Covers vs Originals, which is right for your band?
Channel: Midnight Mayday
Date: 2024-03-04

Trying to decide if you should start a cover (or tribute) band or original band? We examine the pros and cons for both from the perspective of young/older musician, new to your instrument, new to your band and whether you are a more serious professional or weekend warrior. What did we miss? What do you suggest? Leave a comment to let us know.

We also have a brief look at the success and awesomeness of one of Luke's favorite bands right now. Check out their new video here: https://youtu.be/5IS53CZjT6o?si=b8344EfSKQ0IoOA6
