Foxygen cover Jessica Pratt’s “On Your Own Love Again”

Foxygen have released their cover of Jessica Pratt’s “On Your Own Love Again” from her album that shares the same name. “While her version is acoustic, we decided to employ Phil Spector’s Wall of Sound technique to make the song sound great coming out of the speakers at your next summer barbecue,” the band said in a statement. Listen below. The cover is one of the ten tracks on Amazon Music’s Songs of Summer playlist, which also includes new songs from Twin Peaks, EMA, and Temples.
