Astronauts Etc. – “Rocket Man” (Feat. Toro Y Moi) (Elton John Cover)
Astronauts Etc. is the project of Toro Y Moi touring keyboardist Anthony Ferraro, and he’s putting out his debut full-length next week — though it’s streaming in full now, if you want to listen a little early — and it make sense that he’d team up with Chaz Bundick to hype up the release. So they got together for a cover of Elton John’s “Rocket Man,” one of his best and most enduring songs. All of Ferraro’s tracks are smooth as fuck, and this is no exception — check it out below.
Astronaut Etc.’s debut, Mind Out Wandering is out 9/18 via Hit City USA.
