Covers


Fundraising Naturally

As part of his fundraising for "Naturally", Brad sold cover requests. This is what he has released so far.

Videos with Notes from Brad

  1. Janet Jackson: “Nasty”
    A commissioned cover of Janet Jackson’s “Nasty” for my new album fundraiser that perfectly aligns with my tireless activism raising awareness of nasty boys.
    Thanks to Ben Mullin for his help turning this into a yacht rock jam suitable for any cruise ship, beachfront bar or poolside lounge. We will not rest until the nasty boys understand that it’s time to swap their bad attitudes for silk shirts and cold piña coladas 🍹🏝
  2. Nine Inch Nails: "Head Like a Hole"
    Here’s a commissioned cover from the “Naturally” LP5 fundraiser of Nine Inch Nails’ classic Head Like a Hole. This was a teenage favorite of mine so it was a bit daunting. Don’t think I nailed it but luckily Trent Reznor will never know.
  3. Commodores: “Brick House”
    Another commissioned cover from the “Naturally” LP5 fundraiser of funk classic “Brick House” by the Commodores. This is not a song I would have ever imagined covering due to how white I am, but sometimes you gotta do things you might not expect to get an album made.
  4. Nirvana: "Lithium"
    A cover of "Lithium" by Nirvana for the “Naturally” LP5 fundraiser. Lithium's an iconic song to me so it feels cringey trying to sing it but alas here I am, trading embarrassment for money.
    Thanks to @benjaminmulligram for guitars and bass, @sisc_artwork for the art.

  1. Neil Young: “Mellow My Mind”
    In the sessions for my upcoming album “Naturally” the full band recorded our cover of Neil Young’s song “Mellow My Mind”. We’ve been playing it at shows for a long time so it was nice to finally get a recording of it. It’s a beautiful song about wanting a simpler life and/or wanting to get very high. All glory to Neil Young!
