I moved to CA (from the Boston area) in 2015 and had this song on my playlist, now 2 years later I decided to do a cover of it. Moving to CA actually made it hard for me to play/perform music because of my lack of equipment and living situations. While I solved those two issues I still didn't have a platform to share or collaborate on, so I started toying around with social media for this reason. I'm happy to share this cover here as a way to network with other musicians. I'll be looking around the forums here more and reaching out, thanks!

Very nice cover. You made it your own without destroying the vibe of the original.

I liked it. Liked your dad's "Star Spangled Banner" as well.

good job there,
both in capturing a good vocal performance,
and in mixing the voice with the acoustic bleedthru..

Very nice live recording, not easy to get a balance like that right. Enjoyed the listen.

Eph221, I'm just far enough south where rent isn't quite as bad but I can drive up to go to concerts in SF if needed! 
 
Batsbrew and biodiode, thanks for commenting on the recording quality, I spent a good amount of time doing test runs to capture a decent mic placement, then spent a good amount of time mixing the mic with the direct signal to find a sweet spot.
