Watch HAIM Perform A Cover Of Prince's "I Would Die 4 U" Live
If you had any doubt about how highly Prince is regarded by the current era of musicians, look no further. The HAIM sister kicked off their tour last night with a salute of the purplest order, performing The Kid's Purple Rain smash "I Would Die 4 U" live in Santa Ana, tracing their sonic scheme back to the Minneapolis sound that birthed it. They also debuted two new songs, presumably off a forthcoming follow-up to their 2013 introduction Days Are Gone. You can watch the LA trio perform a cover of Prince's "I Would Die 4 U" and the new songs in the clips below. For more evidence of their undying reverence for Prince and the royal purple sound, jump back to see them rock with Morris Day & The Time (also hitting the road this summer) or Prince himself at the SNL 40th anniversary bash.
