After the release of her album The Moon & Stars: Prescriptions For Dreamers in March 2021, Valerie June hit the road for a lengthy North American tour. Today, the songwriter and multi-instrumentalist has shared her wonderful cover (and accompanying performance video) of Mazzy Star’s “Fade into You.”

The emotional honesty and deeply meditative spirit that the Memphis-born artist consistently delivers in all of her original work is certainly not lost in this cover. Valerie takes the immediacy that Hope Sandoval (Mazzy Star’s lead singer) originally brought to the track and molds it into something entirely her own.

Valerie June’s album The Moon and Stars: Prescriptions For Dreamers was Produced by June and Jack Splash, and the follow-up to her 2013 album Pushin’ Against A Stone, The Order of Time — a 2017 effort that earned the admiration of Bob Dylan and landed on best-of-the-year lists — The Moon and Stars: Prescriptions For Dreamers is a landmark work for the Memphis-born, Brooklyn-based auteur. The recently released special digital Deluxe Edition features 23 tracks in all: The Moon and Stars’ 14 original tracks, six reimagined, acoustic versions plus three brand-new covers that align with the album’s theme: Nick Drake’s “Pink Moon,” John Lennon’s “Imagine” and Stephen Foster’s “Beautiful Dreamer.”
