When Hot Chip hit NYC’s Webster Hall back in August, no one could have expected that they would be joined, on stage, by legendary Talking Heads frontman David Byrne. Byrne accompanied the band on percussion for a cover of “Dancing In The Dark” by Bruce Springsteen which transitioned into LCD Soundsystem’s “All My Friends,” marking for a truly memorable live music moment.

It seems that Hot Chip were enthralled with the performance too, as they’ll be releasing a new EP named after the Springsteen track, Dancing In The Dark, on this Friday, October 23rd. In anticipation, the band has released this official video for the Springsteen cover that segues into the LCD Soundsystem rendition, featuring live footage and so much more. Enjoy:
The four-track Dancing In The Dark EP will also include a reworking of “Cry For You” from the band’s recent album, as well as two remixes of “Huarache Lights” by Soulwax and A/Just/Ted. Pre-order/purchasing information can be found via Apple.
