TASHAKI MIYAKI COVERS THE REPLACEMENTS & THE FLAMINGOS FOR AQUARIUM DRUNKARD'S THE LAGNIAPPE SESSIONS   Listen to Both Tracks Here Courtesy of Aquarium Drunkard "enchanting black-and-white texture blending traditions of Japanese minimalism and the American frontier. It's all so pretty I'm afraid saying anything else might diminish it." - The FADER

LA duo Tashaki Miyaki is pleased to announce two covers they recorded for acclaimed Los Angeles tastemaker, Aquarium Drunkard. AD invites artists to cut exclusive covers of their favorite artists/songs, these are known as the Lagniappe Sessions. Tashaki Miyaki chose The Replacements as their first artist to cover, with a beautifully-dense recording of "Unsatisfied," cementing their version with wistful slide guitar. Next the band tackled a '50s doo-wop classic, "I Only Have Eyes for You," originally recorded by The Flamingos.  Listen to both tracks here courtesy of Aquarium Drunkard. Tashaki Miyaki is finishing up their debut LP to be released in 2013.
