We’re big fans of good covers over at Sidewalk Hustle, probably our favourite part of a live show is when an artist covers another awesome artist, especially at the indie stages of the game when they might not have enough materials to fill a normal length set. So naturally we were pumped when we heard Tavi Gevinson’s Rookie Magazine had featured the twin sister duo Katie and Allison Crutchfield covering Grimes smash hit “Oblivion.”
In case you don’t know, Katie tours with Waxahatchee and Allsion is the front woman for the indie rock group Swearin’, so they’re well equipped to cover the tune in style, and they certainly did not disappoint! Inspired by Claire Boucher’s lyrics about an experience with assault, the rocker duo revamped the track in a really rad way.
Give it a spin below.
