Some might think electro dance music can only be heard in a club.
Still, this video definitely proves otherwise.
As these buskers showed, even electronic music and techno can become something you play acoustic in middle of a street.
Don’t believe us? Showhawk Duo will convince you with their cover of “Sandstorm”—before transitioning into “Bohemian Rhapsody” and “Miserlou.”
Just when you think you’ve heard it all, someone pops up with an awesome cover that makes you stop and listen.
And remember: if a busker made you stop walking, you owe him something! This busking duo called Showhawk Duo not only made people stop and watch—plenty of people passing by stopped and sat down on the pavement to listen to their awesome performance. It definitely says a lot about what great players they are.
One thing’s for sure: their show was unlike anything we’d ever heard before.
Young British guitarists Mikhail Asanovic and Jake Wright, together known as The Showhawk Duo, have a spectacular approach to playing guitar.
That’s probably the reason why their cover of “Bohemian Rhapsody” will amaze you as much as it amazed us. We wouldn’t have believed it was possible to achieve such a sound if we hadn’t see it with our own eyes.
You can tell that they have a lot of talent and dedication.
The duo is now known worldwide, and their live performances are famous for always being spectacular and having it all.
These guys play everything, from old-school rock to modern funky house. But who exactly are these two virtuosos? Mikhail has studied at Manchester’s RNCM and is a classical guitarist at heart. On the other hand, Jake loves electric music and grew up playing in rock and metal bands. Their different experiences mean they complement each other perfectly—and that’s exactly how they sound, as if someone took two different people who are among the best at what they do and had them produce something fantastic together.
The result is a fantastic live show that will leave you speechless.
The Showhawk Duo has appeared on BBC Radio 1 on the Nick Grimshaw’s Breakfast Show, where they did a 40-minute live broadcast for BBC Radio Bristol.
These two immensely talented young men have performed at most of the UK’s large festivals including the Main Stage at Bestival, Glastonbury, Isle of Wight Festival, Secret Garden Party, Wilderness, Somersault, Lost Village, Boomtown and more.
By the end of the show, the people simply don’t want to leave.
We can see the crowd asking for more each time they stop playing.
It’s beautiful to see different generations enjoying the same music. In the audience are young people, children, and older folks, and everyone moves to the rhythm of Showhawk Duo’s magic. We loved this performance, and it’s probably among the best we’ve seen in a while.
The Showhawk Duo is already selling out all of their live shows.
The duo had 2015, 2016, 2017, and 2018 UK tours where their shows were sold out.
They had five-star reviews and an official sold-out show at Edinburgh Fringe. Some of the most memorable International performances were the F1 Grand Prix in Singapore, shows in the Seychelles, club tours in Spain, in Switzerland and across Europe.
It’s catchy, enjoyable and relaxing—and it will put you in the mood to dance.
That’s all it takes to have a good time! We wish them a lot of success, and even more creativity with their future work.
