Here’s The Wrong Trousers, a band of three very talented high school students Mack Leighton (bass), Kelsea Little (harp) and Joseph Lorge (mandolin), busking in Balboa Park, California, singing Video Killed the Radio Star.

WOW, I’m really surprised that more people weren’t standing around watching … unless the camera was in front of the crowd. I wonder how many bands have a harp player?

Oh, glory. That’s so great. Plus twenty adorable points for the Wallace and Gromit reference. 
I always wanted to learn the harp.

Who the hell needs a drummer or guitarist? This is the best acoustic version of anything I’ve ever heard.

Wow, that was awesome, I want to cover that song now on my Uke … need to find a theremin player and tubaist ……
The Mandolin player, has a great voice and music skills …. The Bassest has good timeing and the Harp adds a nice lyrical element ….
(just as some constructive critizism) Dont let that harp player sing without some lessons please…… the long sustained part at the end hurt my ears….kinda ruined it for me.
boof

just to let you all know, that isn’t mack in the video. that is brendan fitzgerald. mack was the original bassist but he had to quit for a while because of school or something so brendan was taken as a replacement for a while. i think mack is back in the band now though.
