Whilst doing research for updating the South African Rock Encyclopedia entry for Venessa Nolan, I stumbled across this glorious gem. “Sunday Bloody Sunday” is a cover of the U2 classic from 1983.

Recorded in 2008.

• Venessa Nolan: vocals, keyboards
• Theo Crous: guitars
• Dave Ferguson: harmonica
• Mike Horne: drums

Produced by Jurgen Kuhnel (Colonel J) & Theo Crous

This track is most likely an outtake from the Dashboard Culture sessions in October 2008.

I had never heard this version, or even heard about it, before now!
