#LAOnLockExclusive - Madison Cunningham 'Wednesday' [EP]
“Since it’s Wednesday there is no better day to tell you about Grammy-nominated singer-songwriter and guitarist Madison Cunningham’s new covers EP, ‘Wednesday’.
Usually an artist will visually record themselves singing covers and upload them onto social media. However, Madison started recording covers for some of her favorite artists last year as her way to stay inspired both in writing and performing. She explained in a virtual °1824 conference that the hardest part for her with doing covers is not to botch it. She always wants to preserve the sound but also add her own personal sound to it as well.
The EP ‘Wednesday’ features covers of songs from the following:
1. Hold On (Tom Waits cover)
2. The Age of Worry (John Mayer cover)
3. In My Life (The Beatles cover)
4. No Surprises (Radiohead cover)
During quarantine it was mainly her and her boyfriend (Guitar) so she started to do covers to express how she was feeling and to find comfort. She goes to explain that she chose these four songs because they were relevant to what was going on this year with the pandemic and social distancing.
The California native was seen full of excitement not just for her EP release but the excitement of turtleneck season and it being a little brisk of chill in California. As she smiles with inspiration and a love for her craft her advice to others is to never be afraid to bring what you have to the table. Don’t shave your ideas.”
