Incubus frontman Brandon Boyd has been working a new solo album of mostly covers during the pandemic. One of those covers he debuted recently during a virtual festival for Cat Stevens. Boyd covered Stevens Wild World and it is available now via digital outlets. Boyd said of the recording “About as close to a perfectly written song as one can get, I was mindful of ‘interpreting’ it and decided to honor this piece of art by playing it in its original arrangement.” —WILD WORLD AUDIO
