That was 8 minutes of Intense, High Quality Drumming.....WE see the finished product.....and many times we FAIL to realize how much work it took to get to her level! Thousands of Hours!! Great Example of great work ethic and passion for drums! It is a JOY to watch you play! Many Thanks to you Hannah!
I worked a few events with her and she is the most wonder person. So positive, encouraging, and inspirational. It was obvious at the time that she would reach the top. And SHE DID! I still wish her the best. (I hear she's a mom now!)
It's soooooo crazy watching this, and then going back and watching the original video of Hannah playing this song in the studio when she was 19, and seeing how much her pocket and her technique has reaaaally gotten so much better over the past 10 years or so. This is incredible and still one of my favorite songs to jam out to, I'm looking forward to seeing where she goes from here! :)
holy moly - the most complex stuff to learn and master, like, ever.... I'm absolutely blown away.... one of the true top drummers in the world right now... and just loves playing anything, no matter what style of music it is..... but this is the most complex jazz fusion I've heard her play so far, and it's just ridiculously perfect and musical and with exceptional technique and her personality and energy are winners
Wow! Hannah HAS the full suite of skill-sets: cross-genre' influences, solid rudiments, a solid rock/bad-ass foundation, and the ability to PLAY-....anything. #Kudos
ma è hannah ford! perchè qui si fa chiamare welton? comunque resta sepre una straordinaria interprete del jazz e bravissima batterista oltre che splendida figa!!! io l'adoro!
A lot of female drummers hit so heavy with their forearm so stiff. Looks so loose at the same time with the wrist like floppy but it definitely makes for more stick clicks when moving around the kit or misses like hitting the ride instead of floor tom. I think one of the few who doesnt is Anika Niles and that Japanese drummer thats everywhere now. Good drumming no doubt about it, just the wrists and heavy forearm playing driving me crazy lol
In a very recent interview with Sweetwater she said that she uses Gretsch USA Customs. But she started on a Renown Maple kit at 14 years old and still has that kit at home ... and still uses it for practice there.
Barely average. If you want to see really Master Class female drummers, you have to put your eyes towards Japan. e.g. Senri Kawaguchi and the unmatched Kanade Sato.
Yes. Maybe. But she has a great technique but a lack of spontaneity. And above all: the music is terribly boring. Nevertheless she's a good drummer and maybe an Artist in the next few years.
I hate to hate but This woman is almost 30 years old. She is only on youtube because she is a pretty woman. I saw a 13-year-old girl Mia Morris shred much better and she's only been playing 3 years. If you wanna be pretty join a beauty pageant but as a drummer shes not even mediocre.
Dominick, you have got to be kidding. You must be a dude drummer who is jealous that a chick drummer can be this good. On top of that, you are super sexist. So male drummers can be good looking, but females can't? But I digress...Mia is great yes, but jazz drumming and timing like Hannah's require years of practice and special talent. I am a female drummer myself, (not bad looking by the way), and have heard all the comments...why don't you smile more......why can't you play something feminine like the flute.....etc. I'm a born drummer/percussionist down to my bones, but it takes dedication and practice to get really good, like her. I am blown away by her. I shouldn't even be replying to your comment due to your level of ignorance, but as a female drummer, I am incensed that there are people who think this way and have no appreciation for a real talent who just happens to be be beautiful. ("Wanna be pretty, join a beauty pageant......really?). By the way, you obviously haven't noticed that there are innumerable females who have brains, talent, and beauty as well.
I get where you are coming from man but think about it this way. There aren't a ton of professional female players out there like there are males. So I think you need to take the "looks" idea out of your mind. Sure she's not a ground breaking technical player, but she's a pro (and there aren't a ton of female pros) and has a pretty impressive career so far. That is why she is involved in pasic, not because her looks and here's hoping she inspires a generation of girl drummers to step up and play at or above her level.
Literally tons can do this, and much better. Sorry to put it bluntly but she isn’t an exceptional drummer by ANY means. Watch Anika Nilles and come back.

The finest Lady drummer......hands down. Technique, creative, quick, and enjoying herself every minute !
Before today I had never heard of you. Tomorrow I want to hear all of you. Joyously impressed and transported by your presence.

Everything she plays sounds the same!
Love your set. That snare sounds fabulous. The kind of sounds that I prefer🤘😎🤘
pretty sure it's a Gretsch Brooklyn
One of the best female drummers..love her technique..you can teach me Hannah anytime. 😊

Your dynamics as a player are some the best iv ever heard. WOW a drummer like that is every singers dream for a rhythm section.🤘😎🤘damn

Brava! Great timing and technique and really nice orchestration bass drumming here 3:17
Oh how i love Hannah
Wow! Beautiful algebra!
I’m impressed
Great she is. i am a 80 year old drummer, jazz.
Just fabulose.....
Omg excellent
Very impressive! How long it takes to learn to play a music like that without reading the partiture?
Very nice
This is awesome but what the hell is the recorded track, who wrote it, who's playing on it?
Super talented!!!
i can see why Prince chose her to be in his band
me too::)

she is good
What an Excellent Drummer ...

What song is this? It's funky
A lot of female drummers hit so heavy with their forearm so stiff.

I think one of the few who doesnt is Anika Niles and that Japanese drummer thats everywhere now. Good drumming no doubt about it, just the wrists and heavy forearm playing driving me crazy lol
How about Caplette?
what, using more forearm for accents and louder playing is normal
@@PeterEnis69 It's "normal" in the sense that many are doing it, but it's definitely not necessary. It really is all in the wrist...
She's still one of the best out there.... you dont get to tour with Prince if you aren't.
What snare drum is she using? Love the tone of it.
Looks like a Gretsch Renown, the matching snare from the kit.
Yeah, and I think that it’s 14x6.5
In a very recent interview with Sweetwater she said that she uses Gretsch USA Customs. But she started on a Renown Maple kit at 14 years old and still has that kit at home ... and still uses it for practice there.
@@bomccarty4826 She used a Gretsch Renown with a matching snare at the PASIC 17 show.
@@JakeStaffin I agree with you on that. I was just saying what she said that she uses now.
I would like to hear some dynamics... Its all just loud and louder.
Awesome as usual but the mixing for the video needs work, couldn't even hear the cymbals
Blonde girl having fun
Yeah pretty cool, nothin like anika niles though
why welton instead of ford?
Married Joshua Welton. Fanpage: facebook.com/hannahweltonfanpage/
truly the female neal peart!!!!!!! from rush.
Have you seen Cindy Blackman or Sheila E or Terry Lynn Carrington?
Still clean as ever... and slightly boring.
i like her more as a blonde !!
Barely average. If you want to see really Master Class female drummers, you have to put your eyes towards Japan. e.g. Senri Kawaguchi and the unmatched Kanade Sato.
俺のバンドでドラム叩いて欲しい😎👍✨

Y'a vraiment pas de quoi s'extasier.
Dang her teeth sure are white !
So much arm flailing. Hurts to watch.
agree with you
Yes. Maybe. But she has a great technique but a lack of spontaneity. And above all: the music is terribly boring. Nevertheless she's a good drummer and maybe an Artist in the next few years.
SHES VERY GOOD LOOKING TOO BAD SHES MARRIED
シンバル多過ぎ～゜

Thanks PASIC for disagreeing with this guy.

Are you thick ? She's been in the business for years.... toured with Prince too.
@@jeangiersher2903 Just look at the pic this user is using. It's fucking hilarious how dumb he/she is.
fantastic drummer, horrific tune
pretty girl. I would watch her again if she learned to play.
THANK YOU. She should listen to more Anike Nilles to learn what an actual good female drummer is supposed to look like.
So difficult to play that progressifity, I wonder no other lady drummer can't cover it
Literally tons can do this, and much better. Sorry to put it bluntly but she isn’t an exceptional drummer by ANY means. Watch Anika Nilles and come back.
