JAKARTA - Weezer will appear at the 2022 Soundrenaline festival which will be held at the end of the month. Ahead of their appearance, they sang Chrisye's recent School Children's song.

It all started with Rivers Cuomo, the vocalist of Weezer who asked on Discord. He asked if there was an Indonesian song that surprised the audience when it was performed.

A fan suggested songs belonging to the late Chrisye. He mentioned School Children, one of Chrisye's songs which is a hit and well known by various generations.

The worried Rivers Cuomo finally tried to sing School Children based on the late guidance and lyrics sent by fans. Then he uploaded the recording while singing School Children.

In the recording version, Rivers can be heard reciting the lyrics of School Children slowly. The music is made in Weezer's style but remains familiar to listeners.

Reportedly, the song Anak Sekolah will be performed by Weezer in their performances at the Soundrenaline and Now Playing Festival.

Weezer itself is used to resing songs from several artists. In 2019, they released a Teal Album containing Weezer featuring songs from TOTO, Aha, Black Sabbath, TLC, and Michael Jackson and others.

Weezer will appear as the headliner in the 2022 Soundrenaline which will be held from 26-27 November 2022 at Allianz Ecopark Ancol, Jakarta.
