Wild wallaby really appreciates the sweet sounds of this guitarist

When someone pulls out a guitar, the people around them usually pray they're not about to hear a cover of Oasis' "Wonderwall."

But this captive wallaby isn't most people, and lucky for it, the guitarist in question ain't no amateur.

When Nashvile-based Australian musician Joe Robinson came across the little critter, he decided to serenade it with a version of his tune "Uli's Jump."

The wallaby seems appreciative too, even enchanted. Maybe it's just thankful that it isn't going to hear a chintzy version of Red Hot Chili Peppers' "Under The Bridge" next.

Or maybe it just so happens to want the food Robinson gives it following the performance.

Either way, it's hard to pin a good wallaby down.
