Bif is back! On Dec. 4, the illustrious Ms. Naked releases her newest offering to patiently waiting Bif-o-philes everywhere. The album, her first in three years, is called Bif Naked Forever: Acoustic Hits & Other Delights.
At the core of the project are nearly a dozen newly recorded acoustic renderings of songs written over her 20-year career, including audience faves “Love Myself Today,” “Moment of Weakness” and “Spaceman.” Add to that two brand spankin' new songs given a decidedly pop treatment, and the result is a fresh direction for an artist who has always known how to engage her audience.
“This is such an extraordinary time in my life, and in my art,” Bif Naked said in a press release. “Music and art give me hope, and this record has been made with warm love and deep feelings that I so enjoy sharing with my beautiful fans.”

Tracklist
The new studio tracks, produced and co-written by Ryan Stewart (Carly Rae Jepsen, Victoria Duffield), may lead to a double take for those who are versed in Bif Naked’s rock and punk pedigree. But the transition to pop princess by the woman known for her uncompromising rocker cred somehow seems perfectly natural.
“Bif is totally herself whether she’s rocking out with a full band, or going acoustic with just her vocals and guitar,” says songwriter and record label exec, John Dexter. “The pop approach on Forever still has Bif’s amazing lyric writing and emotional connection. It’s the same Bif Naked we know and love.”
