughout the breezy track, Hynde sweetly sings over jazzy piano, billowing strings, brushed drums and upright bass.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cQue Reste-t-il De nos Amours?\u201d appears on the Pretenders singer\u2019s upcoming covers LP, Valve Bone Woe<\/em>, which also features jazz-inspired takes on songs from the Beach Boys (\u201cCaroline No\u201d<\/a>), Frank Sinatra, John Coltrane, Nick Drake, Charles Mingus (\u201cMeditation on a Pair of Wire Cutters\u201d<\/a>) and Ray Davies, among others.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m not hugely interested in branching out into other musical genres, being a devout rock singer as such, but jazz is something I grew up around (thanks to my bro) and I\u2019ve always had a soft spot for it,\u201d Hynde said in a statement announcing the record, which she recorded with the Valve Bone Ensemble in London. \u201cI often bemoan what I regard as a decline in melody in popular music and I wanted to sing melodies. Plus, I have a penchant for cover songs, it\u2019s the surprise of singing something that I didn\u2019t think of writing myself that turns me on.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Hynde will perform much of the album with a special concert on Saturday, July 6th at the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles. She will also play two shows this fall in London: September 14th as part of the BBC\u2019s Proms in the Park and November 24th during the London Jazz Festival.<\/span><\/p>\n
