Hear Years & Years cover All We Are’s ‘I Wear You’
Sparse piano rendition adds a twist to the Liverpool outfit’s original.

All We Are’s debut - due out 2nd February 2015 - is a big cuddly swarm of gorgeousness. Every tone is precise, each guitar line a source of loveliness. Those stakes have been upped even further by hyped trio Years & Years, who’ve provided a new cover of All We Are’s ‘I Wear You’.
The original, Dan Carey-produced dose of intimate psych has been stripped entirely. Here, Olly Alexander leads the way on a sweet, sparkling piano ballad.
It’s a rework that arrives just before both bands go into 2015 with big hopes. Listen below, and catch up with Years & Years Maida Vale session for Radio 1.
All We Are support Marika Hackman at London’s XOYO tonight (18th November), before playing a free show at London’s The Macbeth (24th November) and appearing at Dingle, Ireland’s Other Voices Festival (14th December).
Years & Years are currently on tour with Sam Smith - they play the following 2015 dates:
FEBRUARY
26 Birmingham, Institute Temple
27 Manchester, Deaf Institute
28 Nottingham, Bodega
MARCH
02 Bristol, Thekla
03 Glasgow, King Tut’s
05 London, Heaven
07 Brighton, The Haunt
