Icelandic songsmith Ásgeir has unveiled a magical cover of "There's No Leaving Now", originally by The Tallest Man On Earth.
The new song is accompanied by a 'treasure hunt' which follows Ásgeir's 24-hour recording marathon which saw him take requests and record live to 7" vinyl. Now you can get your hands on the discs though a 'treasure hunt' taking place in independent record stores today, with Ásgeir's Tallest Man On Earth cover airing now - each store features unique copies with different rare songs, and some even feature other bonuses...
