Amber Mark has released a new cover of Nirvana’s “Heart-Shaped Box.” She self-produced and recorded the cover at her New York home. Watch her self-made video below.
“For me, making music in the COVID-19 quarantine has probably been the only positive to come out of a tragedy like this,” Amber Mark said in a press release. “All the pressure I normally feel when working on music is lifted. And I just have this ‘f**k it’ mentality. People get to really see you in your most bare state and vice versa. That’s the beauty in the music I’m making right now. It’s just me whipping up whatever I’m feeling. Keeping it minimal has been the key mentality for me and just having fun with it. I used to stress so much about visuals and the message I was sending with my music. I’ve learned a lot about myself already during the quarantine. And hope to keep this mentality going when all of this is finally over.”
