Brooklyn duo MS MR dropped into Radio 1’s live lounge late to cover Arctic Monkeys’ ‘Do I Wanna Know’, in addition to a stripped back version of their single ‘Think Of You’.
The dream-pop pair added haunting synth and an eerie piano line to Arctic Monkeys’ top 20 single, taken from their upcoming album AM.
MS MR are currently embarking on their European tour, with this performance slotting in between their most recent performance at Pukkelpop and Reading & Leeds this weekend.
