Lightspeed Champion Sings Elvis Presley

Mon, 11 Jan 2010 12:08:15 +1100

Lightspeed Champion has recorded a classic Elvis song.

To celebrate what would have been Elvis’ 75th birthday on Friday, Lightspeed Champion is giving away a free download of his version of the track Devil In Disguise, recorded in Avatar Studios in New York. Dev Hynes, aka Lightspeed Champion, also made an accompanying video in LA which you can watch here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2W85-k4I-cQ

Whilst in Avatar Studios, Dev Hynes took the opportunity to record live versions of tracks from his forthcoming second album, Life Is Sweet! Nice To Meet You (released February 15th on LP, CD & Digital). Over the next four weeks, one of these live tracks will be available to download for free each week.

To receive your free download of Devil In Disguise and a free live track for the next four weeks head to: http://soundcloud.com/dominorecordco/lifeissweetsessions

Dev Hynes said: 'Due to a popular band having leftover studio time at New York's historic Avatar Studios, I had the opportunity of going into Studio A to record some music, Obviously I decided an Elvis song would be best. I got my friends from the band Spacecamp down and together we recorded an "almost" live version of Devil In Disguise with the help of whoever was in the building that felt like singing... including the receptionist.
