Emily Mure - Sad Songs and Waltzes (2019)

A six-track EP of reimagined cover songs, Sad Songs and Waltzes finds Mure putting her own stamp on material originally performed by Radiohead, The Cranberries, Coldplay, Willie Nelson, Wilco, and The Shins. The majority of those artists launched their careers during the alternative-rock boom of the 1990s, but Mure keeps her own versions folky and acoustic-based, revising each track to suit the unique approach of a musician whose past records have earned her the support not only of New York City's singer/songwriter community, but of the Folk scene at large.

"This is a passion project and something I’ve wanted to do for a long time," says the New York native, who co-produced the EP at Boston's Dimension Sound Studios with Dan Cardinal. "One of my favorite things to do is to reimagine other artists’ songs. These covers are a mix of collaborative studio magic and my very deliberate arranging."
