As they build up to the release of their new album in a few weeks, Andy McCluskey and Paul Humphreys of Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark stopped by BBC Radio 2’s “Chris Evans Breakfast Show” on Friday to perform four songs — including a cover of David Bowie’s “Heroes.”
Below, you can watch video footage of that “Heroes” performance. And head over to the BBC’s site to hear the rest of the performances: the duo plays “Enola Gay” around the 2:03 mark, then comes “The Punishment of Luxury,” the title track from the new LP, at 2:20, followed by “Locomotion” at 2:45.
OMD will release their new album The Punishment of Luxury on Sept. 1.
