Julia Jacklin has recorded a cover of “Throw Your Arms Around Me” by Hunters & Collectors during a live studio session for SiriusXMU. The Australian singer-songwriter performed a slower, largely acoustic arrangement, joined by a musician providing backing vocals and guitar.
The session follows Jacklin’s September release of The Gem, which is available through 4AD. She also performed a Sugar Ray cover for Triple J as part of the album’s rollout.
Hunters & Collectors, an Australian post-punk band, first released “Throw Your Arms Around Me” in 1984. Other acts to have covered it include Crowded House and Pearl Jam. A version performed by Neil Finn and Eddie Vedder appeared in an episode of the second season of The Bear.
