Watch Arctic Monkeys and Warpaint play on “Later with.. Jools Holland”

leave a comment »

So if you find yourself hanging inside on this dreary Saturday in Philadelphia, you should check out Arctic Monkeys and Warpaint on Later with.. Jools Holland from last night. Arctic Monkeys have a new record titled Suck It And See coming next month and they’ll be playing a sold out show at the Electric Factory next week. Warpaint were just here so it may be a little while before they come back again. Enjoy!
