A Stunning Acoustic Cover of Coolio’s ‘Gangsta’s Paradise’ on a Creatively Capo’d Guitar
Musician Luca Stricagnoli, who performs gorgeous acoustic versions of popular songs gave a stunning performance covering the Coolio song "Gangsta's Paradise". Using a specialized muting capo, Stricagnoli brilliantly captured each element of the song by tamping harmonics from the upper frets of his guitar, strumming from the lower frets and using a tiny microphone attached to his thumb to keep the beat with the side of the side of the guitar's sound hole.
