If you know Michael Angelo Batio for his incredible electric guitar skills (sometimes with two and even four necks), this is going to be quite a surprise. The former Nitro guitarist has sung, played guitar (a Sawtooth acoustic and his signature series guitars) and tracked keys on a cover on the Nine Inch Nails track Hurt, made even more famous by Johnny Cash.
It's an emotive performance and a great fit for his voice too, with Drummer Rob Ross joining, as well as William Schneider on keys. Batio even adds an electric guitar solo at the end.
