Gengahr and that cool Fugazi Cover
- News
With the release of their debut album A Dream Outside just around the corner North London’s group Gengahr share their extremely cool version of Fugazi’s ‘I’m So Tired’
Recorded and mixed in a day over at Urchin Studios, it’s an absolute success.
Explaining why they chose the track, frontman Felix Bushe says “Fugazi was a group that really influenced us early on when we started playing in bands. The song is a real favourite of ours and a bit of a hidden gem. There's very little instrumentation on the original so we had a lot of freedom to elaborate.”
