Rhodes appeared on BBC Radio 1 recently, and performed a trembling cover of Taylor Swift's "Blank Space" which you can watch/hear now.
Rhodes performed the track as part of Huw Stephens' Piano Sessions. Stripped back to its emotional core, the track scales back the pomp and humour of the original to leave only a fractured heart on Rhodes' tattered sleeve.
The singer-songwriter has recently released his Turning Back Around EP via Rhodes Music; his debut full-length is set to follow in the summer.
