New Sounds: Listen to Lambchop’s chill cover of Prince’s pop classic ‘When You Were Mine’

A few weeks ago Lambchop announced a North American tour that included a March 28 stop at Brighton Music Hall in Allston. We totally slept on posting the dates, even armed with news that Kurt Wagner enlisted Wye Oak’s Andy Stack to be part of the touring lineup to support November 2016 record FLOTUS (or For Love Often Turns Us Still).

This morning, we received a nice content nudge in the form of Lambchop’s cover of Prince’s 1980 pop masterpiece “When You Were Mine.” It’s a nice little sedative of a cover, and still manages to entertain without any of the Purple One’s glossy touches.

Listen to it below while you scan all the Lambchop tour dates, which were recent expanded to include shows pretty much everywhere. Wagner has a busy few months ahead of him.
