Samia covers The Eagles and The Magnetic Fields for Valentine's Day
Samia has shared two covers of songs by The Eagles and The Magnetic Fields to celebrate Valentine's Day.
Samia's covers of The Eagles' "Desperado" and The Magnetic Fields' "Born on a Train" mark her first releases since last summer's Scout EP.
Discussing the covers, Samia said, "These two songs feel like a conversation; they’re almost two totally opposite perspectives. I definitely relate more to the sentiment of "Desperado" but wanted to give a voice to both sides. "Born on a Train" is one of my favorite songs ever and my friend Ned soundchecks with it every night on our tour so we always end up singing it together. Two other members of my band, Sam and Boone, played on the tracks and Caleb’s production is so honest and intimate; these songs feel special because I worked on them with my friends!!"
