You Blew It! have premiered a track off their 5-track Weezer covers EP titled, “You Blue It” on music blog Stereogum.
In the interview with Stereogum, frontman / guitarist Tanner Jones said,
We chose Surf Wax because it’s a really great song, plain and simple. We didn’t want to do singles from the record, and luckily Surf Wax is one of those cuts that could have held its own as one, but seemed untouched enough to allow a fresh perspective on it. Not that we or any other band could, but we really didn’t want to try and out-do Weezer. Our goal was to add our touch to Blue, but first and foremost, we wanted pay tribute to the songs themselves in the most respectful way possible. Surf Wax is a great example of that I think.”
Topshelf Records will release the You Blue It EP digitally on 15 July, followed by a vinyl release on 12 August.
You Blew It!’s latest LP, the critically acclaimed Keep Doing What You’re Doing, has recently landed on a number of mid-year Best-Of lists, including Stereogum.
