Pussy Cats

A track-for-track recreation of Harry Nilsson and John Lennon's 1974 classic. Clattering upright pianos and raspy vocals capture a specific kind of vintage chaos.

It's the Walkmen doing a Nilsson tribute, and somehow it's the most soulful they've ever sounded.

A weary, soulful celebration of rock history that feels like a warm embrace in a cold city.
