Meet Me @ The Altar has recently unveiled their rendition of the popular track “Take Me Away” coming from the iconic 2000s film Freaky Friday. Giving it their own twist, the band has made this cover a standout addition to their upcoming digital deluxe album, ‘Past // Present // Future’ which is scheduled to be released on September 29th. Pre-orders for the deluxe album can be purchased here.
Speaking about their decision to reimagine “Take Me Away”, Meet Me @ The Altar shared their deep admiration for the song and its significance:
“Aside from it just being an absolutely iconic moment in pop culture, Take Me Away, Pink Slip, and Freaky Friday as a whole had a lot of influence over us growing up.
“It’s everything we love all meshed into one – female representation in punk music, and on screen!
“Being able to pay homage to such an endless well of inspiration to us was really gratifying. It really takes you back to an era that I think we all miss.”
