Highway Terrier channel pandemic chaos into bluesy new single ‘Covid Blues’

Davis, California’s fiery rock revivalists Highway Terrier have dropped their latest single ‘Covid Blues’, a gritty, tongue-in-cheek anthem for anyone who’s ever been knocked flat by the endless cycle of colds, coughs, and Covid tests. Drawing on early blues and classic rock traditions, the track delivers raw energy, infectious swagger, and just the right amount of humour.

Originally penned and recorded by guitarist Ben Sherstinsky, who played every instrument, sang lead, and wrote the entire track, ‘Covid Blues’ distills the band’s retro-rock ethos into two punchy minutes of pure catharsis.

Already a fan favourite at their high-octane live shows, the single cements Highway Terrier’s growing reputation as one of California’s most exciting new rock acts. If you’ve ever groaned at yet another positive test, this is your soundtrack.
