Watch Franz Ferdinand, James Blake & Radkey Play Jools Holland

The third in a new series of Later… With Jools Holland took place last night, starring Franz Ferdinand, James Blake, Radkey and Chas & bloody Dave.

Franz played standout tracks from their ‘Right Thoughts, Right Words, Right Action’ record, in turn proving that Alex Kapranos continue to defy the ageing process. James Blake played ‘Retrograde’ from his second ‘Overgrown’ LP, giving brave attempts to hide his fringe behind the world’s biggest microphone.

New boys Radkey - a trio of brothers from Missouri - made an exciting appearance, playing ‘Out Here In My Head’, in between current touring duties alongside fellow thrashers Drenge.

Watch three standout performances below:
