Brittany Howard covers Nina Simone's "Revolution" on Colbert
Brittany Howard performed a cover of Nina Simone's "Revolution" on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert shortly after being nominated for five Grammy Awards yesterday (24 November).
Yesterday was a big day for Alabama Shakes vocalist and solo artist Brittany Howard, who was nominated for five Grammy Awards, including Best Rock Song for "Stay High", Best Alternative Album for Jaime, Best R&B Performance for "Goat Head" and Best American Roots Performance for "Short And Sweet".
