I was listening to the radio today, when this tune caught my ear and I had a hard time placing the song. I knew it had to be a cover because it sounded so familiar, but I wasn't quite sure. Then it hit me: Ocean Breathes Salty, from Modest Mouse, but played to Bluegrass music. Oy.
So, I went online, and it turns out to be a series of CDs, all hillbilly chic, paying tribute to the likes of AC/DC, Metallica, Led Zepellin, Jimmy Buffett, U2, the Stones, Counting Crows, Alanis Morissette, you name it, they do it. Jimmy Buffett???
Feeling Sexy Plexi, but at the same time melancholic of those good ole family values? Take a listen to the one on Jack Johnson! Thinking of improving that Minnie Pearl drag of yours? Double your pleasure with Rodeo Clowns!
O brother, were art thou..?
