Watch George Ezra cover Bob Dylan’s ‘Girl From the North Country’

Ask just about anyone for their thoughts on George Ezra, and they’ll say something along the lines of him having “one big voice” for a “little young Bristol guy”. It’s a bit like Peter Crouch having a good touch for a big lad, only this guy’s currently sitting pretty at number one in the UK album charts. Peter Crouch is still digging that Future Islands performance.

Midway through taking over the world, Ezra visited the SiriusXM studios for a Sirius performance of Bob Dylan’s ‘Girl From the North Country’. His version only emphasises the “holy shit” reactions to that singing voice of his, crackling into view all whiskey-soaked and gruffly.
