This cover of Phil Collins’ “In The Air Tonight” is about as awesome as this guy’s beard! Matt James (pictured above) is the lead singer of Blacktop Mojo, a rock band from Dallas, Texas.

Recently, the band found themselves hanging out in an open warehouse, normally used for a whiskey distillery with super high ceilings and great natural reverb. That, combined with gritty vocals and an acoustic guitar – this cover is near perfect!

At about the 3:30 mark watch for the improvised drums and Matt James launch into some really impressive notes!

Take a look!

 

 

Fun fact: Blacktop Mojo opened a concert for Bon Jovi in Dallas, Texas in 2017!

No doubt these guys are onto big things!
