Ibibio Sound Machine Cover David Bowie’s ‘Heroes’

    Ibibio Sound Machine have shared a cover of David Bowie’s classic 1977 single ‘Heroes’. It arrives ahead of the band’s upcoming tour of North America. Take a listen below, and scroll down for the list of tour dates.

    “’Heroes’ is one of David Bowie’s most legendary songs, one of our favourites!” Ibibio Sound Machine commented in a press release. “It was an honour for us to record our version of it, and in 2022, it still feels as timely a message and otherworldly as it must have nearly 50 years ago.”

    Ibibio Sound Machine released their latest album Electricity, a collaboration with Hot Chip, earlier this year.
