Beverly Glenn-Copeland has shared a new song from his upcoming record Keyboard Fantasies Reimagined — "Ever New (Re-Worked by Bon Iver and Flock of Dimes)" features, as the name suggests, Bon Iver's Justin Vernon and Flock of Dimes' Jenn Wasner, laying some major vocal harmonies over a spectral rendition of Glenn-Copeland's 1986 original.
There's an almost Low-esque quality to the duo's voices here, and they manage to make the already-beautiful song even softer and more gentle.
About hers and Vernon's version of "Ever New," Wasner said:
It was an honour to work with Justin (and many other talented folks!) on this re-imagining of "Ever New" for Transgressive's Keyboard Fantasies Reimagined. I'll never forget the first time I heard Glenn's version of this song—it instantly felt deeply familiar, strikingly beautiful, simple and pure. Over the years I have returned to it repeatedly in moments when I need to be soothed, and it always acts as an anchor amidst life's uncertainties. "Ever New" is a timeless classic, and it's an honour to have played a small part in ensuring its continued appreciation by many generations to come.
So far we've heard five of the record's eight tracks — this version of "Ever New" follows previously released covers from Ana Roxanne, Blood Orange, Kelsey Lu, and Jeremy Dutcher.
Keyboard Fantasies Reimagined is arriving December 10 on Transgressive.
