A couple of interesting releases coming up, both from longstanding MM faves, on the excellent Mexican Summer label.

The first recorded Weyes Blood music since her 2016 breakthrough album Front Row Seat To Earth, Natalie Mering will release a 7″ of cover songs that have helped define her sound over the years. It contains versions of Soft Machines’ A Certain Kind b/w Fred Neil’s Everybody’s Talkin’, as imagined by Harry Nilsson for the Midnight Cowboy soundtrack.

 

Allah-Las also release the first cover track from their forthcoming EP, Covers #1, sharing their take on Kathy Heidman’s The Earth Won’t Hold Me.
