Philadelphia based musician Jeffrey Alexander recorded three covers for Aquarium Drunkard's The Lagniappe Sessions: The Fall's Repetition with his band Dire Wolves (MP3), Top Drawers's Song Of A Sinner (MP3) and International Harvester's Sommarlåten with his band The Heavy Lidders (MP3). About the latter:
For this live cover, recorded at Milwaukee Psych Fest VIII on May 6, 2023, I’m playing electric guitar (left), Drew Gardner (of Elkhorn) is playing guitar (right), Jesse Sheppard (also of Elkhorn) is on bass, and Scott Verrastro (from Kohoutek) plays drums. We had never performed this before (or since)—we simply chatted about it over a group text. I was lucky enough to play a few shows with Träd Gräs in 2003, in the US and Europe as well, and I tried to remember what Torbjorn always said: “fuck it, don’t think, just let your freak flag fly.” For this boot, the soundboard feed was recorded by Richard Hayes and I mixed it with an audience recording that I made on a handheld sitting on the front of the stage.
