Best Coast to be featured in new Fleetwood Mac Tribute Album; playing Union Transfer in July
Direct Current has announced that there will be a tribute album to Fleetwood Mac to be released on August 14th. The album was produced by Randall Poster, a music supervisor and producer who did the Buddy Holly tribute album last year.
Direct Current said:
Another difference with the tribute album is that each of the contributing artists had complete independent control over the style and vision for their songs. The result is a collection of often radically reworked versions of well-known (and some more obscure) Fleetwood Mac songs.

Crystal Ark – Tusk
Best Coast – Rhiannon
New Pornographes – Think About Me
