Katie Stelmanis’ gothic pop project Austra are currently on tour in Australia, and they’ve stopped by Triple J Radio in Melbourne while over there. As is custom, the band performed a cover for the station’s Like A Version segment, on this occasion opting to create their own version of Robyn’s “None of Dem” from her Body Talk pt. 1 album. The original’s beats are created by Royksopp, creating a fuller, more vibrant sound, but Austra’s version is stripped back and (unsurprisingly) haunting.
Watch the performance in the video below, following a short discussion about why Australian cities are eerily similar to Canadian ones.
