Sand - The Best Friends With Wolves Club
0:00
Originally written and recorded by Canadian lo-fi darlings Eric's Trip, this track was later covered (and made a bit more known) by American lo-fi darlings The Microphones. The next crack at getting this brilliant tune stuck in a few more heads comes back from the motherland. The Canadian taking the crack this time around is our friendly friend, The Best Friends With Wolves Club. And the man behind TBFWWC is called Eric. So, the circle is complete.
“My friend Bart Pierson turned me onto The Microphones/Mount Eerie a few years back and they've always inspired my writing so much as well as the way I record things. Sand is originally an Eric's Trip song and then covered by The Microphones, and it's one of my favourites. I've always thought it would be really cool to cover this song, and then a few days ago it was a really beautiful day in Toronto and this song came on my iTunes and I started playing along with it on the ukulele..and a few hours later the entire thing was recorded in TBFWWC fashion. I recorded the entire thing with the porch door open and the sun shining into the apartment. It was nice seeing some light during the lamest month of the year.”
