During the making of the genre-defying documentary 20,000 Days on Earth, Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds played an intimate club show at Koko in London, a beautiful old Victorian music hall.
Wanting to do something special for the fans, while filming scenes for the film with Kylie in Brighton, he asked her if she’d like to come and sing their infamous duet.
Kylie jumped at the chance, and a few weeks later walked out on stage and performed Where The Wild Roses Grow live with Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds for the first time in 15 years, and the above footage is an outtake from the film.
20,000 Days On Earth, the debut directorial feature by British visual artists lain Forsyth and Jane Pollard, portrays a fictionalized 24 hours in Nick’s life. With startlingly frank insights and an intimate portrayal of the artistic process, the film examines what makes us who we are, and celebrates the transformative power of the creative spirit.
Cave’s latest creative endeavour is a national solo Australian tour where he will be presenting an evening of songs from right across his considerable catalogue, including from the latest entry in his discography, the mutli-award-winning, AMP-nominated Push The Sky Away.
The album became Nick Cave and The Bad Seeds’ first-ever #1 album in their 30 year history, scooped two ARIA Awards (for Best Independent Release and Best Adult Contemporary Album) and was a darling of critics worldwide (including Tone Deaf readers who named it the #1 Aussie album of 2013).
