Josh Dun (Twenty One Pilots) and Matt McGuire (Chainsmokers) Face-Off Mash-Up

Josh Dun of Twenty One Pilots and Matt McGuire of Chainsmokers posted a video of the two drummers joining forces in an amazing 19-minute MegaMix drum cover.

The two epically covered songs by Foo Fighters, Jay-Z, Red Hot Chili Peppers, A$AP Rocky, Paramore, and more. Dun and McGuire appear in the video shirtless behind their drum kits which are set up facing each other while maintaining social distancing. 

In an interview after the performance, Josh Dun talked about how they decided to collaborate on the drum mash-up, saying, “We thought it would be cool to do some older songs that were inspirational to us in some way or another – songs that we’ve played in the past, whether it’s in our parents’ basement or in a loft in a warehouse that we rented out somewhere.” 

McGuire added to the conversation, “When we were texting back and forth about what we wanted to do, we just said we will choose three songs each and pick the three songs that are a little bit iconic of what we kind of played back in the day. I remember that when you [Dun] sent through Underoath I was like, ‘let’s go’ because I absolutely love that band. One for me is Paramore, of course, but it was really cool to see the influences.” The two drummers revealed that they had met while on tour in 2014 and quickly became friends.
