Soccer Mommy has just released a perfect cover of Taylor Swift‘s ‘I’m Only Me When I’m With You’, taken from her 2006 self-titled debut album.
The track will appear on ‘Karaoke Night’ a new covers EP from Soccer Mommy which also features reinterpretations of songs by R.E.M., Sheryl Crow, Slowdive and Pavement.
The sludgy version of this early Swift classic is an instant winner from us – and has us longing for Taylor’s grunge era.
“I really wanted to cover this song because it’s one of my favourites from Taylor’s first album,” Sophie Allison aka Soccer Mommy said, of the release. “I listened to that record so much when I was a kid and I think it had a lot of influence on me then.”
‘Karaoke Night’ will be released on September 22 via Loma Vista. The tracklist is below.
- Here
- Soak Up The Sun
- Dagger
- I’m Only Me When I’m With You
- Losing My Religion
Last year, Soccer Mommy released her debut album ‘Sometimes Never’ which made our top albums of 2022. Of the release, we said: “Never one to shy away from the shadows, Soccer Mommy’s music provided a comfort to those of us ruminating over life’s big questions”.
Starting September 21, Soccer Mommy will be supporting The National on the UK and Ireland leg of their tour.
