Watch Punch Brothers Cover The Cars

By Tyler Kane at 6:47 PM on April 3, 2012

Punch Brothers are touring behind their excellent new album Who’s Feeling Young Now? And recently the band stopped by for an episode of The A.V. Club’s ongoing Undercover series where a band picks a track to cover from a list of pre-selected songs. The band picked The Cars’ “Just What I Needed” because, in the band’s words, the song is “awesome, just what we needed.” The video showcases Chris Thile and co.’s more humorous side without sacrificing their great arranging skills.

Punch Brothers: Who's Feeling Young Now?

By Ryan Reed at 3:29 PM on February 14, 2012

If vocalist-mandolinist Chris Thile and his merry band of prog-grass virtuosos decided to record an album crammed with foot-stompin' breakneck noodling, I'd be first in line to carry their cases to the studio and re-string their gear.
