Where Do My Bluebird Fly by The Tallest Man on Earth

Published 24 Feb 2021

So here’s a secret - I actually really like guitar and play (a little) but the tag line is “Hello there, piano fans” not “Hey, here’s a random cover on different instruments every time”.

While I do think this translated well to piano, it was tricky to turn finger-picking into something that didn’t sound like a mess. Took me an extra few days of rehearsing to figure out how to sing steadily over such a rollicking rhythm.

If you haven’t heard the original, go check it out, Kristian’s (The Tallest Man) vocals are reedy and anguished in the best kind of way. And he’s Swedish! Just a weird fact, take it as you like.
