Default Hold Me cover (Hindley Street Country Club)

Not a common Mac song to cover but great vocals and guitar do this song justice.

Yes, nice video. I see they cover other well known songs, not only Mac. Cool band.

I've been hearing this song more and more as time goes on. Sirius plays it a ton. And I've heard it in the stores a few times this year.

Dennis Dunstan and Mick Fleetwood love those guys. In fact, I think Dennis manages them now. The band is Australian. They’re a really precise cover band with good musicianship (see their cover of Bowie’s “Young Americans”). But I still think the best band of that sort in the world is a Russian group called Leonid & Friends. They are peerless with covers of Chicago and Earth Wind & Fire.

Still, it’s a weird sort of brilliance because foundationally you’re just a mimic. You hear something and you craft a direct replica. It’s akin to repainting a Manet.

Apparently Seattle has a local FM cover band that can fill a several hundred seat theater... https://www.kpcenter.org/event/wild-...perience-2025/

I'd watch a cover band in a bar or something but wouldn't pay to sit in a concert/show..


Kirkland Performance Center presents...

WILD RUMOURS – A FLEETWOOD MAC EXPERIENCE
Saturday, November 1, 2025 – 8:00 PM
Tier 1: $62.00
Tier 2: $51.00
Tier 3: $40.00

Description

Wild Rumours – based in Seattle, WA – coalesced around the brilliant music of Fleetwood Mac with the intent of delivering more than a tribute. The core of a Wild Rumours show features all the classic material from the apex Buckingham-Nicks era, treating these songs as “rock standards” to be interpreted with love and imagination. Wild Rumours creates an authentic concert experience for the audience with dramatic crescendos and moments of quiet intimacy. The band, comprised of an all-star cast of Northwest musicians, takes liberty with the material to add their personal stamp on some of the greatest pop music ever created.

About Wild Rumours

Wild Rumours is comprised of six veteran PNW musicians, all with strong pedigrees and deep ties to the local music community. With backgrounds spanning rock, jazz, classical and theater, each member of Wild Rumours brings their own unique talent and experience to bear. The result is a show that transcends the individual contributions, making the whole experience truly greater than the sum of its parts.

Manet Mac paintings! Not to be confused with Monet Mac!
