Let’s take a look at the movies behind Pennywise Cover Songs. It’s been a year since the release of IT: Chapter Two, completing the remake of the IT Franchise. In the IT franchise, Pennywise returns every 27 years. Granted, Switching Styles is bringing you some remakes of our own choice merely a year later.


Pennywise the Clown from Stephen King's IT. Creepy clown with red hair and pom-poms in a tattered attic, surrounded by dry overgrown grass, creating an eerie, unsettling mood.

Both versions of IT, played by Bill Skarsgård and Tim Curry, were terrifying as Pennywise the clown. Utterly terrifying. Skarsgård didn’t have much time with his co-stars for the first film, as they wanted them to be more genuinely scared of Pennywise the first time they saw him.

But it’s not just the child co-stars that were scared of both the actor and the player. 


Bill Hader, the actor playing Richie Tozier, didn’t realize how scary Skarsgård really was. Skarsgård can actually move his eyes in two directions at once. Harder once asked Skarsgård what kind of special effect it was. While in full makeup for Pennywise, Skarsgård responded with “Oh, you mean this?” and showed him. It freaked Harder out!

Granted it would freak anyone out.

Switching Styles is based in central Alberta, on the enduring homelands of many Indigenous Peoples, including the Beaver, Big Stone Cree, Cree, Dënéndeh, Ĩyãħé Nakón mąkóce (Stoney), Kelly Lake Métis Settlement Society, Ktunaxa ɁamakɁis, Lheidli T’enneh, Michif Piyii (Métis), Mountain Métis, Niitsítpiis-stahkoii (Blackfoot / Niitsítapi), Očhéthi Šakówiŋ, Tsuut’ina, ᓀᐦᐃᔭᐤ ᐊᐢᑭᕀ Nêhiyaw-Askiy (Plains Cree), Woodland Cree, and many others. As a Canadian music platform, we recognize that the arts exist within broader systems shaped by colonial history. Colonial policies and practices deliberately sought to suppress Indigenous cultures, traditions, and songs. We acknowledge this history and its ongoing impacts of colonialism. We are grateful for the opportunity to share music and culture on these lands, and we commit to ongoing learning, accountability, respect, and meaningful action.
 

We commit to supporting Indigenous voices and ensuring that Indigenous music, stories, and cultures are protected, amplified, and never erased.
