When The Jesus and Mary Chain recorded their first album in 19 years, this year’s Damage and Joy, they brought in former Belle & Sebastian member Isobel Campbell to sing on the track “The Two of Us”. Unfortunately, she wasn’t around to join the band when they took the song to Late Show with Stephen Colbert, but they found a solid fill-in with Sky Ferreira. Now, the alt-pop singer and the alternative legends have re-teamed for a new studio version of the song.

This marks Ferreira’s second recording with TJMC, as she also featured on the Damage and Joy track “Black and Blues”. Once again they appear to be a match made in heaven, as you can hear below (via SPIN).
Maybe Ferreira will come out with TJMC as they trek through the US later this fall. The band has just announced a new round of October dates, and you can find their complete itinerary below.
