Today, GRAMMY-winning multi-instrumentalist Nate Mercereau has released Excellent Traveler, an innovative solo album on Third Man Records. As a creative artist at the forefront of modern sonic expression, Mercereau used a unique approach to make music with guitar-controlled samples of special sounds–from the hangers backstage at National Sawdust to the studio sessions with artists like André 3000, Shabaka Hutchings, Kamasi Washington, and others, plus his concerts at home with 3-year-old daughter Juniper.

Maybe it’s just me, but I think we all have a favorite cover of one of our favorite songs. In fact, there are a few covers I actually prefer over the originals—though I won’t mention any titles.

And I can confidently say I loved all ten of these tracks.
