Prince
HAIM started their latest tour last night at the Observatory in Santa Ana, CA. Not only did they cover Prince‘s classic “I Would Die 4 U” (from the late icon’s 1984 album Purple Rain), but the sister trio performed two brand new songs. The spirited “I Would Die 4 U” cover ended with all three sisters dancing in unison. The two new songs are reportedly titled “Give Me Just a Little of Your Love” and “Nothing’s Wrong.” Of course there’s already fan video of all three performances. Watch below.
HAIM have been working on their sophomore album, the follow-up to 2013’s Days Are Gone. Feel free to read our 2013 cover story on HAIM.
