Rosie Carney releases covers of Radiohead's "Black Star" and "Just"

Carney launched her The Bends cover album last month with her rendition of "Bones", and has today (6 November) released two more songs, "Black Star" and "Just".

Her version of "Black Star" arrives with a self-directed video, which features a cameo from her cat Gin.

Carney's decision to cover Radiohead's The Bends album came after her own recording plans were put on hold due to the coronavirus pandemic. While receiving treatment for mental health issues, Carney recorded a cover of "Fake Plastic Trees", but decided to scrap that to cover the whole of The Bends instead after seeing how many people had covered "Fake Plastic Trees".

She recorded her version of The Bends with help from co-producer JMAC, who remotely contributed violin, viola, cello, drums, horns, woodwinds and vocoder.

Carney's forthcoming cover of The Bends will follow on from her April EP i dreamed i was the night.
