Carlie Hanson has released a cover of Alice In Chains’ “Nutshell.” You can stream that track below:
Hanson said the following about the cover, which serves as a tribute to late Alice In Chains frontman Layne Staley and late Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain:
“I grew up listening to all kinds of sick-ass music. I remember my mom and sister blasting Alice in Chains on long drives when I was like 10. Not up until recently did I fall down a rabbit hole of everything they have out there. [Alice in Chains’] MTV Unplugged stunned me. I was so blown away and inspired to cover ‘Nutshell’ in remembrance of Layne and Kurt. I want to thank Layne’s sweet momma for allowing this to happen. I’m excited for the world to hear my lil version.”
Staley’s mother Nancy McCallum added:
“It is wonderful to see Layne’s music live on with all generations, and the underlying message in his music continues to have such profound effects. As Layne would say, ‘I would love to be able to hug you all.’”
