Keeping with his trend of covering indie kid favorites (both Elliott Smith and Radiohead have now received the black-and-white key treatment on record-- the latter twice), classical pianist and "From the Top" radio host Christopher O'Riley will once again interpret the work of a beloved and decidedly non-classical act: the late English folk singer Nick Drake.

As part of UCLA's Artists Without Limits series, O'Riley will premiere "Time Has Told Me: A Nick Drake Tribute" live on February 16 at the university's Royce Hall theater. While there is presently no official word of a Drake covers album release from O'Riley, given the man's track record, we certainly wouldn't rule out the possibility.
