Will Au Revoir Simone Cover Bowie In Ny Tonight?

See their faces in golden rays…

The quite delightful all-girl trio Au Revoir Simone have been added to the bill at tonight’s show at the Bowery Ballroom in NYC supporting one of David Bowie’s favourite bands: Clap Your Hands Say Yeah.

The girls covered Oh! You Pretty Things at a recent NY gig and they had this to say about the song on their website: “We recorded a version of David Bowie’s “Oh You Pretty Things” for a compilation that is coming out in Europe on the K7 label. We definitely made it a little spookier and dreamier. We don’t know when it will be coming out but we will let you know as soon as we do.”

If you’re in New York right now and you simply can’t wait to hear the released version of the Bowie cover, it may be an idea to get along to what promises to be a great show tonight and possibly hear it live. Please let us know if you do go and if they do play it.
