If you didn’t think you needed a sultry version of the pained Nirvana classic, “Heart-Shaped Box,” Amber Mark is making a case for why you’re wrong by thinking that. The New York artist is sharing her rendition of the In Utero track as part of a series of covers and originals to be released over the coming weeks titled Covered-19.
Each cover is entirely self-produced and recorded from her NYC flat during the lockdown, and she’s sharing music videos as well.
Watch the video for this cover above.
Amber Mark provided some insight into the project via the press release:
For me, making music in the Covid-19 quarantine has probably been the only positive to come out of a tragedy like this. All the pressure I normally feel when working on music is lifted. And I just have this ‘f**k it’ mentality. People get to really see you in your most bare state and vice versa. That’s the beauty in the music I’m making right now. It’s just me whipping up whatever I’m feeling. Keeping it minimal has been the key mentality for me and just having fun with it. I used to stress so much about visuals and the message I was sending with my music. I’ve learned a lot about myself already during the quarantine. And hope to keep this mentality going when all of this is finally over.
