Any artist making music has a wide array of influences from both in and outside of whatever genre they usually play. This is a given, but it can still be a surprise when those artists choose to cover a song that seems so far out of their comfort zone, even if that song had a big impact on the music they create. I try and keep in mind the many influences that tend to go into a song, even if they aren’t at the forefront, so I’m not usually all that surprised when a band or artist decides to cover something a little different.
