Jess Cornelius Releases Stunning Cover of an Eagles Song

0 Comments

For a minute now we’ve shown appreciation for the music of Los Angeles’ Jess Cornelius. The singer songwriter has an acute ability to cut through the normal BS in music and just get to the heart of what she’s singing about. With a melodic approach and heartfelt intuition, her full length Distance proved she was an upcoming force. Now the singer songwriter has revealed a new cover of The Eagles song “I Can’t Tell You Why” and it’s pretty glorious.

The beauty here is that Cornelius throws away the conventional and delivers her own rendition of the song. Gritty guitar replaces the swaying sounds of the original while Cornelius employs a drum machine as well as live drums to heighten the intensity. While the pacing is similar the overall sound is completely different. This approach makes for a new way to hear the song while keeping its toes in the original intent of the song. It’s a gut wrenching and emotionally heavy way to experience the tenderness of the song while holding your ears throughout.

The cover can be streamed above or wherever you stream music. Distance is available for physical purchase directly from Loantaka Records or in all digital outlets.
