Swings and Waterslides - Viola Beach cover for Lost-in-2016 fest

[ODH]

Viola Beach were an upcoming young indie band who all died in a car crash in Sweden in February last year.  I did read the tragic story at the time, but I didn't recognise the band or try to find out about them.

Thanks to this fest I went and listened to their music and I'm glad I did.

This is two Telecaster tracks (Tele for indie, Les Paul for rock), bass from GB and drums from DM-1

I remember reading about this - a sad tale, a young band in their prime. Sad. Didn't know their music, this is a fine choice, great job - this suits your style very well. Excellent recording and performance.

It was a tragic loss - a young band on the verge of major success and a promising career in music. A great cover - you've captured that feeling of youthfulness in your performance. A fitting tribute !
