Haim's guide to living with your parents

Haim have travelled so much as a band they haven't had time to move out of their parents' home in Los Angeles.

The three sisters have just played Radio 1's Big Weekend and are about to put out their second album, Something to Tell You.

"It's so much fun, it's so nice to be back. We love it here so much. It was just such an awesome gig."
