Last week, Jimmy Fallon shared an anecdote on “The Tonight Show” about how a trip to the hardware store to get a new light switch wound up changing the life of a struggling singer-songwriter.
While in the store, Fallon heard a song that grabbed his attention. Using the Shazam app, he and discovered it was Thad Cockrell’s song “Swingin”, a single from his album If In Case You Feel the Same.
Fallon instantly fell in love with the track. “It had this George Harrison-y feel, or ELO, Jeff Lynne-type of vibes,” Fallon told Rolling Stone of the song. “I just stood there and listened to the whole song.
I was mesmerized… I just kept listening to it. It’s a great song to crank in the car on the way home.” RELATED: Jimmy Fallon Joined By Alison Brie
