Best Cover Videos of the Week

We want to encourage Gigmor members to upload all sorts of videos. Whether it’s videos of you and your buddies jamming in your own home, a recording of your band playing a gig, an official music video, or even just you riffing out in front of your laptop camera. Gigmor wants to see what you’ve got! Today we’re releasing a list of our favorite users that make us say “Wow that was a hell of a cover!” Keep uploading videos and maybe you’ll be featured on our next list.

 

First, we have Juan Guajardo-Soberón, a multi-talented musician from Mission, TX. Juan has a ton of covers to choose from but the one that stood out was his drum cover of Green Day’s “Jesus of Suburbia.” Obviously this one is a little long (Green Day and their Damned Rock Opera Ballads…) but stick through it–this kid has skills.

 

 

Second, we have Trevor Robinson, a classically trained bassist from Dallas, TX. Trevor does a looping rendition of MGMT’s hit “Kids.” This is really impressive, as it’s all in one take. Check out Trevor’s other covers and originals on his Gigmor page.

 

 

Lastly, we have Paul Sullivan, better known to the music world as Mixed Media. Paul loves playing 70s and 80s classics down in Tampa and today we have a video that seriously showcases his talents. Paul Sullivan performs a massive medley of “Brown Eyed Girl,” “Dancing In The Moonlight,” “The Way,” and “Comfortably Numb.” Paul loves to play his covers, and it’s pretty apparent after crushing these four. Make sure you check out his Mixed Media page on Gigmor.

Gigmor’s Favorite Videos of the Month

One of our favorite things about Gigmor is that it gives fans a digestible visual aesthetic that lets anyone see the complete layout of all their favorite Gigmor artist’s work. This means users can access music (obviously), level of expertise, show dates, who their fans are, and much much more all from their artist profile. We want our users to have one complete visualization for each of the artist’s profiles.

One trend we have noticed recently is bands and artists uploading their live acts and music videos to their profiles. Let’s peep at a few of the best videos on Gigmor as of today, keep uploading people and maybe you’ll be featured next time. These videos stood out not just because we liked the tune, but because of the energy and passion the artists show in that performance. Make sure to shoot these artists a follow after watching their vids! Hope you enjoy.
