The new year is kicking into high gear and triple j’s Like A Version is well and truly back. The second Like A Version of the year saw Sydney favourites Boy & Bear hitting the triple j studios.

Sarah Blasko took us into the 2016 Like A Version series last week with an incredibly moving tribute to David Bowie, performing a heartfelt and powerful cover of his classic track, ‘Life On Mars’.

Now, Boy & Bear have paid tribute to another departed artist, late singer Amy Winehouse, taking on one of the UK vocalist’s most celebrated tunes and the title track from her iconic 2006 album, Back to Black.

Boy & Bear have definitely made the tune their own, transforming Mark Ronson’s classic piano riff and brooding, jazzy production into a chugging, folk rock arrangement.
