Swedish alt. folk troubadour José González has covered '90s classic "Waterfalls" by TLC on a game show in his home nation.
He teamed up with countrymen Augustifamiljen for the cover. It's a lightly funky, smooth Sunday radio type of rendition, with the caramel keys, brass bursts and deft shuffly strums all swirling together in harmony.
González is gearing up to release Vestiges & Claws, his first record in seven years. It's due 16 February via Peacefrog.
