about

Yesterday we participated in a Reddit AMA to celebrate the release of Shook. Some decent questions were asked and overall fun times were had.

One of the people asked what Beatles song we would cover and which led to us trying to recollect which cover songs we had rehearsed in the past. Back in 2015 or 2016 we had rehearsed several cover songs in a practice space in Atlanta that we planned to introduce into the set. For whatever reason (lack of time or plan) they never made it in, but here is Franklin's demo for Portishead's "We Carry On" which he brought into the space that day.

If memory serves me correctly, his loose plan was to cover this song so that we might somehow end up on their radar, which then in turn led to a longer conversation about just asking Adrian Utley to produce the next record. It was early days and we were still figuring things out. It hadn't really occurred to us at that point that we could simply reach out to people that we wanted to work with. Nonetheless, enjoy this demo with Franklin doing his best Beth Gibbons impersonation.
