Scarlett Johansson played her debut album, 'Anywhere I Lay My Head', to journalists at a listening party in New York yesterday.
Billboard reports that the launch took place at Joe's Pub in the city.
'Anywhere I Lay My Head' features 10 covers of Tom Waits songs and one original track, 'Song for Jo'; it will be released on 20 May.
Johansson said that she had originally planned to record an album of standards but then decided to celebrate Waits' material.
"His melodies are so beautiful and his voice is so distinct," she said.
Johansson said that her interpretations of the music legend's songs have met with his approval.
"I sent him some of the early, early recordings, and he said, 'Go ahead'. I've heard he's very pleased," said the star.
While Johansson has no plans at present to do live shows, she said the idea of possibly doing a festival date with the musicians who worked on the album would be intriguing.
