Video: Temples, “Keep in the Dark” (Live in the Mazda Backseat Studio)

Watch Temples perform a stripped-down version of “Trouble” in the Mazda Backseat Studio for The FORT’s #MazdaMusic series.

March 18, 2014


At last week's The FADER FORT Presented by Converse, Mazda provided totally free shuttle rides to and from our home base in downtown Austin. Additionally, they pulled aside a few hype-worthy acts for intimate acoustic sessions in the backseat of a brand-new Mazda3 sedan. In this clip, UK-bred psych rockers Temples perform a bare-boned rendition of their "Keep in the Dark," single, which was allegedly recorded in a space even smaller than this one. Here, they play up the song's wine-stained melancholy and its warm, 1960s-style harmonics. Check back for more videos from the #MazdaMusic series as the week rolls on.
