While recently working on a singles cover project, Jared Putnam of The March Divide decided to revisit a couple of covers, from years past. The version of “Pictures of You” (by The Cure) was originally released on The March Divide’s 2014 EP, Four. Never really happy with the final outcome of the song, Putnam worked with mix engineer Mike Major (At The Drive-In, Coheed and Cambrea), to add keys & remix the The Cure cover.
