St. Vincent - Cover Versions, Volume 1: 2006-2016
Paul NOTEs : Today, I'm having trouble getting the cover art added in. I hoping and assuming this is some technical problem that will soon resolve on its own. When it does, I'll add in the image.
I started to be familiar with the music of St. Vincent when I posted her Glastonbury performance in August 2025. But I didn't know she did a lot of interesting cover versions until musical friend Lil Panda tipped me off. He sent me a bunch of covers. I took that and ran with it, finding a bunch more. In the end, we came up with enough for three albums worth.
One thing I like about her covers is she has a wide range of influences, and often some lesser known ones. Check out the below list to see what I mean.
This album is 50 minutes long.
