Mercy Weiss – Brand New Key
Mercy Weiss - Brand New Key
Release Date: Out Now
This cover of the 1970s Melanie classic
‘Brand New Key’ will resonate with a lot of people and bring a lot of memories
back but there will also be a slice of society, myself included, that is reminded
of the version of this song sung by the Wurzels and focused more on Combine
Harvesters than Rollerskates. Wherever this track takes you, Mercy Weiss’
version is a downtempo, lo-fi delight with some oh so simple keys, a laconic
beat and the kind of vocals that will soothe the most savage of hangovers. The
song is given a whole new energy and persona by this version and that’s all you
can hope for in a cover version. So, mission accomplished.
