Soccer Mommy Performs a Cover of Bruce Springsteen’s “I’m On Fire”

Soccer Mommy‘s debut album Clean, which was released earlier this year, is one of the best albums of the year so far. The 21-year-old Nashville star announces she’s dropping a new 7-inch single. The single’s A-Side is a newly reworked version of “Henry,” a song that originally appeared on Soccer Mommy’s 2016 collection For Young Hearts on Orchid Tapes. The B-Side is a cover of Bruce Springsteen’s “I’m On Fire.”

“I wanted to make a version of ‘I’m On Fire’ that connected with the sadness of the song,” she explains. “I think that doing a more stripped-down version allowed me to make something that feels emotionally raw.”

The 7-inch is out Oct. 5 via Fat Possum. Stream the cover above.
