Sarah Jarosz shared covers from Billie Eilish and U2. The acclaimed singer-songwriter tackled Eilish’s “my future” as well as U2’s “I Still Haven’t Found What I’m Looking For.”
“I Still Haven’t Found What I’m Looking For” appears on U2’s landmark 1987 album, Joshua Tree. Eilish released “my future” as a single in 2020.
The aforementioned songs weren’t the only tunes Sarah recorded. The singer-songwriter took to social media to detail her 2020 covers project. Read her words below:
Towards the end of July 2020, when the reality set in that musicians would likely be some of the last people to get back to work, I needed to do something to cheer myself up. So, on a bit of a whim, I decided to start learning one cover song a week, record it, make a video, and put it up on my Instagram and Youtube pages. Nothing fancy — one mic and GarageBand on my laptop. I wound up doing 10 songs which carried me all the way to the beginning of October. It really proved to be a way for me to stay inspired and connected with my fans at a time when we couldn’t see each other in person. Thinking back on how much joy those covers brought me, and in light of the fact that we still can’t gather together for live music, I’ve decided to release my recordings of “I Still Haven’t Found What I’m Looking For” by U2 and “my future” by Billie Eilish into the world as a little gift to my fans.
