Gordi - 'Grass Is Blue'

Gordi - 'Grass Is Blue'

The brilliant Gordi has released a very special cover of Dolly Parton's 1999 album title-track 'Grass Is Blue', releasing it recently to help Parton fund the Moderna COVID vaccine.

The artist's cover of Parton's classic marks Gordi's first outing since teaming up with Alex Lahey on 'Dino's' back in February, and it arrives with a Triana Hernandez-directed video that was shot on Dja Dja Wurrung Land.

The new cover also goes with her sensational cover of Miley Cyrus’ 'Wrecking Ball' from last year. On Twitter, Gordi wrote of her song choice, “I wanted to cover it because Dolly funded the Moderna vaccine and is an all round queen.”

Gordi further added on her Facebook page, "Recorded in a single day at Phoenix Central Park and produced with Alex Lahey. Mixed by Jon Low, mastered by Greg Calbi / Steve Fallone. We also filmed a video for it, directed by Triana Hernandez, where I play a sad girl with a keyboard. You can watch it / listen to it/ consume it now in all the usual places"

In the cover, Gordi effortlessly and effectively translated it into her own grand and glimmering indie aesthetic, blending the classic folk sounds with the vibrant and haunting style of her last album, 'Out Two Skins'.
