During the quarantine I sometimes made videos of myself playing random songs, and just for fun I played a section of Shelter's "Better Way" acoustically. I didn't really think much of it, but then my friend Dave commented on the post saying he always wanted to record a cover of it, and I said, "Well, why don't we do it?" This is what came out from us sending tracks back and forth to each other from California to Toronto. To me this is more a re-imagining than a cover.
