R&B star SZA already treated us with several impressive
covers this year, including a rendition of Aretha Franklin’s “Day
Dreaming.” Still, the cover of Wheatus’ hit “Teenage Dirtbag”
she saved for her recent Australia shows definitely outdid them all.
SZA performed at Sidney’s Hordern Pavilion on July 19th and
then made an appearance on Byron Bay’s Splendor in the Grass festival, and
performed “Teenage Dirtbag” on both nights. Judging by the audience’s
reaction, she made a really good choice. You can hear it for yourself thanks to
fan-made videos below.
This wasn’t all from SZA, as she had a couple of other
surprises for her audience. During both shows, “All the Stars” singer
also previewed a new song titled “Brace Yourself.” She also told the
audience that she is considering releasing the track while being on tour across
Australia. Hear the snippet of the song below.
SZA will wrap up her Oceania tour soon, as she only has one
show left to play at Auckland’s Spark Arena. This means that we should expect
“Brace Yourself” to get out soon. The singer previously released
“Power Is Power” which featured The Weeknd and Travis Scott as her
first single of 2019.
