Mumford and Sons cover Alt-J's 'Tesselate' – listen to it here!
Indie | Wednesday 26th September 2012 | Osh
Mumford and Sons had a brilliant idea when they covered Alt-J's song 'Tesselate' on BBC Radio 1's Live Lounge. They gave the tune their very own, acoustic and folky touch, transforming the electronic elements of the original version into the typical clanging of benjo strings. The song's gripping and enchanted atmosphere remains – and that Mumford and Sons picked up on that can be considered a massive tribute to Alt-J, whose debut album 'An Awesome Wave' oozes with genre bending creativity.
