Fontaines D.C. have shared their cover of Nick Drake’s “’Cello Song.” It appears on a forthcoming covers compilation, The Endless Coloured Ways: The Songs of Nick Drake, which is out July 7 via Chrysalis. The collection features covers from Feist, Liz Phair, Let’s Eat Grandma, Philip Selway of Radiohead, Skullcrusher, Gia Margaret, Christian Lee Hutson, and more. The compilation was put together by Chrysalis CEO Jeremy Lascelles and Nick Drake Estate manager Cally Callomon. Find the tracklist below. Also below, see 7″ singles featuring songs from the album.
“Nick Drake was not that concerned with promoting himself as an artist, but I think he would have been overjoyed to hear his art revisited and newly promoted by so many vibrant and talented artists,” Callomon said in a statement. “Jeremy and I also felt it crucial that the album should flow, as a cohesive listening experience, as opposed to a gallery of separate exhibits. Whether we have succeeded in these two ambitions, only the listener can tell. We are honored and so grateful to all our friends, old and new, who took part in the making of this beautiful set.”
