Magdalena Bay had a big 2024 with their futuristic sophomore effort Imaginal Disk. The duo made their TV debut on Kimmel and landed at #5 on our list of the best albums of the year. Now they're covering David Bowie for Triple J's Like A Version series.
The band took on Bowie's "Ashes To Ashes" from his 1980 record Scary Monsters (And Super Creeps). "It's kind of one our all-time favorite songs, I would say," Mica Tenenbaum said in the behind-the-scenes video. Matthew Lewin added, "It's a great kind of weird, experimental pop song that I think we took a lot of inspiration from." They also played "Image" from Imaginal Disk; watch the performances below.
