Who the hell could seriously dislike this enough to give it a thumbs down? Jealous much? To those who say they play too fast or need to somehow improve...you do realize that the oldest kid in this band is 14. Most musicians don't pick up an instrument for the first time until they're about this age. The kid in the banjo is TEN for krissakes! If you gave this a down vote you need to get a life...seriously.
Crap rappers
the left, why?

So endearing how the older brothers looks at his younger brothers and smiles.
thank god someone is still teaching "real music" to our kids...... unbeleivable
This is great bluegrass. I play banjo as well but regarding your statement real music, all music is real to the right listener. I love Bluegrass, folk, rap and heavy metal they are all real to my hears.
They may not understand totally how wonderful it is that they are brothers---and have this together in the family. All the best boys, you do good!!
My brothers and I have been working together for 42 Ys it seems like yesterday my dad started our automatic transmission garage we get along great with my son who is with us GOD , I'm lucky 🏁🔧⚙️🔩🗝️😇 P S Thay understand!
bruce werner. Why shouldn't they understand ? Aren't we a bit condescending here ?
Louis Edwards Sounds like all a man could ask for!
They're a great Trio.....all 3 excellent musicians.......just great coordination amongst them!
I can't get enough of these guys they are remarkable
I've followed these guys for a couple of years, and I did *not* know they'd done this performance at Ted. Flawlessly done, as I've come to expect from them.
As incredible as ever. For under 16 year olds they are FANTASTIC
Absolutely fantastic! I'd listen to them all day and any day over 99% of the crap on the radio. These kids play with heart, such raw talent! Well done lads!
All three are absolutely brilliant musicians! But the kid playing fiddle is the AWESOME! Best musician up there, IMO.
They are ALL awesome.

Jack D. Ripper yesssssssssss
I love the sleepy man banjo boys. They're awesome.
They do it with such ease ......I would LOVE to have that kind of talent...
I don't know what to say, but outstanding.never in my life have i heard such beautiful music. Mitchell
Well, now, if _these_ guys can't lift your spirit, I feel sorry for you . . . . . I just _love_ these awesome brothers!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️💓
What a surprise to many how great these young brothers are!
Proof that good talented music crosses all genre preferences
3 very talented young guys, brilliant, keep it up boys, you'll go far.
We saw these boys at a Martin Guitar Owners Meeting and they were absolutely AMAZING !!!!
These kids are the real deal. I love em.
Their skills are unbelievable.
I'm not normally a blue grass fan but I'm addicted to these young men. So much talent.
Brilliant Guy's....and I like the way the big'uns look after the young'un.
THESE BOYS IS AWESOME. SO TALENTED. FANTASTIC.
Great to see young people with obvious brilliant skills.
Each time I listen to these guys, I appreciate Bluegrass more!!
I've been playing over 30 years and can only dream of playing like these kids.
They have the sweetest boyish smiles.
I don't know which I enjoy more.. listening to their music or watching 3 young guys that radiate goodness and wholesomeness. They obviously care and enjoy each other. Kudos to their parents what a great job your doing.
These boys can play! Love Bluegrass! Grew up on it!
These boys rock, masters of an American tradition. Kudos, and thanks!
FANTASTIC...Love that bluegrass...glad tradition is being carried on and enjoyed!!
That's where music begins!
If these guys come to Glasgow (Scotland) I WILL buy tickets!!
These kids are so amazing...I am VERY impressed....
Amazing, that banjo weighs a lot and that little dude handles it like a pro. Your all awesome.
Who says there has to be drums? There is no better music than bluegrass.
What's more amazing is that their mother popped out an entire band😜
This comment 😆😂🤣🤣🤣
Niesamowici artysci i tacy mlodzi, bravo!!!!
I'm not a fan of bluegrass but they are sooooo talented and I'd love to dance to them.
I still say how can one really dislike country music.....but love it's first cousin.......bluegrass?????
It is so awesome seeing young people taking to bluegrass don't give it up at all keep going at it
Amazingly talented! Grew up with grandfather and his friends playing bluegrass/tradition country music every weekend at his house, he would have absolutely loved this.
Efforts of Actor Steve Martin and many other artists to revive the *Art of Banjo Playing* has paid off .... today we have many a young banjo players. Look at the 10 yrs old young artist performing. I hope the same happens to the efforts of reviving the Art of Ukulele Playing. Good Luck to these Young Boys for their future.
And then I discovered that I loved bluegrass🙏🤗
These boys are AWESOME.
Great picking that's for sure. They are very good players. Thanks Boys !!!
Guitar player (Tommy) has the Tony Rice pick grip and economic style. Mighty good....
Amazing chops from all three of those boys..Wow!!!
You guys are awesome. We don't have blue grass down here in Argentina, but this style totally reminded me of that Back to the Future III dance for the clock tower inauguration. Very fun to listen too.
These kids are really good, enjoy listening to their playing. It just feels wrong when they say they are from New Jersey...lol.
Savants. All in the same family. What an honor....
About the name "sleepy man" - I heard them explain once that when Johnny was younger, due to the heaviness of the banjo, he would lay down on top of the bed, with the banjo on top of him, and learned to play that way, to compensate for the weight. As any banjo player knows, banjos are much heavier than guitars, due to the metal in them. Thus the name "Sleepy Man..."
Odd how sometimes a segment is 16 bars and sometimes it's 17 bars. No matter - this is wonderful music.
That's the way Clinch Mt. backstep goes
this sent shivers up my spine.
I been following these guys for awhile, most entertaining bluegrass I have heard since scruggs.. They are coming to the buckle festival in cincinnati in July 19th 2014. Btw, whoever commented about their name being sleepy man, WHO gives a crap what their name is??!!!! They are talented young boys!! Always got someone thats not happy with something, its their name, and yes they described how they got their name on the letterman show. So just enjoy the talent, and shutup! lol
Dig it dude. Tommy mixes in all kinds of influences - I hear Tony, Skaggs, Doc. Good to know there's some guys younger than me still learning the roots of the music :)
Even if you are not into blue grass music you have to give them top marks - they are Kids - amazing
I'll bet they play stuff like "Toccata and Fugue in D Minor" by Bach in their spare time. I'm astonished.
man you guys are great. what a band. Yes, for sure you must go on America's got talent
Absolutely smashed it.Ive watched these guys before . awesome.
At one point or another throughout the video I was thinking that each player was showing their true colors. An amazing harmony of switching the lead role from person to person. And dang can that boy pick at the banjo.
What can I say? Fifty years I've been a picker, learned one-on-one from THE one and only Jerry Garcia for a whole year when I was the age of these kids, then for many years taught banjo to hundreds of kids and grown-ups one on one, and by golly, sleepy man, are you gonna run circles around me? Damn you're good!! Sure I could learn a few licks from you. Just a thought: Have you pondered adding a mandolin and a bass player? Anyway, keep on pickin, I always love finding a new clip of you guys to feast my eyes and ears. All the best for continued success!
Just saw an interview where the oldest said the next sibling in line is working on the mandolin.

These kids were unbelievable the first time I heard them years ago. And being that it was Bluegrass when surrounded by rap and rock was even more impressive. I'm looking r new videos.
And you, wow learning from Jerry! Im sure that was tough being he played nothing the same twice. Lol.. I'm sure you have memories others dream of. Lately I've learned much probably most from TH-cam. Guitarists in bands I'd have never listened to before are now my heroes. If you ever play on here let mr know.
Forgive me I should have started with Hello and I hope you are all healthy and well.
Awesome young men - I love them
God given talent!!!
Wow!!!!!!!! F--ken fantastic they are grate I really don't think they no how grate they are !!!
Robbie Mizzone, the fiddler, is the head behind all this great music!!!!
I could listen all day long!!!
Goddamn that boy can pick a freaking guitar clean
I love the looks of encouragement from the oldest one.
Damn good banjo, violin and guitar playing ☺
That kid on banjo is 10!!!!
If Mr. and Mrs. Mizzone would be kind enough to favor these boys with a couple of little brothers, they could add a mandolin player and a vocalist and take over the world! :)
Made me laugh! But, boy, with a string of talent like this... the parents should see it there's more in the queue!
Love it guys, y'all sound And play amazing
That little guys banjo is almost as big as he is but boy he owns that thing! Awesome talent on that stage.
How did they grow up! Long ago I did not hear them-very talented guys perform !!!
Beautiful beautiful
Keep stringing boys!! You are on your way to a joyful life of bring lots of joy to others! Bravo!!!
Unbelievable... so young & so good

You boys are destined for great things.
Pay no attention to people who criticise just to deem some sort of meagre existence in this planet. These kids are incredible musicians and they would be at any age.
That'll get your motor runnin'! Best wishes to yall from Texas.
So refreshing. All the main stream garbage in the world today they call music. Nice to listen to something real. Great job guys
he smiles in the beginning. and besides, that's not at all easy, what any of them are doing. i don't know any kids their age who can do that. and if you really look at him, he's in the zone, he's totally absorbed with it
Boys are awesome...congrats to the parents.
TED stands for Technology, Entertainment and Design.
This is the entertainment part of that acronym.
Jonny usually doesn't sit... I hope he hasn't hurt himself or something. Excellent as usual guys!
I've just discovered bluegrass, AND I LIKE IT !!!!!!! a bass would go down a treat though, the future of these kids is a done deal already!!
Awesome kids,, wow they do so naturally,,,,I love it
I have never heard of this band. I never knew what I was missing in life until just now
Wow, these boys sure can play.
Probably one of the only thing you will ever see on Fox News and TED
Absolutely amazing!!!
Magnificent!
WOW! they are so talented
The music just rolls, 👍🏼
Feeling a bit like an under achiever right now
Phenomenal talent!
Yeah, New Jersey!
Put Them On The Stage In Nashville!
Last time three brothers from New Jersey played music to a crowd like that it was pretty successful ;)
