Last night’s episode of SiriusXMU Sessions featured a stripped-down performance by Unknown Mortal Orchestra. The session saw the band performing a cover a classic David Bowie song.

Frontman Ruban Nielson led the New Zealand-based group on an arrangement of “Oh! You Pretty Things.” The song originally appeared on Bowie’s 1971 album Hunky Dory.
