Caroline Polachek & Lauren Auder – “Some Small Hope” (Virginia Astley Cover)
Caroline Polachek has been quite the busy bee these past few weeks, covering the Corrs and getting remixed by Toro Y Moi and winterproofing her Pang hit as “So Cold You’re Hurting My Feelings.” And today she’s released a cover of “Some Small Hope” with the London musician Lauren Auder.
“Some Small Hope” is from Virginia Astley’s 1986 album Hope In A Darkened Heart, which was produced by Ryuichi Sakamoto; the original features vocals from David Sylvian. Polachek and Auder’s rendition was produced by Danny L Harle.
Proceeds from the track will be split between Shelter Partnership Los Angeles, Mermaids UK, and Shelter UK. Check it out below.
