During a show in Redmond, Washington over the weekend, Sleater-Kinney Courtney Barnett and Fred Armisen paid tribute to Olivier Newton-John by performing a cover of "Physical".
On Sunday (21 August) Sleater-Kinney, Courtney Barnett and Fred Armisen joined forces during a show at Marymoor Park in Redmond, Washington to perform a cover of Olivia Newton-John's 1981 single "Physical", after the star died aged 73 earlier this month.
They also wore '80s headbands for the cover, and performed aerobics choreography.
Last week Courtney Barnett released Here And There: B-Sides, Live Tracks + Demos, a compilation to benefit reproductive rights organisations.
