Los Angeles-based rock band Starcrawler recently covered Townes Van Zandt and Flying Burrito Brothers during an acoustic set at a recently played live show. The show was the first time Starcrawler had performed since the coronavirus outbreak started last year.
Starcrawler performed for fans at Stories Books and Cafe, which is based on Sunset Boulevard in Los Angeles. Starcrawler performed at the establishment for a book release party on June 17. Stories Books and Cafe held the book release party to celebrate the release of Permanent Damage: Memoir of an Outrageous Girl, which is about the life of Mercy Fontenot.

Two short clips of the live performance were posted by Lyndsey Parker, co-author of the book. The first video that was shared was of Starcrawler performing their Flying Burrito Brothers cover while the second one showcased them performing a Townes Van Zandt cover. While the shared clips were short, it was quickly shown that the duo held great talent. Each cover was performed acoustic and with soul and emotion.
