Turnstile bring their version of The Stones Roses live

ByJohn

The group recorded their version when they visited the Australian station’s studios months ago. Triple J. What we couldn’t imagine is that, within the “Like A Version” section, Brendan Yates’ group was going to cover nothing less than the anthem “I Wanna Be Adored” by The Stone Roses. We could imagine many covers that modern hardcore band Turnstile could have chosen, but we weren’t expecting that one.

The group performed it as a tribute to the unfortunately deceased Gary “Mani” Mounfield, bassist of The Stone Roses and Primal Scream. “It seemed like the perfect time to honor him,” explained guitarist Meg Mills. Although they themselves talked about the reasons for the choice in the interview part that you can see below these lines.

Now the news is that the group has performed it for the first time in concert. It was yesterday in Halifax (Canada), at a concert in which they also paid tribute to the recently deceased Dolly Parton, recovering part of her song “Islands In The Stream”, which the country singer recorded at the time with Kenny Rogers, another legend of the genre.
