Covers

Calpurnia are back with a Rough Trade Shops exclusive 7" featuring two stunning covers. On the A-Side is their take on Weezer's Say It Ain't So whilst on the flip is the Pixies Where is My Mind.

Stranger Things actor Finn Wolfhard sings lead and plays guitar for Calpurnia, along with Ayla Tesler-Mabe on vocals and lead guitar, Jack Anderson on bass and Malcolm Craig on drums. The young band hailed Weezer, particularly The Blue Album, as one of the most influential alternative albums of all time. “Weezer paved the way for that nerd rock sound,” Wolfhard said. Guitarist Tesler-Mabe said that Say It Ain’t So was actually her go-to selection on Rock Band 2, but in reality, it’s much more intricate.
