Songs That Didn't Need to be Covered...or Did They?

Set up live gigs with each other, announce gigs you're playing around the country or whatever, talk about how the show went, post links to recordings, etc.

Songs That Didn't Need to be Covered...or Did They?

Post by MisterQuoons »

Not sure if this is the right place for this or not, but whatever, it seems as good a spot as any.

Just alerting anyone who might happen to be interested that I am undertaking a new project entitled Songs That Didn't Need to be Covered...or Did They?

Basically, the idea is that every week I record a cover of a different song, usually taking it out of its original intended musical context and reworking it in my own bizarre idiom. The songs will be posted here on my website:

http://www.therealmuffin.net/projects_covers.html

The first song in this project is a completely ridiculous T-Pain-esque cover of an old Randy Travis song that my roommate challenged me to do, because he likes pop country for God knows what reason. The plan is to continue releasing at least one new cover song every Wednesday in perpetuity, or at least until I get bored or run out of songs I want to cover.

Also, I am accepting suggestions. If you have a particular song in mind that you would like to hear covered by the likes of me, feel free to PM it to me, and I will add it to the to-do list. It can be pretty much any song you like. Also, I will cover the song in a style of your choosing, if you like.
