Chappell Roan Covers Heart

Midway through her set at the Primavera Sound festival in Barcelona, Spain, Chappell Roan performed a cover of a Heart song that is clearly close to her… well, you get the idea.

After the final notes of “Hot to Go” rang out, the chugging guitar and harmonics that are the instantly recognizably opening to Heart’s “Barracuda,” filled the air. Roan and her band kept close to the original and, given her vocal strengths, hitting some of those Ann Wilson notes did not prove to be any kind of problem.

The Primavera Sound Festival has been running since 2001 and is sometimes referred to as the Coachella of Europe. Roan was the headliner at this year’s festival. Roan is currently on her “Visions of Damsels and Other Dangerous Things” tour, which had kicked off last month in Warsaw. The tour will resume in Europe on August 6th in Oslo, Norway.
