The last year-plus has been incredibly fortuitous for The National, with the band gaining massive popularity following the release of their Best Album of 2013, Trouble Will Find Me, and receiving rapturous crowds on their everlasting tour in support of that album (including at our Best Concert of 2013).  Unfortunately, The National news has recently dwindled down to intermittent glimpses and semaphores from afar.

So we were very happy today to hear Strand of Oaks (and its leader, singer-songwriter Timothy Showalter), had smartly covered The National’s Pink Rabbits, one of our favorite songs off of Trouble Will Find MeStrand of Oaks recently released the heavy new album HEAL to critical acclaim, and we’re just beginning to catch up with the group. We’ll have more about them later.

In the meantime, check out below Strand of Oaks’ synth-laden, heartfelt cover of Pink Rabbits.  We love it.
