Two terrific tunes get showstopping treatment from SMASH breakout stars!

SMASH stars Jeremy Jordan, Krysta Rodriguez and Andy Mientus reunited onstage at 54 Below for a special tribute to the short-lived NBC dramedy series last week in a hotly anticipated sold-out engagement titled THIS WILL BE OUR YEAR and exciting new video footage of the performers taking on tunes featured on the series is now available to view.

In the new clip, the trio tackle a mash-up of "The Way I Feel Inside" and "This Will Be Our Year", originally by The Zombies.

The official description of THIS WILL BE OUR YEAR was as follows: "In a one-night-only concert engagement, Jeremy Jordan, Krysta Rodriguez and Andy Mientus look back at their time on Smash and sing the songs that inspired the creation of their characters, as well as trunk songs from the "Bishop & Collins" songbook. Audiences can expect to hear songs featured in the second season of Smash, as well as contemporary classics from the musical theater canon and some of the pop/rock tunes featured on the show. In season two of Smash, Jordan, Mientus, and Rodriguez played burgeoning musical theater writers "Jimmy Collins," "Kyle Bishop," and an ambitious actress "Ana Vargas," respectively. The three actors have since starred in Hit List, the meta-musical from the second season of Smash at 54 Below last winter, and have continued to excel both on stage and screen while remaining the closest of friends. The evening reunites the trio with director Joshua Safran, who was the showrunner of season two of Smash, and music director Benjamin Rauhala, who collaborated with the team on Hit List. The evening was concieved by Rauhala and Safran, and is produced by Rauhala."

More information on the event is available at the official site here.

More details on the video are as such: "BAND - Justin Goldner (guitar), Alan Stevens Hewitt (bass), Shannon Ford (drums), and Benjamin Rauhala (music director/piano). Arrangement by Benjamin Rauhala. Filmed by Shoshana Feinstein"
