Watch: CHVRCHES and a Scottish Orchestra Craft a Stunning Version of ‘Miracle’

CHVRCHES are one of our favorite bands here at RELEVANT, not just for their terrific records (last year’s Love Is Dead was a favorite around here) but for the surprising ways they flex their sound to encounter other areas of music. They’ve already done it with their cover of Kendrick Lamar’s “LOVE.”, but now, they’re bringing something wholly different.

In partnership with the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra in honor of the launch of BBC Scotland, CHVRCHES has produced a stunning rendition of their 2018 song “Miracle.” The arrangement strips the song down for parts but reassembles it in a way that heightens its anthemic peaks, making a truly gorgeous opening broadcast for the new channel.

CHVRCHES, from Glasgow, are a fine showcase of modern Scottish art, and positioning them alongside the orchestra creates a stimulating mix of old and new.
