Video Premiere: The Weak Days — “Told You So” (Paramore Cover)

Posted: by The Editor

The Weak Days, with members across three states, have been somewhat quiet of late. They released a re-recorded version of “Postscript,” a b-side to 2017’s Tight EP, a few months back, and followed it up with “Dependable Cars for Good People” on a compilation for the NAACP in July, but have, besides those singles, been notably inactive. Luckily, they were tapped to play heckdang’s release show recently, where they delivered a stellar rendition of Paramore’s “Told You So.” Today we’re premiering a studio recording of that cover for your listening pleasure. Even though it’s a cover, it’s still got that Weak Days charm we’ve come to love – the band has a sense of personality that comes through on every song, and “Told You So” is no different. 

Watch it below:

You can buy the track on Bandcamp here and all the proceeds will be donated to the Black Trans Travel Fund. The first 40 people to sign up here will get a surprise in the mail from the band.
