Today, Canadian singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Leif Vollebekk and Australian singer-songwriter and musician Angie McMahon, unveil a captivating new cover of The Eagles‘ iconic hit ‘Take It to the Limit.’ With emotive vocals and haunting lap steel arrangements from the Grammy-award winning musician Cindy Cashdollar, (renowned for her work with Bob Dylan, Van Morrison, Ryan Adams), Vollebekk and McMahon reimagine ‘Take It to the Limit,’ offering a fresh yet reverent interpretation to this timeless anthem.
On ‘Take It to the Limit Vollebekk honors a major musical influence, “My good friend Angie McMahon and I spontaneously recorded ‘Take It to the Limit’, my favourite Eagles song, when I was last in Australia. I grew up listening to those gorgeous Eagles harmonies with my dad. One cassette, side A, side B. And flip it again. I love the orchestra (it’s partly why I added an orchestra on “Revelation”) but it’s the blend of their voices that gets me on this song.”
