Watch/hear American power pop siblings HAIM with this astounding and
mind-boggling cover of 1969 classic OH WELL by FLEETWOOD MAC featuring
the late great Peter Green on guitar and vocals. Glastonbury Festival 2014. ACE!
The Californian pop star sisters HAIM (Danielle, Alana
and Este) have their 4th full length, named I QUIT, out.
Press info: “Haim‘s new 15-track album, I quit, was written primarily by Haim and Rostam Batmanglij, with production by Batmanglij and Danielle Haim. The album radiates the raw energy of seasoned performers whose deep reverence for classic rock shapes songs that are built for live performance.
Variety says: “If you wanted Haim to be a bit more of the rock band on record that they’ve always been on stage, this is a newly independent step back in that direction, along with all
the more personal declarations of indie-pendence.”
TUTV: The sisters know a thing or two about titillating tunes, definitely sweet, sugary
ones. They never hit the power-up button here. The songs are buoyant, mellow, smooth and most of all of a light construction. Lovely, but not impressive.
Daily noise that works faster than a stream of caffeine
1 June 2025
Back in March the Californian pop star sisters HAIM (Danielle, Alana
and Este) announced their 4th full length. It’s named I QUIT, and will
see the day of light on June 20th.
Danielle Haim: “Writing it has gotten me through some hard times, and we felt this might be of some use to get our vibes right for this summer! I started writing this after a panic attack I had the night I got home from tour. I was very confused because I was SO SO SO happy about our incredible tour, but something about being alone with myself scared the shit out of me. after a lot of reflecting I realized I’ve let a lot of people try and tell me how I should live my life, but I realized in making everyone else happy, I lost myself. I wrote this as a way to believe in myself again and quit being scared to do what I want. I hope this finds anyone who needs it.”
The power-pop sisters HAIM made a big name for themselves over the past
10 years with 3 albums and explosive live shows. Here’s an example of the L.A.
ladies’ dashing antics on stage with a bold cover of Fleetwood Mac‘s 1969 hit Oh Well (written/sung by the late great blues soul PeterGreen).
Nnot an easy song to cover with its rollercoaster progression, forth and back,
and Green‘s blistering guitar flurry. But the girls pull it off with aplomb and vigor.
The HAIM sisters will release their third album, entitled Women In Music Pt.III
this summer. So far we could hear three new cuts ‘Summer Girl, Now I’m In It andHallelujah the family trio presented their new sticky single ‘DON’T WANNA’
from their homes.
Here’s the pretty cool performance starting with
an interview and ending with laser effects…
After their triumphant 2017 album Something To Tell You the HAIM sisters returned last summer with new jaunty single Summer Girl and today they launched another new cut called ‘NOW I’M IN IT’. A song about “going through it. A depression. Not leaving the house type of shit. For my sisters and I, there have been times in our lives where we have felt like we are stuck in a dark hole. This track speaks to that emotion” says Danielle Haim.
Despite the song’s downcast and reflective content ‘I’m In It‘ sounds like pure
rapture. Frisky, swirling and twinkling. 24 Carat poppiness. Listen/watch here…
