MAG: DAUGHTER GET LUCKY DAFT PUNK COVER



London trio Daughter did a Live Lounge for Huw Stephens (who I bumped into at the British Library a couple weeks back, jokes) on BBC Radio 1 yesterday, and as well a couple of their own tracks from the superb debut album "If You Leave", they ended with the customary mystery cover and chose Daft Punk's new one. And isn't it amazing?

Make what you will of the original with Pharrell Williams (personally I'm a fan) but Daughter's distinct sound is beautifully infusing and it's a great match with this track "Get Lucky". They said on the show that the song's been on constant repeat since it came out and what a twist they've given it. I've bought tickets to see the band live in October and this just excites me all the more.
