Susanna Hoffs and Matthew Sweet


Under The Covers: Vol. 2
(Shout Factory)

Matthew Sweet and Susanna Hoffs delighted rock and pop fans when they teamed up as Sid n Susie to record an album’s worth of ’60s classics called Under the Covers Vol. 1. In the three years since, people have continued to ask us when Vol. 2 will come out and what it’ll contain. Well, the wait is over: Under the Covers Vol. 2

finds our heroes moving forward through rock’s back pages to take on a other ’nother decade: the ’70s.

 

From the power-pop like The Raspberries and Big Star to the soft-rock of Carly Simon and Bread, and from the classic-rock of John Lennon and Derek and the Dominos to the prog-rock of Yes, Sid n Susie offer a pretty thorough survey of the state of rock, just before the Sex Pistols.
