Bears, beets, battlestar galactica...

...Beastie Boys, barbershop.

The internet came to me and a dream and asked me to make this.  Now you can hear 90's rap rock in olde tyme 4-part harmony.

More music played wrong

For a recent love-themed Valentine's Day concert some friends and I decided to cover Elton John's "Can You Feel the Love Tonight".  I insisted on changing the instrumentation, though.  For an Elton John tune that means no piano.  First we tried out voice with a violin-cello duet, but that didn't quite work out.  The vocalist suggested replacing the violin with guitar and we eventually got to the version below.  It's Mallory on vocals, Kelli on cello, and myself on guitar.  Enjoy!

Mallory, Hannah, and I are covering Lisa Loeb's "Stay":
