New World Man

The classic Rush song from the 80s is given an acoustic treatment, performed live in studio by Jacob Moon. Jacob uses a Roland kick pedal (SPD1) and a Furch acoustic guitar with Dimarzio electric pickups running through his pedalboard, and a Fishman acoustic pickup, as well as a mic'd sound using a generic LDC.
Thanks to my PATREON people over at www.patreon.com/jacobmoon for voting this one in and helping me make it.

Such a great cover! Especially loved the Xanadu riff at 3:38!

Please do the rest of rush’s catalogue. It is a great gift to hear you perform these.

[@jacobmoon]

K, working on it!

[@rafaelbarbieri2895]

I feel that song as my own history of life and dealing with my action....it's very meaningful to me. Watching you play touched me. Thanks for that and God bless you

Good Job ! Love it! Joel in Florida

[@DavidSiebert]

I have to say that you are about the only one that does good covers of Rush songs. You are wise enough to not try match their style but instead highlight the lyrics. Good job.

[@jeline55]

That was awesome! Loved the chord inversions at 3:01. Just great!

[@MrsMuir-yp7kw]

The Spirit of Radio is still alive. Loved it.

[@emergencydrummer]

You were my favorite performer at both events this weekend in Therold and St. Catherines! Your voice is so powerful, and some of your guitar vamp/jams reminded me of Trevor Rabin. I loved your song choices for Exit Stage Left, especially "Let Down" by Radiohead. What a "left field" cover for stage left! It was beautiful. Thanks for sharing your energy ~ The Emergency Drummer

[@edreichelseanintendocollec8758]

Awesome 👏🏼

[@jacobmoon]

Thanks 😁

[@elmoblatch9787]

Hell yes. Fantastic. I have checked out this artist's original stuff (Jacob Moon Trio) and this is one talented individual. I really should support him with the Patreon thing. It's the modern way to show appreciation, but I'm just not there yet.

[@matiassolstad4814]

Great version!

[@JamesBurksR]

Fantastic!

[@gafferanon]

Simply Amazing! 👍🏻😎👍🏻

[@ChicoMiceliChannel]

Awesome!!!!!

[@TheAnalogKid2]

As I recall, this was their last recorded song in the studio on the Signals album. Turns out to be the best hit of the album. You need 3D glasses to listen to this song. Without 3D glasses, you'll be listening to it in 1.5D.

[@jaygerson]

NICE!!!!!

[@carlerickson6163]

Jacob you are so inspiring. Blessings...❤️

[@joelsom]

Damn nice! You’ve got these RUSH covers down better than anyone. You’ve developed a real feel and understanding of the songs. Love it!

[@tiendiren]

Awesome man!!!!

[@missdragonfly73]

Another Rush song! Love from your friends in Mount Forest ❤️🎼

[@jacobmoon]

Charlotte White Thanks for watching Charlotte! Much love to you guys and I hope I get up to play there again soon. Let me know if there’s anywhere I should be inquiring about

[@MatheusAndrade-po4nj]

2112 ! 🤟🤟🤟💥💥💥

[@pearleelife]

First. Great cover!

[@77advisor]

I wonder what tuning he uses? Sometimes it sounds like some type of open tuning. Any guitar players want to chime in?

[@jacobmoon]

Drop to the D

[@riffhammeron]

How is it possible that you only have 4000 subscribers?

[@MatheusAndrade-po4nj]

Asking myself the same question... He deserves more than a million!

[@lenhindle1108]

Its a sacrilege for a Canadian to say this out loud but i think this performance is better than the original...👍

[@jacobmoon]

Wowzers! thanks Len!

[@77advisor]

Is he using an alternate tuning than standard?

[@jacobmoon]

Drop D
