Brighton's Orchards have decided to cover IDLES' "Never Fight A Man With A Perm" song to raise money for NHS Charities Together.
"Never Fight A Man With A Perm" originally appeared on IDLES' 2018 LP Joy as an Act of Resistence, and yesterday received a fresh makeover by Orchards.
The cover was recorded after fans requested it, and the band are selling the track for £3 on Bandcamp with every penny going to NHS Charities Together, which supports "NHS staff and volunteers caring for COVID-19 patients." Those that can't commit to £3 can pay a smaller amount.
Orchards' cover of IDLES' "Never Fight A Man With A Perm" is available to buy on Bandcamp now.
