MONOWHALES cover Blur's "Song 2"

Canadian rockers MONOWHALES have shared their version of Blur’s iconic track, “Song 2”.

The song is the second cover the Toronto band have released. “When we started off as a band, we had fun covering songs we all knew and loved and ‘Song 2’ was a track we’d frequent and even cover live years ago,” says vocalist Sally Shaar.

“‘Song 2’ is my first memory of being viscerally moved by rock music,” adds guitarist and producer Zach Zanardo.  “I was just a little seven-year-old kid when my brother brought home Big Shiny Tunes 2, and my life was changed forever. Next thing you know I’m telling my French Immersion music teacher that I like ‘La Rock Alternatif’ and watching Much Music regularly. Fast forward almost 25 years and here I am, a big seven-year-old, still in the Alt Rock world. Full circle!”

In 2022, the band released their cover of Nine Inch Nail’s “Hand That Feeds”.
