52 Covers – Week Nine

Keep your eyes on the road if you attempt this. I thought I’d try to catch up on my 7 hour drive home from Richmond.

52 Covers – Week Eight

Another cover video. This time U2′s “With or Without You”

I used my looping station on this one and it also turned out to be one of my better recordings in terms of sound quality. Just ignore the crappy guitar solo I tried to make up on the fly. Also, its pretty long, so I recommend just letting it play in the background after the first few minutes.

52 Covers – Week Seven

Sorry, classes just finally finished up, so I got a little behind. However this was recorded during Week Seven. Just not posted then. I have ground I need to make up still, so stay tuned. I’ve also been experimenting with the recording equipment I use, which calls for extra work when putting the videos together.

52 Covers – Week Six

So I recorded this yesterday. So technically it was done last week.

But this week has been particularly busy. Sorry. Just hold on!

52 Covers – Week Five

This week I was in Philadelphia with some of my family, so my brother Jared joined me on the piano! The song is “Silvertown” by the Pushstars. The audio is a bit rough, sorry.

52 Covers – Week Two

Nick — Mon, 19 Mar 2012 15:06:52 +0000

This one is a little weird. I was sitting around trying to decide what to play and ended messing around with the Animals’ “House of the Rising Son” and thought, what if someone made this into a dance song or something. No drums or bass on it right now, and in fact my guitar playing and signing is pretty sketchy. But I was making it up on the spot, so I’ll use that as my excuse.

52 Covers – Week One

Nick — Mon, 12 Mar 2012 16:19:38 +0000

52 covers performed over 52 weeks. That’s right, in an attempt to get myself to practice and play my guitar more, I decided I’m going to undertake a project that will make me do just that. Not much to it, just me and my guitar, and once a week. I’m always of course open to guest musicians, even if you play the weirdest instrument. Here’s the inaugural video:
