Irish trio Bell X1 has gone into “unplugged” mode this year, with the release of an acoustic digital EP and an upcoming acoustic U.S. tour in October. The EP (listen to it here) includes a new version of “The Great Defector” (which is off last year’s album Blue Lights On The Runway), along with covers of Don Henley’s “The Boys Of Summer,” Justin Timberlake’s “Like I Love You” and Sonny Curtis’ “I Fought The Law.” The set for the tour will feature songs spanning the band’s entire career as well as some new material that will appear on its forthcoming album, set for a 2011 release.
