Dave Grohl of Foo Fighters and producer Greg Kurstin covered Elastica for the latest installment in their The Hanukkah Sessions video series. For the clip, the duo tackled the UK band’s 1995 song, “Connection.”
The tune appears on Elastica’s 1995 self-titled album. “From Brit Milot to Britpop…here’s one of the coolest tracks from the 90’s…sung by the very cool…and Jewish…Justine Frischmann…ELASTICA!” Reads a note accompanying the video.
The Hanukkah Sessions sees Grohl and Kurstin releasing a video cover from a famous Jewish artist for each night of Hanukkah, which runs through Friday, December 18. For Elastica’s “Connection,” Dave Grohl handles drums and vocals while Kurstin mans the synth station.
