Indie-folk artist Alicia Blue releases cover of Fleetwood Mac's "Dreams"
Indie-folk artist Alicia Blue unveiled their cover of Fleetwood Mac's "Dreams" yesterday.
Blue said this about taking on the beloved Fleetwood Mac tune, which is out on digital services right now:
"I get it, it’s a pretty bold choice. I suppose the rule is that if you can’t make it better don’t do it. But sometimes it’s a heart thing and you just have to go for it. This one kinda poured out of me.
"I’ve never had a cover put me in my body like making 'Dreams' did. Perhaps I avoided it for years knowing how much it affected me. But I knew I had to present it to my producer, Dan Knobler, and his crew, to see what we could do with it. The people in the room were everything, which is why I think we succeeded with this one. Dan’s guitars, Jason Burger’s drums, and Will Honaker on bass and keys were a revelation. It’s a humble take, but also deadly serious and from my heart."
The cover arrives before the release of Blue’s forthcoming EP Inner Child Work PT. 2, which is out on March 3 via Magnetic Moon.
On Monday (January 30), the artist will perform at Los Angeles’ Bardot alongside Madison McFerrin, LAYTO, and Virginia To Vegas for School Night. Tickets are on sale to the general public here.
