With LA trio Haim heading on tour shortly with French alt-rockers Phoenix they decided it was a good idea to be learn some of their mother tongue.
A good idea and also the recipe for a great video clip, as NME found out. The video interview, shot at Reading festival this weekend, sees the sisters Haim learning how to say basic French phrases and also get their Kanye on by knowing how to impatiently order some croissants.
“How do you say ‘stupid Americans’?” “We used to ‘George Bush’, but now I don’t know what to say.”
