Mikael Salo and David Olivares release new cover, “Bright Eyes” off upcoming tribute album.

Mikael Salo (METAL DE FACTO, EVERFROST, THY ROW) and David Olivares release new cover song, “Bright Eyes,” originally by German power metal act BLIND GUARDIAN.

The duo states: “We decided to cover “Bright Eyes” in an acoustic manner, since the song is very vivid and has a lot of interesting musical solutions throughout. It was therefore extremely interesting to take on this song, and what a challenge it turned out to be with the quite limited time frame we had to create this version!”

The song will be part of their acoustic metal tribute album, “Crossing Worlds.”
