AUX EXCLUSIVE: Watch the Sam Roberts Band and Elizabeth Powell perform "Longitude" live at Montreal's Hotel2Tango

by Nicole Villeneuve

The Sam Roberts band released his fourth studio album Collider last year, and he recently brought it back to Montreal to perform its track “Longitude” at famed Hotel2Tango studio with Howard Bilerman (Arcade Fire). Land of Talk’s Liz Powell joins him in the studio, as she did on the record.

Roberts had this to say about the session:

“A couple of months ago, we went into Hotel2Tango studio in Montreal to record and film a live-off-the-floor video for a couple of songs from Collider. The first installment is ‘Longitude.’ Lizzie Powell, who performs the song on the album, came out of the woods, leaving behind her dogs and songs to rekindle the fire with us. Dave Pawsey is behind the camera work and editing and the sound was captured by the illustrious Howard Bilerman. Enjoy.”
