Watch Wild Beasts Play “Wanderlust” On A Giant Old Pipe Organ

British art-rockers Wild Beasts’ “Wanderlust” single is almost a year old now, but today we get to hear it in a completely different way. Thanks to reasons that have something to do with Phillips, a camera crew recently recorded the band playing an extended version of the song at London’s Royal Festival Hall, with Hayden Thorpe playing the venue’s pipe organ. This is a 7,866-pipe instrument that cost millions to build in 1966. Hearing the song with that organ on YouTube can’t be the same as hearing it when you’re in the room, but it’s still pretty impressive. Check out the video below.
