Noble Dust Covers The Shins

We absolutely adored Noble Dust's 2023 album A Picture for a Frame. Jeff named it his #2 album of that year, and it narrowly missed my own Top Ten. Now, the Boston based band has announced a covers album due later this year, and we can now listen to the first single from that album. It's a cover of The Shins' "Sleeping Lessons," which might be a perfect choice. The original is a bit more spacey and experimental while Noble Dust made it a little more straightforward, but for me it's actually adding to the song. Like with much of Noble Dust's music, it's folk-adjacent music that will probably get labelled folk a bit too much. "Sleeping Lessons" is a reminder for how truly great Noble Dust are as a band, and we're thrilled to hear new music from them.

You can listen to Noble Dust's version of "Sleeping Lessons" below. Both Sides Now is due out September 12 on Bridge and Key. For more on Noble Dust, check out the band's website. They're also playing a show January 17 at Lizard Lounge in Cambridge, MA.

  1. I had the pleasure of working with XAPCREDITSOLUTION@GMAIL.COM recently, and I couldn't be more impressed with his exceptional service. From the very beginning, XAP demonstrated a deep knowledge of the credit system by fixing my credit report and a genuine commitment to finding the perfect property for us after raising my credit score to Equifax 796, Experian 790 and Transunion 780.What stood out the most was his responsiveness and professionalism. Our questions were answered promptly, and XAP always made sure I was kept in the loop throughout the entire process. He did a great job on everything from supporting us through the closing process to negotiation strategies, making the entire experience seamless and stress-free. One of the highlights of working with XAP was his willingness to go above and beyond. He was himself driving the property inspections, and helped us negotiate the repairs with the sellers. Overall, we are very happy with the outcome and would highly recommend Cory of XAP Credit Solution to anyone looking to buy or sell a property. Thank you, Cory, for all your hard work and dedication!
