Arcade Fire
March 7, 2011
A close friend of mine sent this to me knowing how much I love Arcade Fire and he is friends with the singer and guitarist. This was too good to not post here.
Covering a song is always a risk. You don’t want to just replicate what the original artist did, you need to make it your own and add something new, especially if you want to get noticed.
Brianna Conroy does just that with this Arcade Fire cover of Sprawl II (Mountains beyond Mountains)
She has an incredible talent. Her voice is beautiful and she has added a magical twist on this song by slowing it down and making it acoustic.
With already 4k+ views, I can only hope to help continue to spread this video and help her get even more noticed.
Listen to her cover/mashup of Black Keys Tighten Up / Mad World.
I would love to see her cover an Ellie Goulding or a Lyyke Li song.
