Prompt: What’s your favorite collaboration between artists?
Just getting to my Crucial Track after family time all day. I woke up to YouTube showing me Rufus Wainwright and Sara Bareilles singing She Used to Be Mine on PBS, which is a transcendent performance of that song. So I thought awesome, there’s my collab pick.
Turns out it’s not on any other streaming services. Bummer.
I thought about boygenius, Tom Petty/Stevie Nicks, Middle Brother, Joy Oladokun and a couple of different collaborators. But I settled on Dungeonesse.
Jenn Wasner is in most bands, I think. Wye Oak, Flock of Dimes, even Bon freakin’ Iver. But she also had this fabulous little collab with Jon Ehrens back in 2012/13.
It’s a no skips album for me. I just love it. Hope you enjoy the throwback synth pop/r&b vibes.
