Fly Me To The Moon [Skanatra / Frank Sinatra] From the vault … September 12, 2012 With in the world of of cover bands, there exists the tribute band. Tribute bands, unlike the straight up cover band, only does covers of songs by one artists. Sometimes the tribute bands are just straight up impersonators, but sometimes they put an awesome twist on the original artists and wind up with an awesome gimmick and band name. There’s Mini Kiss, who you might have seen in a Dr. Pepper commercial They’re a little person Kiss Tribute band. There’s Lez Zepplin, a tribute band whose members are all lesbians. There’s the Misfats, a heavyset Misfits knock off. Black Diamond is a great Neil Diamond impersonator, as long as you don’t look at his skin color. There’s MANdona, which has to be a favorite on the drag queen circuit. Today’s cover is by Skanatra, a ska group that you guessed it, covers the Old Blue Eyes in the Ska style. Neat!

Why Try To Change Me Now [Fiona Apple / Frank Sinatra]
