On this edition of All Songs Considered we spin some of the albums we're most looking forward to coming out this fall. Hear sneak previews of new music from The Flaming Lips, choral versions of classic Kinks songs by Ray Davies, Glen Hansard and Marketa Irglova of The Swell Season, a collaboration between The Black Keys and some of the biggest names in hip-hop, The Gossip, and more.

On this edition of All Songs Considered: The Chapel Hill, NC band Polvo, new music from the Danish band Mew, singer-songwriter A.A. Bondy, an ambitious new album from the folk-rock group Noah and the Whale, an intercontinental collaboration via e-mail from the band Bell Horses, and Swedish musician Axel Willner, a.k.a. The Field.

On this edition of All Songs Considered we've got an unusual new project from Victoria Bergsman. Known as the singer for the Swedish band The Concretes and the Peter Bjorn and John song "Young Folks," Bergsman mixes her distinctive voice and Swedish pop sounds with Sufi devotional music from Pakistan for a new band she calls Taken By Trees. Also on the show: Bon Iver's Justin Vernon returns with a group of friends called Volcano Choir, Senegalese singer Baaba Maal, and more.

We never thought we'd do it, but on this edition of All Songs Considered, we've got a tribute to Doris Day. Nellie McKay, an often irreverent and comical singer, reworks songs made popular by Day on a new album called As Normal As Blueberry Pie. Hear McKay's spare and elegant arrangement of "The Very Thought of You." Also on the program: a retrospective from the old-time string band New Lost City Ramblers; dreamy folk from the Canadian trio The Weather Station; the British electro-rock duo The Big Pink; experimental soundscapes from Blind Man's Colour; and the Vijay Iyer Trio remembers the music of Julius Hemphill.
