My Brightest Diamond, Long Winters, Apostle of Hustle Cover Huey Lewis
Or: Huey Lewis in the news
A few weeks back, there appeared in Forkcast a My Brightest Diamond cover of the Huey Lewis and the News song "Naturally". The song is from a forthcoming compilation titled Are You Still With Me?! A Tribute to Huey Lewis and the News. The compilation still has no label nor specific release date in 2008, and both the line-up and tracklist await finalization. But the project's MySpace has information about some of the other contributors, for those wondering if Shara Worden was the only one who had rediscovered the heart of rock and roll.
Those contributors include Apostle of Hustle, the Long Winters, Centro-matic's Will Johnson, Bound Stems, Oh No! Oh My!, Windsor for the Derby, and Catfish Haven, among many others. In fact, all of the confirmed contributors are listed below in alphabetical order, along with the songs they cover and the Lewis/News albums they're from.
