Ben Howard has tackled Jessie Ware's standout single "Wildest Moments" for Fearne Cotton's last-ever Live Lounge.
The track featured on Ware's immense debut Devotion, and gets a stripped-back performance from Howard and his band. Instead of lush, heartache R&B-pop, we see Howard weave in stringy guitars, distant emotion and intense solemnity.
Ware's latest LP Tough Love is out now. Howard's most recent record, I Forgot Where We Were, was released in 2014.
Check out Howard's rendition of "Wildest Moments" below.
