Wallflower is the twelfth studio album by Canadian singer and songwriter Diana Krall, released on February 3, 2015 by Verve Records.[4] The album was produced by David Foster.[5] The album's supporting tour, Wallflower World Tour, began in Boston on February 25, 2015.

Recording

The album tracks are cover songs of various pop and rock hits. The only track that had never been released before is "If I Take You Home Tonight" by Paul McCartney. He wrote the song for his album Kisses on the Bottom, in which he collaborated with Krall. Although the song didn't make the cut for that album, Krall asked McCartney if she could record the song, and he gave his consent.[6]

Commercial performance

Wallflower debuted at number two on the Canadian Albums Chart, selling 13,000 copies in its first week.[7] As of January 2016, the album had sold 66,000 copies in Canada.[8]

In the United States, it entered the Billboard 200 at number 10 with first-week sales of 44,000 copies, becoming Krall's sixth top-10 album on the chart.[9] The album debuted at number 19 on the UK Albums Chart with 3,511 copies sold in its first week.[10]
