Stream: The Crystal Ark, “Tusk (Fleetwood Mac Cover)”

July 19, 2012


At first, The Crystal Ark seems like a surprising addition to the Just Tell Me That You Want Me tribute album, but then, when you think about the fact that they're covering Tusk’s bombastic title track, which was famously recorded live with the USC marching band at Dodger Stadium, it all makes sense. This would be the east coast art school equivalent (RISD marching band?), with Gavin Russom at the helm directing his squad through an expertly skewed cover. Just Tell Me That You Want Me is out August 14th on Hear Music/Concord.
