For her weekly Twilight livestream, Grace Potter boldly went to the set of the original Star Trek series on Aug. 3 to perform an out-of-this-world set of acoustic tunes.
After opening with an a capella take on the Star Trek theme song, Potter offered a slew of space-themed covers including “Fly Me To The Moon,” “Rocket Man” and “Space Cowboy.”
In fact, the only Potter original of the evening was her closing version of “Stars,” as originally heard on her 2012 album The Lion the Beast the Beat.
Check out a screengrab and full setlist below:
