Manchester Orchestra, Harkin and Sarah Silverman cover Frightened Rabbit's "My Backwards Walk"

24 June 2019, 11:19 | Written by Cerys Kenneally

Frightened Rabbit have revealed two covers of "My Backwards Walk" by Manchester Orchestra and Harkin and Sarah Silverman from their Tiny Changes - A Celebration of The Midnight Organ Fight album.

The new covers of "My Backwards Walk" follow on from last week's covers of "The Modern Leper" by Biffy Clyro and Julien Baker.

Frightened Rabbit announced their Tiny Changes - A Celebration of The Midnight Organ Fight last week, and instead of being a deluxe version of their 2009 original, the remaining band members have enlisted various artists to perform Frightened Rabbit's tunes in memory of their late frontman Scott Hutchison.

The record will also feature covers by Craig Finn of The Hold Steady, Ben Gibbard from Death Cab For Cutie, The Twilight Sad, Daughter, The National's Aaron Dessner and Lauren Mayberry of Chvrches, and more.

When announcing the record, Frightened Rabbit wrote, "Scott was a vital part of bringing this album together and it's something he was very excited about and worked hard to bring to life. He listened to and approved every track on there with us and he had already started preparing the artwork which you'll see on there (if you buy it). This is a celebration of a record that connected thousands of people to Scott and connected thousands of people to each other and ten years on it is still managing to do it. Scott would probably have put in some joke here about when the album hits puberty and starts rebelling by smoking weed and getting things pierced. We're not that funny so instead let's just raise a glass, blow out the candles and make a wish."

Tiny Changes - A Celebration of The Midnight Organ Fight will be released on 12 July and is available to pre-order now. Find out more about the Tiny Changes charity over on maketinychanges.co.uk.
