During his Apple Music Festival set, Sir Elton John performed a special set packed with some of his greatest hits, but one particularly special moment came in the form of two back-to-back duets with Gallant. The emerging Maryland crooner joined Elton on stage for a rousing rendition of “Bennie and the Jets,” making full use of his soaring falsetto to bring fresh life to the classic tune. The two also launched into a killer cover of “Weight In Gold,” allowing the two to riff off each other with impressive finesse. Check out footage of the performances below.
