Ezra Talks "Horchata" • "It's always been one of my favorite drinks," VW's singer tells NME. "I don't know if you can find much Horchata in England, it's a sweet Mexican rice drink, usually served cold." Also: "The percussionist who plays a bunch of stuff on 'Horchata' is a Brazilian guy named Mauro Refosco. We just heard he's joined Thom Yorke's band." More Q&A on UK newsstands tomorrow.
