King Princess covers Steely Dan’s ‘Dirty Work’ for ‘Hacks’ season 3
King Princess has released a cover of Steely Dan‘s ‘Dirty Work’ – listen to it below.
Released on all major streaming platforms today (May 3), King Princess’ cover of the iconic Steely Dan cut was recorded for HBO Max‘s third season of Hacks. Per a report from Consequence of Sound, King Princess’ ‘Dirty Work’ cover came to fruition after she became friends with series star Hannah Einbinder.
King Princess said via a statement: “Hacks is hilarious and so is my good bud, Hannah Einbinder. She asked me to sing ‘Dirty Work’ and it was a no brainer. Everyone should watch this show, it’s tremendously iconic.”

King Princess most recently teased that she’s finished recording her third album, which has yet to receive a title or release date. The musician – real name Mikaela Straus – is next due to make her acting debut in the second season of Amazon Prime Video‘s Nine Perfect Strangers alongside Nicole Kidman; a release date has yet to be announced as the series entered production in March.
King Princess’ latest album ‘Hold on Baby’ scored a three-star review upon its release in 2022, with El Hunt writing for NME: “‘Hold On Baby’’s brightest moments may be more than enough to keep the die-hard KP fans hooked, but this feels like a missed chance to offer up something truly surprising.”
Steely Dan are soon set to begin a tour with Eagles in the UK later this month. Tickets are on sale now and can be purchased from here.
