BLACKTOP MOJO Team with DYLAN WHEELER for
Cover of AUDIOSLAVE “Getaway Car”
July 25, 2022 – Texas Rock Band BLACKTOP MOJO, led by front-man MATT JAMES, has teamed with fellow Texas vocal powerhouse DYLAN WHEELER to release their potent cover of AUDIOSLAVE’s “Getaway Car.” Inspired during the band’s 2022 tour, the vocal heavyweights teamed up upon BLACKTOP MOJO’s return, showcasing that Texas is fast dominating the New Wave Of Classic Rock movement!
“Dylan and Nathan were talking on the phone as we were rolling down the road on our spring tour and got to chatting about Chris Cornell. Dylan said, ‘Dude we should do ‘Getaway Car’ together.’ Nathan responded saying ‘Dude! We just started messing around with throwing that song in our set.’ We booked the studio right then and made it happen when we got back from the tour.”
”We teamed up with our buddy Dylan Wheeler to honor a mutual hero of ours on his birthday with a rendition of one of our favorite songs he ever made. Chris Cornell has inspired and will continue to inspire so many long after we’re all gone. ” – Matt James
“Getaway Car” will be available purchase and stream on all platforms July 27, 2022!
