Poppin’ Some Tags With a Violin Cover of “Thrift Shop”
by Perry Michael Simon on January 15, 2013
Macklemore’s “Thrift Shop” covered by a guy on a violin? Why not?:
Well, it IS grandpa’s style, I suppose. (No extra points for saying “this is f’ing awesome” in the comments, by the way)
Peter Lee Johnson’s made a habit over the years of covering pop and hip-hop hits, like Frank Ocean’s “Thinkin About You”:
And he did Kendrick Lamar’s “Poetic Justice”:
And he’s done a lot of others, so if you like violin versions of what’s on your Top 40 station these days, he’s your guy.
