Direct Current have reported that a Fleetwood Mac cover album is coming soon featuring a diverse range of indie artists.

It’s from producer Randall Poster, who was behind the Rave On Buddy Holly tribute, and it promises some “radically reworked” versions of Fleetwood Mac classics.

The line-up is interesting, everyone from indie synth act MGMT to legendary singer Marianne Faithful to Antony Hegarty (of Antony And The Jonhsons) to Billy Gibbons from ZZ Top to Swedish pop sprite Lykke Li.

Check out the track choices below. They didn’t have a confirmed title, but it’ll be released on September 14th through Hear Music/Concord. While it won’t be on the album, indie bands have had a shot at Fleetwood Mac before, so check out the Vampire Weekend cover of ‘Everywhere’ below.
