Besides all the sadness and strangeness The Lathums have experienced together, their relatively short time as a band led to some pretty wild things. A number one album in How Beautiful Life Can Be, for starters. Sold out dates at iconic venues, a Europe-wide tour support slot with The Killers and heading into Abbey Road for a recent acoustic session, for three more. It was frontman of The Killers, Brandon Flowers, a Lathums fan, who sent them a rough vocal demo of him performing their peppy single, How Beautiful Life Can Be, from his hotel room to theirs. Later, Alex performed the song on stage with Brandon in Amsterdam. “It’s mad that, for the past four years, we’ve not worked a day in our lives. Every day is a weekend!” says Alex.
