The track ‘Pumped Up Kicks’ by Foster The People will almost certainly be familiar to you already. If you are from Australia, in particular the cover by the simply awesome Owl Eyes from Melbourne should also have been on your radar too as this track was recorded for Triple J’s Like A Version.
For those that don’t fit the above category, let me introduce you to one of the best covers you’ll discover this year from one of Australia’s up and coming artists for 2012!!! Owl Eyes is sensational both on record and and as a live performer. If you’ve seen her live and performing this song, you’ll know that she brings the house down every time with it. It’s quite something when you’re there.
Check out Owl Eyes at Twitter and Facebook here and get onboard her Raiders and Faces EP as you will not be disappointed.
