Uncovered QOTSA is a collection of Queens Of The Stone Age covers performed in a melange of brilliant and unexpected styles, from folk to bossa nova, by Olivier Libaux and a fabulous cast of female singers including Emiliana Torrini and Inara Georgoe (The Bird and The Bee).

Libaux is no stranger to covers – he is a founding member of the French band Nouvelle Vague, internationally known for its catchy, acoustic tributes to the post punk and new wave era.

For this album, Libaux hoped to "take things to another level." A longtime QOTSA fan, Libaux reached out to the band’s leader, Josh Homme, to ask for his blessing before starting the project. Homme sanctioned the album enthusiastically, calling it a "fantastic idea."

Uncovered QOTSA features 12 tracks, intricately arranged and produced by Libaux at his home in Paris. Libaux recorded the backing arrangements and sent them to his performers, who would send him back their vocals.
