Whitehorse's Leave No Bridge Unburned is currently nominated for the Polaris Music Prize, but the duo of Melissa McClelland and Luke Doucet are venturing away from the material on that LP by sharing a cover of Beck's Guero cut "Go It Alone."

This intimate performance video was filmed in a single shot at the Painted Lady in Toronto. It begins with the duo looping bass and drums to create a swaggering rhythmic backdrop. From there, Doucet unleashes his usual guitar heroics and the pair harmonize on joint lead vocals, adding a subtle country flair to this faithful rendition of the funky tune.
