    It's good to see a black kid with a guitar. If it wasn't for black kids with guitars all them years ago, music just wouldn't be the same today. Coming from England it seems like everyone in the US wants to be a rapper. I love hip hop but I also love the soul and rhythm black American communities put into guitar. Same goes for singers. This kid has both and its refreshing to hear.

      what a ridiculous, lame ass comment. If it wasn't for Black kids with guitars? Are you F'ing kidding me? I bet you think Jimmi Hendrix was the best guitar player ever too right? You want to see a REAL guitar virtuoso who's barely 13 years old and a girl? Check out Lisa-X from Japan. No disrespect to Kingfish cause he's great but she'll blow the doors off of him

      SMASHBOXING there's both technical and soulful aspects to music. This dudes very soulful, which isn't really something you can practice, like you can practice to be good technically. It's like comparing an auctioneer (being LisaX) , to Nina Simone (being Kingfish or Jimi Hendrix).

      He started at 11 with drums and bass, so he had some musical background before he picked up guitar. But when you consider the musical prodigies that come from classical music he's considered a late bloomer. You're just impressed because of your own abilities?

    Great interview Nikki! You're one of the few interviewers that makes the interview about the person that's being interviewed. You're a great listener! Keep these up!! You should try to get Richie Kotzen, Ace Frehley, or Warren Demartini!

    Absolutely love it! All of the new musicians and musical prodigies that are coming forward,...each more younger than the other...
    Standing in legendary footprints left by the greats for them to follow and create a new path for the next generation....or possibly,the replacements for those who left us too soon and that will forever be irreplaceable. Nikki,... pull the cache of young people,and let them shine and showcase. Thanks brother,...wishing you and yours all the best!

    It's not only the great playing, he SOUNDS amazing. I am gobsmacked how this young man can just pull me right in with attention, like sliding down a winter hill. Hypnotic.
