Dwayne Gretzky – S.O.S. [Music Video]

A band who I seem to keep missing out.
Today, Dwayne Gretzy shared the video for their lead single of the ABBA cover, “S.O.S.”
Their reimagining of the classic song by ABBA is taken from their self-titled debut album dropping on August 23, 2019.
I think it is abit sacrilegious to cover a band who makes people smile and enjoy their music.
They own spin is not the disco-pop we are thinking but more a catchy indie pop alternative tune.
Check out the video.
