Cover Songs

The Beatles, Hendrix, The White Stripes, Cat Power, Aretha ... popular music is strewn with acts for whom a cover song has proven no compromise to credibility. This spotlight proves that popular music in New Zealand is no different. Alongside chart toppers from The Holidaymakers, Tex Pistol and cover queens When the Cat's Away, Crummer does Clapton, Jon Steven goes slightly Jamaican, Head Like a Hole go epic ... and re-make/re-models of the hook-filled 'Nature' and 'Shoop Shoop' gain added guitars.
