After meeting up with Frightened Rabbit’s Scott Hutchison for an ale tasting at this year’s End of the Road Festival, we figured he might be up for a bit of music too.
Commandeering a pirate ship in the forest at Larmer Tree Gardens – used the night before for an impromptu DJ set from Jarvis Cocker – we posted a few last-minute handwritten notes around the site telling folk about our plans.
Thirty minutes later, with a hundred strong audience in attendance, Scott took to the deck for a rendition of the opening track from 2008′s The Midnight Organ Fight - complete with a quite hilarious interrupted start.
