Rickenbacker in an AVClub video?
January 10, 2013 9:11 AM   Subscribe

I have a recollection of one of, I think, the AVClub covers project videos where the band's bass player is playing a Jetglo Rickenbacker 4001/4003. I thought it was maybe Hospitality doing Rikki Don't Lose That Number, but it isn't.

I think it's a well-known but not super-famous contemporary indie band. I think it is a 'rock band' lineup (guitar or two, bass, drums). I think the song has a prominent bass line. It's possible that it is a woman bass player. It might not even be a very good song, I just have an image of it in my head and can't remember who it is.

Yes, I've looked at the AVClub Covers videos, but I haven't watched EVERY one of them. Maybe it is something similar - the KEXP stuff? Tiny Desk? Argh.

Yes, I am wasting a question on this.

Response by poster: Ooh! Maybe?

I'm going to reserve judgement and see if anyone else comes up with another one, because that's the Fireglo, and I really see the Jetglo (black) in my mind. But, gosh, maybe that is it?

Best answer: Shearwater and Sharon Van Etten covering Stop Draggin' My Heart Around?

I'm fairly certain it's the Screaming Females covering Sheryl Crow.

Response by poster: I'm pretty sure it was Stop Draggin My Heart Around.

Wow! Lotsa Rics!

IAACBPWAJR4 (I am a Chick Bass Player With a Jetglo Rickenbacker 4001), but I don't think I am your CBPWAJR4. Am I?

Response by poster: Platinum, true, alas, you are not the CBPWAR4 I was thinking of, but there's no such thing as too many BPWAJR4s! I myself am a recently minted BPWAJR4s (a 4003, oh how I love it) and no doubt that is what set me trying to remember who this band was.

Cheers!
