The Los Angeles-based rock duo announced in September that they intend to split up after releasing their upcoming album ‘Sistrionix 2.0’ early next year.
Ventilator Blues’ was originally released on the Stones’ classic 1972 album ‘Exile on Main St.’. Speaking about their version, Deap Valley’s Lindsey Troy said: “Covering “Ventilator Blues” was a special privilege to pay homage to one of the greatest and most seminal bands in the history of rock ’n’ roll. We recorded this song in 2014 and it has been in the vaults ever since, so I’m glad it’s finally seeing the light of day,”
“’Ventilator Blues’, one of our favourite Rolling Stones songs, is a song about the inevitable end we are all hurtling towards, and we felt it was a perfect way to soundtrack the final chapter of Deap Vally,” she added.
Deap Vally are also preparing to play a final run of shows across North America, kicking off in San Francisco’s Casbah on November 11. Tickets for all those dates can be found here. The band have also stated that more dates will be revealed soon, including some UK shows.
