Rilo Kiley singer Jenny Lewis has revealed details about her upcoming solo album. Lewis tells MTV.com that Rabbit Fur Coat (out January 24) will include a cover of The Traveling Wilburys' "Handle With Care," with Death Cab For Cutie's Ben Gibbard and Conor Oberst of Bright Eyes taking the place of Roy Orbison and Bob Dylan. "This album is basically me paying homage to all my inspirations. I used to have a 'no covers' policy in Rilo Kiley, which I guess was me being stubborn," Lewis told MTV.com. "I've always loved the Traveling Wilburys, and I thought about who could sing the different parts. And I thought, well, Ben could play Roy, because his voice is so pure and beautiful, and of course I thought of Conor doing the Dylan part, which I think is pretty awesome and humorous in its own right."
