Tegan & Sara x Steel Train

Tegan & Sara x Steel Train

Steel Train opened for Tegan & Sara this winter, which may be where they got the idea for Terrible Thrills Vol. 1, an album of female artists covering songs from their upcoming self-titled album. Their list of covers artists is impressive: In addition to Tegan & Sara, they’ve recruited Scarlett Johansson
, Holly Miranda
, Deradoorian
, Alia Shawkat, and 
Amanda Palmer
. Tegan & Sara’s interpretation was made with help from RAC’s Andre Allen Anjos, who turns it into a rollerskate jam with lots of tinkling keyboards and a simple bass melody taken from the original’s drums.

Terrible Thrills Vol. 1 comes with pre-orders of Steel Train’s s/t album, out 6/29 via Terrible Thrills.
