Rare Monk dropped an incredible cover of Bill Withers’ 1971 classic “Ain’t No Sunshine” a few months back.
The Portland, Oregan indie outfit made a trip over to the UK earlier this year for Brighton’s Great Escape festival, where we caught up with them for a live rendition of Withers’ track. Watch above or check out the recorded version.
Rare Monk’s double a-side single “Splice”/“Sleep Attack” is out now on B3SCI Records.
