They originally performed the track, which you can listen to below, as part of a livestream on April 17, on what would have been Record Store Day.
âI thought Iâd take advantage of the fact that this isnât live, and invite some other people to play with me,â frontman Jim Adkins said during the original livestream. âYouâll recognise Zach, our drummer from Jimmy Eat World⊠and Iâve also asked Bethany from Best Coast to sing with us. This is a song by a songwriter that I love a lot, [Archers of Loaf frontman] Eric Bachmann, and his working project Crooked Fingers.â
