Dovydas is a well-known street musician in Florida.

He is popular on YouTube and has been known to give other audience members a chance to join him on stage.

His YouTube slogan is simply, “I make music.”

He told SRQ Magazine,

“I had heard about gamers that can make $10 million a year playing video games on YouTube…so I thought, ‘television is dead’ and I shifted my focus to YouTube.”

His idea seems to be working out pretty well for him.

His performance with Vere Hill took place at St. Armands Circle in Sarasota, Florida, and quickly went viral.

Hill’s soulful, smooth voice adds something special.

We’ve all heard the super-talented hit song Tennessee Whiskey by Chris Stapleton.

“You’re as smooth as Tennessee Whiskey…you’re as sweet as strawberry wine. You’re as warm as a glass of brandy and honey I stay strong on your love all the time.” – Tennessee Whiskey by Chris Stapleton.
