Cover Alert | moe. Debuts 12 Covers Including Sledgehammer

Last night moe. guitarist Chuck Garvey referenced all the work the band had put into their guest-filled two-night stand to celebrate the 25th Anniversary of iconic NYC nightclub The Wetlands Preserve at The Capitol Theatre by stating, “we haven’t done this much homework since college.” Over the course of the two nights, moe. wound up debuting a whopping 12 songs including a horn-driven cover of Peter Gabriel’s “Sledgehammer.”

For “Sledgehammer,” moe. was joined by Jen Durkin and Fuzz of Deep Banana Blackout as well as the Conehead Buddha horns. Fuzz handled lead vocals on the cover. Watch LazyLightning’s fan-shot video of “Sledgehammer”:
