Frightened Rabbit unveil Biffy Clyro And Julien Baker covers of 'The Modern Leper'

Earlier this week, Frightened Rabbit announced their plans to release a covers version of their sophomore album 'The Midnight Organ Fight' to celebrate the record's tenth anniversary and pay tribute to their former lead singer Scott Hutchison. Now the group have unveiled the first two tracks to be lifted from their upcoming release.

Going by the name Tiny Changes, after the charity set up in Scott's honour, both Biffy Clyro and Julien Baker have taken on the single 'The Modern Leper', each adding their own unique sound to the original track. The covers LP, 'A Celebration of The Midnight Organ Fight', will also feature renditions from the likes of John Ritter, Craig Finn, Daughter, Benjamin Gibbard and many more, and will arrive on the 12th July via Atlantic Records.
