Hey Violet - Blank Space (Live at The Troubadour, LA)
04:33
The punk-rockers put a unique spin on Taylor's huge '1989' hit single.
This ‘Blank Space’ cover has the stamp of approval from Taylor Swift herself… the 5 Seconds Of Summer boys will be proud!
Their proteges Hey Violet - the first band signed to their Hi Or Hey Records label - have recorded a cover of Taylor’s ‘1989’ smash and the US star is LOVING it.
Taylor even tweeted to show her approval after watching footage of the punk rock revamp of her chart hit, from the band’s gig at The Troubadour in Los Angeles recently.
I. Love. This. I. Love. @HeyViolet http://t.co/q1ooucz3Z9
