Meshell Ndegeocello, Bill Callahan and Chris Thile release a cover of Bob Dylan’s “With God on Our Side.” The track features Ndegeocello and Callahan, with Thile also credited for singing on the recording.
The release appears as part of Ndegeocello’s duets project, described by outlets as her album *Synonym*, where multiple guest artists contribute across songs. Stereogum reports that Callahan had told writer-directors earlier in the year about recording the collaboration with Ndegeocello, framing the cover as a new joint effort from the veteran indie singer-songwriter. The coverage focuses on the artists’ connection and the inclusion of Thile’s vocals, rather than providing reinterpretation details of the performance.
Across sources, the consistent points are the song selection—Dylan’s “With God on Our Side”—and the lineup of Ndegeocello, Callahan and Thile, with the track tied to Ndegeocello’s duets album context.
