Today’s selection is a funky take on the Oasis classic Wonderwall – this brilliant performance is composed by the group Scary Pockets, featuring lead vocals by Darren Criss.
First off, if you don’t know of Scary Pockets, you need to know – these guys are hands-down the GOAT funk cover group. They cycle in different featured musicians for each performance, and put out new content weekly. For Wonderwall, they’ve teamed up with actor/singer Darren Criss. Now you may recognize Darren from his work on the show Glee, or more recently playing killer Andrew Cunanan on American Crime Story: The Assassination of Gianni Versace (he won the “Best Actor” Emmy for his performance). But don’t be fooled, Darren is a killer behind the mic as well – this passionate performance is a testament to his musical talents.
