Future Islands made a pretty cracking US TV debut on The Late Show With David Letterman, and now Mike Hadreas - AKA Perfume Genius - has done the same.
Hadreas and his band performed "Queen" from recent record Too Bright.
In our 9/10 review of the record, we said that: "as Perfume Genius, he’s finding new ways to step out of the haze and to explore himself, his sexuality and the world around him. Mike Hadreas doesn’t necessarily need your understanding, but you’d be a fool not to prick up your ears and hear what he has to say."
Watch below.
