In a secret slot for Best Fit during last year's End of the Road festival, Marika Hackman pulled Laura Marling up for a whisper-quiet version of Foo Fighters' "Tired of You" and you can now watch that performance.
Of all the secret shows and sessions Best Fit has pulled off at End of the Road, this one was truly a bit special. The BRIT-nominated Laura Marling and singer/songwriter Hackman played some of the festival's stand out sets during the weekend and bringing them together at the forest-set piano stage was, for many people, the highlight of the entire weekend.
Tickets are on sale now for this year's End of the Road Festival, which runs from 2-4 September at Larmer Tree Gardens. Marika Hackman's We Slept At Last is out now via Dirty Hit.
