Although widely known these days for her multi-faceted role as Gemma Teller Morrow on hit FX series Sons of Anarchy, Sagal has had a long musical career in addition to her acting career. She has sung backup vocals for Bette Midler, Bob Dylan, Tanya Tucker, Gene Simmons and others. Sagal has released two solo albums to date, 1994 s Well.... and 2004 s Room. She has also contributed music to the Sons of Anarchy soundtrack. Covered is Sagal s first studio album in 9 years, and features a duet with Jackson Browne on Steve Earle s heartbreaking song Goodbye. The album also features covers of songs by noted songwriters Laura Nyro, Joni Mitchell, Ron Sexsmith, Tom Petty, Ryan Adams and more. Season six of Sons of Anarchy, the highest-rated program in the history of FX, debuted on Tuesday, September 10. About the album, Sagal says: Covered is my third solo record. My two previous records were mostly original compositions. This one is not. I was tired of waiting for myself to write, and anxious to make another album. On Covered, Sagal is joined by The Forest Rangers, the house band of Sons of Anarchy, led by the show s music supervisor and musical director Bob Thiele. Thiele, along with noted songwriter Tonio K, also composed the one original composition on Covered, titled Follow the River. Sagal adds, Covered is the combined effort of Bob and myself, discovering and interpreting an eclectic mix of music that I connected with. Some of the songs reflect on my younger life, and some from music I listen to now...material from Ryan Adams, Ray LaMontagne, Steve Earle, etc. All have personal meaning and reason for me to want to sing them.
