Following the release of their second album, 'Cave Rave' (out now on Zirkulo/PIAS/Atlantic), Crystal Fighters have unveiled the first in a series of acoustic videos.
The video features the band playing live in a cave ahead of their special one-off show on 29th August in a cave, deep in the Basque hills where they wrote the 'Cave Rave' album. The first video in this series, an acoustic take on the album's lead single 'You & I', is now available on YouTube below.
Playlisted on Radio 1 and with the official video for the single passing 1million views on youtube, 'You & I' is fast becoming a fan favourite for the summer.
Fresh from their their electrifying performance at Optimus Alive this weekend, which gained them the title of "best festival band on the planet" from Gigwise, Crystal Fighters will play a host of festival dates throughout the summer including Reading & Leeds (headlining the Festival Republic stage) and Bestival. They'll then head out on a full UK tour in November, with their biggest London headline show to date at London's Brixton Academy. Full UK listings below.
