Respect is due: Bluebirds Are Blue, et al, to get the cover treatment
Mike_Diver by Mike Diver June 7th, 2006

UK indie label Signature Tune has announced initial details of a forthcoming covers album, focusing on the work of ace-like-your-face Brit rockers Cable.

"Under-appreciated purveyors of fine tunes" is how the label describes the band still best remembered for contributing a song to a Sprite ad. Massive fans of the band, the brains behind the label are assembling a cast of performers. Already on board for the project are The Killerest Expression, Get Cape. Wear Cape. Fly, Tom Vek and, rather interestingly, The League of International Super Best Friends. That's the 'supergroup' containing members of Bloc Party (Gordy) and yourcodenameis:milo (Justin).

More details when we get 'em.
