Wilco

"Cut Your Hair" (Pavement cover) (live video)

Back in 2013, Wilco covered Pavement's indie rock classic "Cut Your Hair" at their Solid Sound Festival. Fan-captured footage of the performance previously made its way onto the internet, and now professionally-filmed footage has emerged thanks to the documentary Every Other Year.

This rendition is faithful to the crunchy slacker-rock vibe of Pavement's original version from 1994's Crooked Rain, Crooked Rain. The results recall some of Wilco's own original material — "Heavy Metal Drummer," for example — with a little more distorted grit.

Check out the cover below. The clip begins with a minute of behind-the-scenes footage.

Every Other Year is available now through dBpm Records.
