Sorority Noise releases Brand New cover, sending proceeds of back catalog to ACLU
Sorority Noise’s Cameron Boucher is no stranger to recording and releasing covers, be it under his own name or with one of his bands. Today, Boucher released a cover of Brand New’s “Me vs. Maradona vs. Elvis” from the band’s 2003 album Deja Entendu. It’s the kind of stripped-down cover one would expect from Boucher but, more importantly, it’s also used as a means to get people donating to the ACLU at this most critical time. Through Sunday night both of Boucher’s bands—Sorority Noise and Old Gray—will be sending all proceeds from sales on their Bandcamp pages to the ACLU. In addition to that, Boucher is playing a benefit show along with Jeff Rosenstock, Ben Hopkins of PWR BTTM, and Eskimeaux at The Gateway in Brooklyn with all money going to the Council on American-Islamic Relations with a multi-tiered level of donations. Boucher also made the following statement about why his bands are taking action.
