    Here’s a fun stripped down take on Owl City’s epic 2009 track, Fireflies. We filmed this while we were at an AirBnb in Osaka, Japan, and we were incredibly fortunate to be joined by incredible fingerstyle guitarist Kent Nishimura. If you haven’t heard of him before, make sure to check out some of his solo work, and keep your eyes peeled for another song we did together that should be out on his channel soon! @KentNishimuraGuitar

    Toni never cease to give us so good samples of her talent on guitar playing. And she sing at the same time, joining Reina for some short voices respons. Reina at the electronic drum is astonishing : singing and keeping the beat is harder that it could seem. Discover of Kent for me. Good guitar touching, good sound.

    what a fantastic song sung by a master vocalist. Such a great melody & rhythm. Great opening guitar playing by Toni with the keyboard & bell like sound from the harmonics of Kent's guitar. Great mix. It picked up Toni's voice softly doubling it's exact back ground vocals & harmony. Great song performed/created by some of today's greatest song writers, performers and gifted technician's.

    This is so much better than the original in my, ever so humble, opinion. This has way more feeling. Love it. Fascinating to see Toni playing with a pick and finger-picking at the same time. She really is a master of the instrument. Rachelle is clearly channelling Karen Carpenter's ability to crack out a fantastic vocal performance while flawlessly playing the drums. Kent is solid as a rock on percussive guitar. Thanks for introducing us to his stuff. Can't wait to see what you do next. ❤
