‘So Tied Up‘ was recorded by Cold War Kids and Bishop Briggs in something of a rush job.
That’s because together they had only two hours to practice the song and get it recorded. But, as lead vocalist Nathan Willett told Consequence of Sound, that didn’t really matter. Not when it came to working with Bishop Briggs.
“We were between tours and I hadn’t actually met Bishop in person and the band hadn’t worked out any arrangement. We had like 2 hours. Luckily Bishop was so confident and her voice is perfection; the voice of a woman twice her age, so raw and sophisticated … I sorta laid in the cut and watched her explode.”
