A Camp

Jul 14, 2009 Dinosaur Jr. By Michele Yamamoto

Playboy—that enterprise we all know and love—has announced the creation of a new video series for Playboy.com. For ten months, a new video will be unveiled on the second Tuesday in what has been dubbed the Uncovered series. And the relevance of that title is twofold. Selected artists will be recorded paying tribute to their favorite artists in legendary music venues and bars. Presented by Southern Comfort, Dinosaur Jr. is the first in line with their cover of The Cure’s “Just Like Heaven,” which was featured today.

Though the complete lineup will be made available August 1st, several artists have already been unveiled including members of The Dears, Black Lips, A Camp (Nina Persson of The Cardigans), and Drive-By Truckers.

Here’s what’s been announced (not in any order):

A Camp: “Psycho” by Leon Payne

Murray Lightburn (The Dears): “Doctor Blind” by Emily Haines (Metric)

Dinosaur Jr.: “Just Like Heaven” by The Cure

Patterson Hood (Drive-By Truckers): “Range War” by Todd Rundgren

You can view the Dinosaur Jr. video today on the series website.
