Watch Ayla & Montaigne Cover A Hunters & Collectors Classic For ‘Like A Version’

Sunshine Coast singer-songwriter Ayla has teamed up with Montaigne and Gang Of Youths’ Joji Malani to cover Hunters & CollectorsThrow Your Arms Around Me for this week’s Like A Version.

Ayla’s moving take on the 1984 classic (below) sees her backed by Montaigne’s vocals, Malani’s guitar work and her bass and drum-playing mates Tom and Isaac, who all build up the track from its quiet opening lines into something both uplifting and sombre.

While in the triple j studios, Ayla also performed an acoustic version of her original track Waiting, which appears on her recently released EP When The World Ends. Catch both of the performances in full, below.

Montaigne performed her own Like A Version set last year, taking a stab at Sia’s hit single Chandelier.
