Taylor Swift surprised the audience by Haim recent gig in London by joining the band on stage for a surprise mash-up. Alana Haim invited the friend of the trio on stage to perform their song “Gasoline”.
At one point, Swift said to the audience, “Good evening London. You know, it’s been a very long time since I’ve been on stage, it’s nice, it’s nice, it’s very nice. But, you know, when I heard my girls were playing in London at the O2 and I thought, ‘I’m going to have to see that’ and it looks like there’s about 20,000 other people who have also thought that.
She added: “We thought if we were going to do some sort of mash-up, maybe we could get you to sing the loudest you’ve been singing all night, which is a lot of work because you’ve been singing very strong, it’s an extraordinary work. Would you be in? Would you like to sing with us? “
The band then continued to play “Gasoline” while Swift sang “Love Story” before returning to “Gasoline”.
Earlier this year, Haim shared a video performed by Paul Thomas Anderson for their single “Lost Track”, which found the band joining a 1950s social club.
The song was the band’s first release since their film debut, appearing in Anderson’s Licorice Pizza Last year. Alana Haim starred in the film, playing Alana Kane, while Este and Danielle – and the sisters’ parents – also starred in some scenes.
Anderson has previously directed videos for Haim for the tracks “Night So Long”, “Right Now” and “Little Of Your Love”. For the “Lost Track” video, the musicians step into the world of 1950s social clubs, transforming into ladies who lunch alongside the famous director’s friends and family.
