The Interrupters cover of Billie Eilish’s “Bad Guy” filmed live at Ship Rec Studios has appeared on the latest series of “The Umbrella Academy”. “We are so blown away and grateful for the amount of love our “Bad Guy” cover has been receiving since being featured in season 2 of The Umbrella Academy! We are big fans of Billie’s music. We started covering “Bad Guy” while on tour in the summer of 2019. The song is SO FUN to play live so when we had the chance to do a session at Ship-Rec studios in Los Angeles we thought it would be the perfect song to record. Here it is captured live in one take, we hope we did it justice.”
In the UK streams increased over 250% last week compared to the week before. Worldwide it has shown the same kind of growth with approx a million streams over the last week! The track peaked at #18 in the Global Shazam Charts and at #14 in the UK. Here’s a link to the track as feature in the series https://twitter.com/i/status/1291208359207608320
