The band’s cover of the Wildflowers cut plays it pretty darn faithfully. The performances are jangly and frontman Adam Granduciel’s lead vocals even sound a bit like Petty himself. Listen for yourself below.

Earlier today (September 4th), The War on Drugs announced Live Drugs Again, their follow-up to 2020’s Live Drugs. To accompany the announcement, they also shared a live version of “Burning.”

Speaking of The War on Drugs performing live, the band is also set to co-headline the “Zen Diagram Tour” with The National. The run features support from Lucius and kicks off on September 12th in Gilford. Get tickets here.
