Counting Crows are releasing a new album on April 10th, but fans looking for new new material will have to wait- the new album, Underwater Sunshine (or what we did on our summer vacation), is entirely an album of covers. A band notorious for covering others, including Adam Duritz's late night covers session from last February, this album is a natural extension of their live shows and their propensity for intertwining bits of others' songs into their own. While we await Underwater Sunshine (track list below) here are some Counting Crows covers to whet your appetite.
