Scottish electro-pop band Chvches made a stop at the BBC Radio 1 Live Lounge yesterday in support of its debut album The Bones of What You Believe, and they decided to mix things up a bit. Instead of just playing a few of their recent hits like "The Mother We Share," the trio made an unexpected choice to cover British boy band East 17's 1994 single "Stay Another Day."
Keeping with the holiday spirit, the band wore Santa hats, too. The Glasgow natives, fronted by the adorably quirky Lauren Mayberry, reached number nine in the UK and 12 on the US Billboard 200 with The Bones of What You Believe. They also were listed on the BBC's Sound of 2013 list of the most promising new music talent.
Other artists who have shared some tunes BBC Radio 1 Live Lounge recently include London Grammar, Jason Derulo, OneRupblic and Tom Odell.
