The original version stems from their sixth studio album
The Head and The Heart has teamed with Hurray for the Riff Raff on a new version of “Cop Car,” the original of which can be found on the group’s acclaimed new Verve Forecast album, Aperture.
The band’s lead singer, Jonathan Russell, has been a fan of Hurray for the Riff for many years, after first discovering the Alynda Segarra-led project via a video of them singing outside of a New Orleans house. After a recent listen to the Hurray for the Riff Raff track “Alibi” while flipping through the radio dial, Russell was inspired to reach out and propose a collaboration.
Hurray for the Riff Raff will support The Head and The Heart on the final few dates of their in-progress North American headlining tour, the itinerary for which can be seen below. A dollar from every ticket will be donated to the band’s Rivers and Roads Foundation, which raises money for local Seattle-based music programs and initiatives with an emphasis on equitable access to music education and mental health resources.
