Under the Covers

I am a big fan of cover songs.  I guess it might go back to all of the bar bands I have listened to over the years.   I am going to try to have a weekly posting dedicated to a cover song.  This week's post is a cover of Bruce Springsteen's 'Glory Days' by The Avett Brothers.
Here is the video: 

The Avett Brothers are a fun, rockin' bluegrass band out of North Carolina.  
Here is a track from their album Emotionalism:

Ken,
I have a soft spot for covers as well. Look forward to the weekly selections. Here's something you may enjoy -- the Watson Twins cover of Just Like Heaven

Matt-
I have that cover in my collection. I like it a lot. Did you ever listen to the album they did with Jenny Lewis?

Ken,
not familiar with jenny Lewis. Will check it out. Going to see the English
Beat next weekend here in Thousand Oaks. Dave Wakeling fronts the band. Should be good fun
