My, my, my, The Belair Lip Bombs brought pure joy to the Like A Version studio with their cover of The 1975’s ‘Happiness’.<\/p>\n
Making their Like A Version debut, the Frankston four piece put their own warm indie spin on the UK band’s 2022 hit, making their mark on the beloved track.<\/p>\n
“It was the first single that came out of their latest record and I just listened to it for like two years straight,” vocalist Maisie Everett said.<\/p>\n
“I still do.”<\/p>\n
For their cover, The Belair Lip Bombs worked through a few options before landing on The 1975, purely because it suited Maisie’s vocal range.<\/p>\n
“We were really trying to find ones that Maisie felt comfortable singing,” drummer Daniel ‘Dev’ Devlin said.<\/p>\n
“I think a lot of The 1975 songs fit your vocal style quite well.”<\/p>\n
They did have to change a couple of things for their cover, like transposing the saxophone solo into an impressive guitar solo, unleashed by Maisie.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Keeping it simple was the key, and that unlocked the door to this stunning debut Like A Version.<\/p>\n
