The up and coming band Calpurnia are following up the release of their debut EP Scout earlier this year today with their Spotify Singles EP. The four piece said in the press release:
“Inspired by Weezer’s triumphant cover of Toto’s ‘Africa,’ we decided to take on ‘Say It Ain’t So,’ a fan-favourite song on the console game Rock Band. We played that song so many times in the game it inspired us to actually learn how to play it as a band! We also hope people enjoy a different take on our tune Wasting Time, which is the second track on our debut EP Scout.
Recording these songs live at the Spotify Studio was a fantastic way to help us get ready for our upcoming European and Southern US tours, and a great way to pay homage to a band that’s changed music many times over.”

In case you hadn’t noticed, the band is led by Finn Wolfhard of Stranger Things, and the group have also announced additional world tour dates including a run of U.S. dates in early 2019. See below for a full rundown.
