With the release of the newest James Bond movie, this dynamic duo adds a quirky and playful twist with their acapella James Bond theme song. Nick McKaig and Trudbol, the vocals behind the cover, have altered the sound to make it more reminiscent of barbershop music popular in the early 20th century.
The pair harmonize and sing their way through the entire song, even supplementing musical instruments with their own voices. Staying within the James Bond theme, the boys look sharp in tailored suits and make use of the black and white silhouette and gun toting gestures associated with the movie franchise.
These two are no strangers to making acapella cover hits. Previous covers have included the Super Mario Brothers theme song as well as the theme song to ‘How I Met Your Mother.’ With a bit of old school meets new, these two have a listenable and quirky sound that is sure to continue to transcend to a plethora of other future covers.
