Thirdstory is known for their sublime vocal harmonies, but they are much more than a vocal group. Described by Pusha T as “unique, raw and fundamentally talented,” they are a collective of distinctly gifted singer-songwriters and performers. Thirdstory mixes pop songwriting and soulful singing with electronics and live instrumentation, an eclectic mix that also includes elements of folk guitar and hip hop production.
Elliott Skinner, Ben Lusher, and Richard Saunders formed Thirdstory in 2013 after a serendipitous meeting on New York's Lower East Side. Their crowning achievement thus far is their first EP, Searching, an emotionally expansive and impactful debut produced by Malay (whose recent work includes Frank Ocean's "Blonde").

6 years on still one of the best covers I’ve heard

[@joyannnecruz]

Listening to their rendition actually makes you understand the song and has a lot more feeling than the original itself. This was amazing

[@adrian4064]

Exactly!

[@adrian4064]

Makes me wonder if Brittney was referring to her self

[@penaiarawasoi712]

Yeaaaaahhhh

[@TypeFresh305]

real

[@moses9647]

It's actually why it's my favourite Britney song. It comes off as a bop but if you actually listen to it it's pretty sad. Like the girl she's singing about (might also be giving Britney too much credit lol)

[@adress13]

I love seeing singers vibing off each other so well. The way they react to each others vocal decisions is awesome to watch. Loved everything about this. Especially Abbey's runs like what even.

[@StorMyKilo]

thats what happens when you have fun wit it

[@inari2849]

Noah Fairweather That’s what happens when you can sing

[@reez3045]

She can saaaaang

[@widdd_]

Okay does anyone else notice how Ben looks at her when she sings. and at the end how Richard stared at Elliot while he sang with her. I love how they admire each other. They're all beasts yet the still stop and soak in someone else's beauty. I love it.

[@invision96]

I swear. Black man. 41 years of age. Let me tell you something about this song here. I had to pull over in my car because of the visions of Love this song here made me see. Like.......I saw myself and the love of my life in a beautiful dress as we walked through a fall forest and the leaves fell and we walked hand and hand with each other.... Wow... This song here....

[@invision96]

@B Marie Thank you B Marie. Not many songs today that give out those Visions or Express Love. A lot of bad Spirits in the music today. Just really refreshing to find a rare Jewel like this out there. Much like yourself. Blessings Queen...
