Anderson .Paak and Bruno Mars, who released the Silk Sonic album ‘An Evening With Silk Sonic’ back in November 2021, are currently in the middle of a Vegas residency at the Park MGM, with a pair of shows having taken place over the weekend (August 12-13).

Footage of .Paak leading the vocals has since emerged on social media, and you can watch a selection of fan-shot clips of Silk Sonic’s unlikely ‘Last Resort’ cover below.

According to columnist John Katsilometes, Silk Sonic also covered The Outfield‘s ‘Your Love’ and The Police‘s ‘Roxanne’ during their Barbershop appearance.

Back in May, Silk Sonic covered Con Funk Shun’s ‘Love’s Train’ at the Billboard Music Awards 2022. They’ve since added a recorded version of their cover to ‘An Evening With Silk Sonic’.
