Come On Up to the House: Women Sing Waits is a tribute album of Tom Waits songs performed by established female singers. The album was released in late 2019 by Dualtone Records, a couple weeks in advance of Waits' 70th birthday.[3] Among the individual artists and groups featured are Rosanne Cash, Phoebe Bridgers, Iris DeMent, Patty Griffin, Joseph (group), Shelby Lynne & Allison Moorer, Aimee Mann and The Wild Reeds.[4]

The project was initiated by Dualtone president Scott Robinson, who invited author and musician Warren Zanes to serve as producer.[5] Zanes personally contacted most of the artists, offering them the opportunity to select the songs they would like to record. None of the album's 12 tracks was previously released.[6][7]
