The British trio add distorted guitars and booming drums to. Since then, Big Joanie have toured with Sleater-Kinney and Parquet Courts and have opened for the likes of Bikini Kill and The Raincoats, so it’s no wonder that they caught the ear of White and his label. Big Joanie offer a fuzzy post-punk facelift to Solange's 'Cranes in the Sky' for a new single, out August 14 via Third Man Records. Today’s cover is the first new material that we’ve heard from the Black feminist trio since its 2018 debut full-length, Sistahs, which was released via Thurston Moore’s publishing company Ecstatic Peace Library. The band translate the beautiful harmonies into their Ronnettes-esque proto-punk delivery and then rip a two-minute solo during its final third that breathes a whole new life into the song while also maintaining the integrity of the original. “Cranes in the Sky” is a track from Solange’s clean and crisp 2016 record A Seat at the Table, and Big Joanie flip it into a crunchy, bass-driven, downright noisy version that’s truly amazing. The track is one-half of a 7-inch that they’re putting out next week through Jack White’s Third Man Records. Also discover the danceability, energy, liveness, instrumentalness, happiness and more musical. Solange’s Cranes in the Sky was a triumph of melancholia, but Big Joanie’s heavy, fuzzy rendition of the tune makes the original sound positively upbeat by comparison.
