Uncovering the power of a good cover

Wikipedia Commons

This interview originally aired on "In the Moment" on SDPB Radio.

A cover is where one artist performs another artist's song while putting a new spin on it. That new spin is what David Hersrud says makes a good cover.

We learn more about the case for and against covers with Hersrud and SDPB's Lori Walsh.

Hersrud has seven years of experience working in the music industry. He lives in Sturgis.

Lori Walsh is the host and senior producer of "In the Moment."
