Bon Iver: Blue Tulip (Okkervil River Cover) (Video)

2:17 p.m. · August 26, 2008 · by Andrew Winistorfer

The third installment of Okkervil River’s The Stand Ins series has just premiered, and it finds Justin Vernon aka Bon Iver taking on “Blue Tulip.” Vernon does an acoustic take, and like David Vandervelde last week, makes the song his own. It’s not as impressive (or novel) as the Carl Newman and Will Sheff video, but Vernon pours himself into the track.
Okkervil River’s The Stand Ins is due out on September 9 via Jagjaguwar.
