"Chris Cornell was a brilliant vocalist and communicator. He often used his voice like an instrument, shaping the tone of his voice like a guitarist would finesse riffs and phrases. I took a deep dive into his magical sensibilities and came up with a multi-tracked guitar production approach that I felt would pay proper homage to his brilliance." -Joe Joe and KennyAronoff teamed up with Mark Menghi and King Ultramega to lay down some heat on their latest single "Be Yourself"! This track transforms Audioslave’s radio hit into a powerful instrumental tribute, while also raising critical funds and awareness for MusiCares, the Recording Academy’s non-profit providing mental health, addiction recovery, and emergency services to those in the music community. 🎶🎸🥁 Stream: Music video:
