Pretty Poison

Today's video comes from London's The Real Tuesday Weld. The song, Kix, is a cover of Cole Porter's beloved classic I Get  A Kick Out You set to electronica beats and sung here by a Powerpuffed stand-in for lead singer Stephen Coates. Coates has one of the loveliest crooning voices I've heard, like a vintage brandy, well suited for the era (30-40's) that he favors.

If you like what you hear here be sure to go to their Myspace page and check out the steampunky 'Puttin on the Ritz' version of Beyonce's Crazy In Love. and other inspired covers. Their single "Last Words" was on Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist. See video here.

The Real Tuesday Weld's concept album The London Book of the Dead, with  vintage characters in a re-imagined 1930s London is out now.
