Back in December of 2012 when Beck first released Song Reader as just a book of sheet music, I wondered if we'd ever hear the songs performed or recorded exactly as Beck had produced them in his head. While last year brought us a few live performances of the songs by Beck and guests, the collaborations have now been recorded and released as Warby Parker Presents Beck Song Reader and features the likes of Jarvis Cocker, Jack White, Jack Black, Laura Marling, Lord Huron and Juanes. The opening track is by far my favorite and features up and comer (and UCLA Bruin and former LA Weekly intern), Moses Sumney. Catch Moses Aug 16 at the Central Park Summerstage in the NYC and Sept. 26 at the Way Over Yonder Festival at the Santa Monica Pier.
