Phoenix team up with Bill Murray for ‘Alone On Christmas Day’ cover
The unlikely pairing have tackled The Beach Boys’ festive number.
Today in ‘alright then, sure’ news, Phoenix have teamed up with Bill Murray for a cover of The Beach Boys’ festive number, ‘Alone On Christmas Day’.
It’s taken from Bill Murray’s Netflix exclusive Christmas special, A Very Murray Christmas (10/10 punning), which is directed by Sofia Coopla, who’s married to Phoenix frontman Thomas Mars. Happy families all round. Stream it below.
The track was premiered on Zane Lowe’s Beats 1 show last night, during which Phoenix confirmed that they’re in the studio, working on a follow-up to 2013’s ‘Bankrupt!’, so even if you’re a scrooge, there’s still something to look forward to.
