Warren Haynes‘ latest album Million Voices Whisper arrived last fall, and on Wednesday the venerable Gov’t Mule guitarist dropped an intimate new video for “These Changes” featuring Derek Trucks. The album marked the guitarists’ first time working together in the studio since their time in the Allman Brothers Band, with the pair reuniting to help finish a song partially written by the late Gregg Allman (“Real, Real Love“).

The new video features just Haynes and Trucks, filmed in black and white sitting on a couple desk chairs in a sparse room. Gone are the drums, bass, and organ from the newly reactivated Warren Haynes Band, and all that remains are Haynes’ voice and both their remarkably clean tones. As Haynes sings his wistful reflections on the constant state of change, he takes the instrumental melody while Trucks, justifiably, plays lead throughout the song. Following the verses, the song becomes a lively back-and-forth instrumental conversation between the two modern guitar greats as they effortlessly alternate between lead and rhythm—throwing an Allman lick or two in the mix.

Three weeks after Million Voices Whisper hit shelves, Haynes and Trucks got the chance to play “These Changes” live at the SOULSHINE benefit concert for hurricane relief at Madison Square Garden. The marathon concert raised funds for those in North Carolina and Florida affected by Hurricanes Helene and Milton with performances by Dave Matthews Band, Nathaniel Rateliff & The Night Sweats, Goose, Trey Anastasio, and many more. Revisit Live For Live Music‘s rundown of highlights from the show here and watch Haynes and Trucks perform “These Changes” live below.

Warren Haynes is out on the road with the Warren Haynes Band while Trucks is gearing up for a massive 50-date tour with Tedeschi Trucks Band set to begin in May. Next weekend, they will cross paths once again on February 28th for the sold-out In Memory of Dickey Betts tribute concert in Macon, GA featuring members of the Allman Brothers Band family and beyond.
