Jon McLaughlin - Dueling Pianos Feat. Ben Rector (Beautiful Disaster/Brand New)

[@csandlinjr]

So I'm sitting in the 6th row last Friday night in Hershey PA with my 13 year old daughter to see 2Cellos. . . preparing to suffer through the obligatory opening act when Jon McLaughlin walks out and sits at his piano. I must confess that we did not know you or your music. Thank God we do now. You blew us AWAY. We laughed. We sang (after your fine coaching). We cried (after "Still My Girl"). A miracle occurred as your performance made it cool for a teenage daughter to hug her Dad in public. Your music touched her heart and she could see that I (with eyes full of tears) needed THAT hug. You gave us both a moment we will never forget. You're talent is a blessing. Please don't ever forget how much it is appreciated. . . even by a grumpy, old Dad with a melted heart.

Charles Sandlin This comment absolutely made my day - thank you

[@K.D.Meyers]

Wow. That's awesome. This is only the 2nd video I've ever seen by him, I hadn't heard of him before. I'll have to listen more.

[@brucenathanson8402]

Wow, this is beautiful. Thanks for letting us in on this special experience. And, Jon, you're awesome!

[@pdogg1079]

Man, it sure got dusty over here real quick. Good story.

[@morrisbeful]

Love this story

[@mrsshaffer10]

This is the soundtrack of the journey from adolescence to adulthood: "Beautiful Disaster" to "Brand New".

[@johnb9666]

All of them, EVERY SINGLE ONE of these dueling pianos performances. Put them on a CD, release them digitally. Do something with them other than just these wonderful videos. Too good for just online content Jon.

[@wystemd]

two soulmates having fun with what they love most, it can be as simple as that!

[@sugarbuttersara]

So so beautiful. Really have to campaign for my girl Sara B to get in on this.

[@juanmanuelaguirre7033]

Any update on this huhu they need another collab

[@JoeHenkel]

Ben Rector is incredible. I don't know who you are Jon, but this collab made me wanna check out your music.

[@barrybob85]

My 2 favorite male singer/songwriter piano players together. I love all three of the new dualing piano series.

[@bafriesen]

These two songs are so amazingly melted together into a whole "brand new" song. Incredible stuff!

[@sprluver1234]

[@pennyl8006]

WAIT WHAT I'M SHOOK, THIS IS SO ICONIC HOW--

[@cheriseking4945]

Every time I hear one of these songs separately I feel upset that the other song is not in it too. Then I have to come back and listen to this again.

[@k.g.m.254]

L. O. V. E. Is never a strong enough word for the creative work he produces.

[@wizardkiu]

[@gingerisevil02]

Oh that's cool. Two of my favorite artists I didn't know they worked together

[@mattyj5751]

This is so damn good, wow. I oddly and specifically like how Jon says the word "ground."

[@vipreoptic4218]

Wow, amazing guys. I wish this was released officially.

[@VinaVerde]

The last time I knew your singles were years ago (in Enchanted movie) and I never heard of you again so I thought you have stopped in music industry. But I just found out you're still doing it.. and this duelling piano amazed me.. I really like this collab and the piano playing. So nice... I really hope worldwide will recognize you more..
