Matthew E White is the latest name to perform in the esteemed Black Cab Sessions series, which sees big names performing in the back of a London taxi.
White follows in the footsteps of Courtney Barnett, Hinds and Django Django in the latest run. He performs an acoustic version of recent single "Rock & Roll is Cold", with a full band, who play the percussion on tennis racquets.
It's a remarkably hearty version that shines a light on the track's country-western details.
White's latest album, Fresh Blood, is out now via Domino.
Check out the Black Cab Session performance below.
