The Electric Picnic-bound Franz Ferdinand have just gone live with the video for their ‘Right Action’ single, a pop art cut ‘n’ paste affair redolent of when they first burst onto the scene in 2002.
As well as gearing up for the release of their own album, Alex and the boys spent American Independence Day giving Beck’s Song Reader sheet music album its first public performance in the London Barbican.
Mr. Hansen, Jarvis Cocker, Beth Orton, Charlotte Gainsbourg, James Yorkston, Joan Wasser, Conor J. O’Brien, The Staves, Michael Kiwanuka and The Mighty Boosh were also there to add flesh to the collection.
