when Okkervil River have release their last album 'The Stand Ins', they've promoted it via their YouTube channel, where they invited artists whom they've met over the years to cover the album's songs.
to celebrate their show in Tel Aviv, we thought it'd be really cool if we invite our musicians friends to perform their covers from the band's repertoire, and so this cute project was created (and many thanks to the fantastic artists who have taken on the challenge).
got your own cover version? don't be shy, send it over!
