Mike Hadreas says he recorded the “deathbed-y” take on the disco classic for a commercial pitch
Perfume Genius’ Mike Hadreas shared a cover of Gloria Gaynor’s disco classic “I Will Survive,” which he says he recorded at home for a commercial pitch. Check it out below.
Hadreas shared the cover through his newsletter, writing, “I suppose the cover is a little deathbed-y, I was very serious that day, but i like how it turned out. In particular the last moment… i might stretch that in to something new.”
After releasing IMMEDIATELY Remixes in March, Hadreas covered Richard Youngs’ “A Fullness of Light in Your Soul” with the Hypnotic Brass Ensemble in June. He’ll tour the western half of the United States this fall.
