about

Back in 2017, I visited the Norman Petty Recording Studio in Clovis NM where Buddy Holly (among many others) recorded a majority of his catalog. I didn't know what to expect, but upon entering I was nearly brought to gleeful tears.

Fast forward a little while when I head Buddy Holly by Weezer on the radio. I wondered it Weezer ever actually covered a Buddy Holly song. Turns out they never have, so I thought I'd record a bunch of Buddy Holly songs in the style of Weezer.

Enjoy!

Exotic and otherworldly from one half of A Hawk and A Hacksaw. Think Stereolab meets Os Mutantes and then maybe change your mind seconds later. Just cool as hell! Strange Magic
