Tainted Love video from The Jaywalkers

Songs We Like - The JaywalkersThe Jaywalkers continue to impress on the British folk and acoustic music scene with their mix of old time, bluegrass, and traditional string music of both the UK and the United States.

Mike Giverin on mandolin, Lucille Williams on bass, and Jay Bradberry on guitar and fiddle make up the group. They have produced a new music video for Ed Cobb’s Tainted Love, which appears on their upcoming EP, Songs We Like. The song became a hit in the UK in the ’80s after British synth pop duo Soft Cell covered it.

Here’s a look at how The Jaywalkers reworked it.

 

Songs We Like is available now for preorder online, with delivery expected on November 7.
