Sisters With Venue (Nechama Brodie, Danielle Bowler and Black Porcelain) rehearsing a tribute cover to TLC's epic track – Johannesburg, September 20115. (PS: Iman Rapetti in the big dark shades is not part of SWV :) This photo was taken just after our interview with her on PowerFM. We did invite her to come and sing with us, because she has an amazing voice).  

Diggin On You

A cover of Leonard Cohen's "Hallelujah", recorded at home in October 2010.

Nechama Brodie's Album

hallelujah cover October 2010

I preferred playing this at gigs – Hallelujah, so simple, was also so hard to get perfect, or even right enough. This was trickier, but it was lifted by switching it from Cohen's deep timbre to my higher pitch...

Nechama's Covers

Call Your GF cover

Cover of the Rod Stewart cover of the Tim Hardin song. 

** Not the Adele song. :)

someone like you cover

A quick cover of a long-time favourite song of mine, originally sung by the incredible Linda Thompson (and also later covered by Maria McKee). I actually quite like it on piano, although the original was guitar... Listen to all of them and decide for yourself.

has he got a friend for me cover

I wrote this song about two years back, and performed it a few times at the legendary late Andy McGibbon's Acoustic Evenings. But I haven't recorded a version I liked enough to post (long story about recording with a click, timing, and so on). But this mostly works.

Hope and Dreams

trippy cover of mazzy star's amazing track. lots of echoes for fun.

Fade Into You Cover

A cover to keep you company. Be safe and sane all.

Down Where The Drunkards Roll Cover

This is not a perfect take (many fumbles), and yet it is also perfect. No vocal effects (some reverb okay okay but a tiny amount). This is my voice and it sounds like it does in my living room where this was recorded with my cat as audience. 

This is heartfelt, and a lovely song to sing. Thank you Bob Marley. And thank you Gus Silber for suggesting it. 

Please share, please care, please be kind to each other.
