[Watch] Richard Ashcroft - "Are You Ready?" Live on Fallon

Richard Ashcroft came back last year with this very track and last night he hit up Jimmy Fallon to perform to the masses watching. Check out his performance up top and you can pick up his brand new album United Nations of Sound which hit stores yesterday in the US. Apparently Richard said he felt "energised" while recording the new LP so when you pick up a copy see if you can feel the Verve man's energy seaping through the speakers. In the mean time enjoy the video at the top courtesy of The Audio Perv.
