Australian born Gordi is hitting the US thanks to famed indie label Jagjaguwar, who helped launch the careers of notable indie acts Bon Iver, S. Carey, and Sharon Van Etten. With her introduction to the masses, what better way than to cover a beautifully written song by another Aussie who is making waves in the industry and one of the best new talents around in Courtney Barnett? Not only cover it, but truly transform it and make it your own? Rumor has it Gordi will release her first EP in a few months, giving us a taste of her songwriting skills and sound, which is somewhere caught in the crossfire between Imogen Heap and Katie Herzig, with a vigor that reminds me of Sia's early work. Enjoy this beautiful cover, and keep an eye out for some indie goodness in the coming months from this young belle.
