Courtney Hadwin has done it again, this time paying tribute to one of rock’s most legendary vocalists, the one and only Janis Joplin. Stripping Mercedes Benz down to its bare essentials Hadwin delivered a mesmerizing a cappella performance that sent chills down the spines of listeners.
Mercedes Benz was one of the last songs Janis Joplin, who is one of Hadwin’s biggest influences recorded before passing away, making the song an essential bit of music history. Few artists can channel Joplin’s energy like Hadwin, who infuses genuine feeling into each note!
