See Taylor Momsen offer a message of hope with a moving acoustic cover

Taylor Momsen, frontwoman of the Pretty Reckless, performed a stripped-down acoustic cover of “(What’s So Funny ‘Bout) Peace, Love And Understanding” performed by Elvis Costello & The Attractions and written by Nick Lowe with only her guitar at her side for the Fearless At Home livestream.

Fans of Momsen’s music saw a departure from the glam-rock energy of her band in a humble and raw performance perfect for relaxing listeners who need healing during these trying times.

Momsen offered hope to listeners during the broadcast saying, “I can’t wait for this storm to pass, as I’m sure all of you can’t either, which it will. This is going to pass.”

The Pretty Reckless not only participated in Fearless Records‘ livestream, they also announced in early May that they signed with the label. The band have a fourth record on the way.

AltPress had the chance to chat with Momsen about her involvement in the livestream, joining a new label and living in self-isolation. Check out the livestream performance and full interview below.

The Pretty Reckless recently got signed to Fearless Records and you are working on LP4. What can fans expect from the new label and your forthcoming album?

The new partnership with Fearless already feels like having the support of family.  It’s a new era in the life of the band and this record feels like being reborn.

How are you and the rest of your band members working together for the new album during this period of self-isolation?

It’s definitely a new struggle to overcome, and we’re still working on adapting to it. The truth is, no one knows what’s going to happen, so we’re navigating these new waters carefully.

What hobby or odd habit have you developed while being stuck inside?

Just playing a lot of music. Personally, I guess working out at home isn’t something I did much before that I’m doing now. I’m used to getting outside more, but you’ve gotta do what you’ve gotta do.

What is the most exciting part of being involved with Fearless At Home?

I love the cause, I love our crew. Our crew is like family and anything I can do to support them and other people in this position is at least something.  I can’t change the world, but I can sing a song about it.
