Watched this during class, coolest cats I’ve ever heard live

[@elijahlee-u9q]

I got to meet a couple of them, and man their playing along with their humility completely changed how I approached my craft... great people and even greater players

[@ЛераЛера-з7и]

Music like this keeps me alive. It's a great job, guys! Thank you ❤

Possibly the best EE performance ever. Up there with AMP in 2013 and Dillard in 2011.

This band got shafted, I don’t understand how they didn’t win their third in a row.

Maybe for starting with something not by Ellington?
Just saying/asking.
