Feist Covers the Tragically Hip’s "Flamenco": Listen

Earlier this week, the Tragically Hip announced that lead singer Gord Downie has been diagnosed with terminal brain cancer. Feist posted a cover of the Tragically Hip’s “Flamenco” to her Facebook in support of his fight. Hear it below. The cover is accompanied by some words of encouragement: “For Gord. We’ll all be there this summer to see you bring out the new songs with your singular guts and panache…. and the golden oldies that are so golden. All my respect, admiration and love, Leslie.” 

Downie is a founding member of the Tragically Hip, which formed in 1984. The band has won multiple Juno Awards, and been inducted into the Canadian Music Hall of Fame. The band will release a new album, Man Machine Poem, on June 17.
