Hear Brigitte Calls Me Baby’s Cover Of George Michael’s ‘Careless Whisper’

Brigitte Calls Me Baby have shared their cover of the George Michael classic “Careless Whisper.”

The song has been a staple in the band’s live show over the past year and it quickly became a fan favorite. “George Michael’s voice and songs have always resonated with me, but there was no specific pursuit of covering one of his songs until a very natural and organic version was developed in our show,” explains frontman Wes Leavins.

“With any song that we cover there is only truly one requirement: there must be something we can bring to the song that doesn’t already exist within the original or any version otherwise. There must be an opportunity to present ourselves within the track. The case of ‘Careless Whisper’ is no different.”

Listen to the song below.

Brigitte Calls Me Baby will launch their 2025 tour in Tokyo, Japan next month. In spring they’ll embark on a U.S. tour with a mix of headline shows and support dates for Saint Motel. See all their tour dates here.
