Though they’ve only been around a short while, Sydney outfit Boo Seeka have been gaining some serious traction, largely thanks to a national tour with SAFIA and serious rotation for their single ‘Deception Bay’ all over triple j.
The band recently stopped by the triple j studios to try their hand at a Like A Version cover, turning MØ’s 2014 single ‘Pilgrim’ into a hazy and ethereal dream-pop number that you’ll want to play again and again. Take note, this could be the Sydney duo’s big break.
The band were admittedly taken by surprise when they were invited to perform for Like A Version. “Never in a million years did we think we would get asked to do like a version at all, let alone eight months into the BOO,” the band wrote on Facebook. “Thanks triple J. Legends.”
As we’ve previously mentioned, we’ve been pretty much blown away by the talent on display during this year’s Like A Version series, especially from the glut of talented local bands like Dorsal Fins, who absolutely hit it out of the park with their cover of Kate Ceberano’s ‘Pash’.
We’ve also seen some rousing political statements, an incredible alt-rock mash-up, some ambitious takes on songs by the likes of FKA twigs, Jamie xx, and Fatboy Slim, as well as a raw take on an Australian classic.
