Vandaveer is one of the many artists who’ve contributed to Before the Goldrush a charity compilation that benefits Teach for America. I’ve talked to some people who’ve done TfA and it seems like a really tough gig. So to help soothe their day (and yours), here’s Vandaveer covering Leonard Cohen’s “Hey, That’s No Way to Say Goodbye.”

MP3: Vandaveer – Hey, That’s No Way to Say Goodbye (Leonard Cohen)

Vandaveer will be at SXSW, both solo and performing with These United States. You can find tour dates and more on his Myspace page.
