“Thinking About You” cover by Typhoon (orig. Frank Ocean)

Self-proclaimed “post-pop” Portlandians Typhoon released a cover of R&B star Frank Ocean’s “Thinking About You.”

While Frank Ocean’s original is synth-filled and bass-driven, Typhoon takes their guitars, drums, string ensemble, female vocal harmonies and the occasion synth and trashcan-bang combo to give their cover an indie folk / indie rock feel.

[NEW]: Portland Releases “Deezy Daisy”
