STRAWBERRY GIRLS Covered THE WEEKND’s “Starboy”

by Ryan Minic | Sep 29, 2016

Remember when Strawberry Girls covered Kendrick Lamar? How rad was that? Well the guys are back at it with a new rendition — and this time they’ve taken on The Weeknd.

The band did a cover of The Weeknd’s new single “Starboy.” It’s the title track of his forthcoming third studio album and features Daft Punk.

This should get you in the mood for Strawberry Girls’ run of dates down the West Coast. They’ll be joining Kurt Travis on the first few shows of The Esque Records tour this week alongside Amarionette and Lemix J Buckley.

They’ll be out supporting their latest album, American Graffiti.
