August 20, 2015, 9 years ago
Anthrax has uploaded a video of Amy Turk performing their song "Safe Home" on a harp!
"I had the total honour of playing at the wedding of my friends Tom and Natalie in August 2013," says Turk. "But was a bit surprised when they asked me to play an Anthrax song as Natalie walked up the aisle! Equally I was very keen to prove it was possible... so here's what happened."
"As always I was really keen to create an arrangement that brought out the features of the original song as much as I could (particularly recreating the drum part accurately!), so this features some fun and unconventional techniques - the muting/strumming effect at the beginning, which is done by strumming with my nails (fingers downwards and thumb upwards) and what I'm going to call the 'drop slap,' where I play one string and slap the soundboard at the same time, with the same hand."
Below is the offiical Anthrax video for "Safe Home", which was originally released on their We've Come For You All album in 2003:
