[COVER] The Limousines – “Call Me Al” (Paul Simon cover)

if you be my bodyguard i could be your long lost pal

♫ The Limousines – Call Me Al (Paul Simon Cover)

The Limousines were in the pipeline for a post on their jam “Internet Killed The Video Star” (and it’s fun video) a few years back but somehow never made the cut. Leave it to a fun Paul Simon cover to get them back in the mix! Although, any excuse to resurrect this track is a good one. People would … continue reading

[COVER] Birdy – “1901″ (Phoenix cover)

♫ Birdy – 1901 (Phoenix Cover)

Who: A 15 year old girl. I know, right?
What: Girl-with-pipes-singer-songwriter, like young Ellie Goulding, Florence & The Machine.
Where: UK + Facebook / Soundcloud / Amazon
When: Her self-titled album of covers (+1 original) is only out in the UK.
Why: More rewards reaped from the comments of the Best Covers post! Apparently I totally missed the phenomenon of Birdy that happened last year as the girl covered a who’s-who of TBE favorites

♫ ANR – Millionaire (Kelis cover)

Just because Christmas is over doesn’t mean that the giving spirit doesn’t live on! TBE alums ANR dished out a 2-song gift over holidays and while their cover of “Little Drummer Boy” may have to … continue reading

[VIDEO] Daniel and the Lion – “Holocene” (Bon Iver cover)

Yesterday’s Best Covers of 2011 list sparked some suggestions from you guys and one of them was this stunning version of “Holocene” by a band I know nothing about but damn if this Daniel guy doesn’t have a voice like a lumberjack angel. And can we get a collective jaw drop for that xylophone work!? Plus props to Ross for diving in uninvited.

[COVER] Capital Cities – “Holiday” (Madonna cover)

holiday, celebrate

♫ Capital Cities – Holiday

In honor of the.. oh forget it. This song is for the holidays, about holidays, and honestly Capital Cities should just have a holiday named after them they are so jamming. It’s a cover of the Madonna song that I wasn’t so keen on; let’s just say I am now keen. If you missed it, their EP dropped this year and you can also check the video for the cover here.

[COVER] Sunday Girl – “Where Is My Mind” (Pixies cover)

with your feet in the air and your head on the ground, try this trick and spin it, yeah

♫ Sunday Girl – Where Is My Mind (Pixies cover)

Holy smokes. Silence everything and let this one play loud against the hollow air of winter. If all the attention this song has gotten since Fight Club has worn it a bit thin then this will breath life right back in. Sunday Girl strips the Pixies classic to a bones of keys … continue reading

Artwork by Jacob Youngblood Ziegler

Brandon’s TBE Digest is a place where I gather up all the recent jams that are worth a listen (or 10) but don’t necessarily need their own post. Here you will find new tracks by known bands, remixes, covers, and even mashups if they are interesting. My favorites of the lot are in bold.

This may be the last Digest I do like this. I’d really like to take the time to give the best … continue reading
