As we prepare for Wilco‘s upcoming XRT 4D Concert, here’s a stream of “Sky Blue Sky” covered by The Hudson Branch.

Following the release of their latest album, World Kid, The Hudson Branch jumped back into the studio and created a refreshing, soul version of Wilco’s “Sky Blue Sky”.

The young Chicago band was inspired to try a new way of making music after watching the Paul Simon documentary “Graceland.” After recording this Wilco cover, Bienert reported that they are looking forward to starting work on a new project of soul-inspired original material.

“We love Wilco and this track is one of their best. Instead of doing a mediocre remake of it – we decided to have some fun and draw on our love of Motown while covering it,” says THB’s vocalist Cobey Bienert.

For more music from The Hudson Branch, head to their bandcamp page where World Kid is now streaming in its entirety.
