SPEND YOUR WEEKEND UNDER THE COVERS! A Special “Weekends are For Singles” all-covers edition!

Kicking it off with Say Lou Lou’s breathy cover of the Bee Gees–don’t throw disco out, there’s good tunes in there! I love what she does with this song–she keeps the disco beat, but gives it a more modern sound…

Traveler has an entire album of covers out. Check out their take on Foo Fighters…
