There isn’t much to say here except that Oakland-based band TRAILS AND WAYS know how to do indie rock right. They are able to fashion together their own original music AND reinvent familiar songs in completely refreshing ways. If that feat isn’t impressive enough, take into account the fact that they’re covering big-named artists that aren’t necessarily even in the band’s genre: M83, Miguel, Miike Snow. Listen below and download the entire 3-cover set on their Bandcamp here.
’Trails And Ways – Animal (Miike Snow Cover)’
’Trails and Ways – Sure Thing (Miguel Cover)’
’Trails and Ways – Midnight City (M83 Cover)’
Bonus: The wonderful “Mtn Tune,” which we included in one of our past Indie Dojos, but is so good that it warrants another mention.
