Matthew Houck's Phosphorescent recently appeared on California State University's KCSN radio and performed a cover of Vampire Weekend's beloved "Ya Hey" single.

Houck's version strips away the intense production of the original, settling instead for a simple set-up of electric guitar, piano and voice. The new version is more rootsy, but also sounds entirely natural, proving the song's versatility.
