Scarlett Johansson has announced that she will release her debut album, 'Anywhere I Lay My Head' this spring.

The Hollywood actress collaborated with Yeah Yeah Yeahs guitarist Nick Zinner on the album, which features 10 covers of Tom Waits songs and one original track. The album is due out in the US on May 20.

Johansson recorded the album at Louisiana's Dockside Studios with producer David Sitek (TV On The Radio).

This is far from Johannson's first foray into the music world. The star appeared in Justin Timberlake's video for 'What Goes Around' and sang on stage with The Jesus And Mary Chain at last year's Coachella Festival.
