In other Counting Crows-related news, last year MJ Lenderman treated his fans to a cover of Counting Crow‘s ‘A Long December’ at one of his shows.
As per Stereogum, his cover followed his other Wednesday bandmate, vocalist Karly Hartzman performing her own rendition of ‘A Long December’. The moment took place during a gig at Cat’s Cradle in Carrboro, North Carolina on December 17, where she was joined by Wednesday bassist Ethan Baechtold.
Unlike Lenderman’s version, which felt true to the original song, Hartzman took a stripped-back approach and performed an acoustic version of the track, making the song much more emotional than it already is.
