Spring King cover Arcade Fire’s ‘The Suburbs’

Spring King are everywhere, at the moment. Perched next to Elton John on Jools, dishing out tracks from their debut album, whizzing round the UK on a headline tour. Most recently, they visited BBC Radio 1 to perform a piano session.

In a far cry from their bolshy, attention-hogging stage antics, roles reverse for this session. Tarek Musa ditches the drum kit for once, and bassist James Green shows himself up as a crafty pianist.

The group covered Arcade Fire’s ‘The Suburbs’, as well as performing latest single ‘The Summer’. It all gets a bit emotional.

Watch the session below. ‘Tell Me If You Like To’ is out 10th June via Island.
