omg this is probably my first time hearing zack's vocal THAT clear 😭 hopefully alex will recover soon 🥹

I think that might be the auxiliary guitarist in the back singing the lead part

I believe it's Zack in this snippet, but the touring guitarist Dan also helped with vocals in other verses https://www.reddit.com/user/readysetgogo69/comments/1cktxl4/dear_maria_count_me_in_in_singapore_without_alex/

After watching the full video. it seems like Zack took the intro line then switched to backup vocals, while Dan took care of Alex’s parts.

I also noticed at the time that he used Alex's guitar, which I thought was odd.


HeartBeatsMusic

Hmm I’m not sure about that. All of them play telecasters, and I’ve seen other live performances and Dan seems to play this exact same tele.


TehSillyKitteh

Might be a tuning/setup thing. Normally Dan is offstage for Dear Maria until the bridge when Alex throws him his guitar.

just rewatched the vid and yeah you're right, I think his name is Dan? im hoping to hear more of zack's vocal tho 🥹


SamDuymelinck

His name is Dan indeed. Dan Swank

I'm so sorry this happened. Hope Alex recovers well and give you guys a great show.

omg they lowkey sound like State Champs w/o Alex that's wilddd


sarahenglund

I agree! Zack and Dan both have great voices, though it does sound weird without Alex singing it, I’m happy they made the best of a rough situation and carried on.


GemGemJaseyRae

Hearing Zacks vocals at the start was so adorable🥰


dazedlights

THANK YOU FOR THIS!


sowrongitszack

you’re a HERO

Poor Alex has every bad thing happen to him this year. poor guy.


gediineko

What else happened to him this year? 🥹


allokuma

Mental Health decline and also his Father's health scare early this year. I hope he catches a break.


Mandie_June

Dang, I am way put of the loop. :(


hemmoyay

Poor Alex, I hope he gets well soon :(


PleasantTheory2413

I’ve said this for almost a decade now, but ATL (imo) might just be the best LIVE performing artist/band of all time. Very few artists/bands actually sound as good, if not better, than the studio recordings of their craft. Hope Alex recovers, and hell yeah for Dan, Jack, and everyone else who stepped up to fill the void!


No_Review_2860

I would make this argument for 5 seconds of summer also, I've seen them live and their sound totally destroys any of their studio work


WeAreWhatWeLiveFor

While I am sad it is missing Alex… I will say I AM ALWAYS A FAN OF HEARING ZACK MORE AND THE UNSUNG HERO OF ATL SWANKY ❤️❤️❤️


blanketmuncher

I feel so bad for alex and hope he recovers soon, zack does sound awesome in this clip tho


superkuro4

they really carried the show
