Hungry Heart

A 2 track rock steady single (6m 42s) — released September 25th 2015 on Record Kicks

The new single taken from The Bluebeaters' latest LP "Everybody Knows" is a storming early ska cover up version of Bruce Springsteen's Hungry Heart. The Bluebeaters took the Boss's classic hit back to Studio One in 1965 and delivers you another irresistible scorcher! On the flip side the instrumental version.

Active since 1994 with 4 studio albums for V2 and Universal Music and 2 gold records under the belt, The Bluebeaters during the last 20 years of their career have headlined festivals like Rototom Sun Splash and International Ska Fest in London. Amongst their fans, there are folks like David Rodigan, Gaz Mayall and the legendary late lamented Lloyd Knibb (The Skatalites).
