Cover Stories is an idea that’s been banging around in my head for years. But I was always too afraid to actually make something of it.

Cover Stories tells the saga of childhood bands told by now-adults. These adults then take an active part in covering one of those childhood songs with the help of a producer and professional musicians — bringing new life to an old dream. The series will take people back to the time in their lives when they felt free to be creative in any way they wanted.

In order to FREE THE IDEA, Jeff Möehle and I decided to create a bit of a pilot episode. In this podcast we re-imagine a song we first penned and performed when we were 8 years old: “Sunlight Makes Me Mellow.”
