Mary Lattimore covers Bill Fay's "Love Is The Tune"

14 March 2022, 16:21 | Written by Cerys Kenneally

LA-based harpist Mary Lattimore has covered Bill Fay's "Love Is The Tune", and it arrives alongside a release date for Still Some Light: Part 2.

Lattimore's harp cover of "Love Is The Tune" comes after Julia Jacklin's February cover of "Just To Be A Part", and is accompanied by a release date for Dead Oceans' Still Some Light: Part 2 compilation.

"My friend Max introduced me to Bill Fay's records when we worked in a record store together in Philly over a decade ago," Lattimore says. "His songs have kept me company on many long drives and have soundtracked lots of beautiful, quiet, kind of searching moments in my life. They have such a truth and observational solitude in them. I'm honoured to be able to cover a song on the harp in tribute to him."

Lattimore's cover is the latest from Dead Oceans' limited edition 7" singles series, which has also seen Kevin Morby cover "I Hear You Calling" and Steve Gunn cover "Dust Filled Room".

Mary Lattimore's cover of "Love Is The Tune" is out now. Bill Fay's Still Some Light: Part 2 compilation will arrive via Dead Oceans on 6 May.
