Steve Miller Band chronology
Bingo! (2010) Let Your Hair Down (2011)

Let Your Hair Down was recorded alongside the group's previous album, Bingo!, which was released 10 months earlier. Like Bingo!, this album is a collection of blues and R&B covers, and as of 2025, it is Steve Miller Band's most recent studio album.

Like Bingo, the artwork was designed by StormStudios, with a plethora of visual puns used in the pictures (the cover shows a man with no hair, but a hare sitting on his head, and a small ladder at the side).
