Weird Chain Coincidence

C couple of years ago, I went to see Mary Chapin Carpenter at the Wells Fargo Theater in Santa Rosa. The opening band, whose name I don't remember, did a cover of The Chain. Last night, I went back to the same venue for the first time since that MCC show to see Brandi Carlile, and she ended up doing an awesome cover of...The Chain

Weird, huh? It was funny to hear Brandi, a woman, singing Lindsey's part, and her band, who are guys, singing Stevie's parts. Here is a link if you feel like taking a listen.

Glad you liked it

I really liked the cello intro too.

Loving these covers. Fun to watch bands act like they actually like the songs...
