If you don’t have it you need to get David Ryan Harris‘s first solo CD. part of why he never made it as a solo artist is he is so talented and does music from so many different genres the record company didn’t know how to market him and what radio to play him on. I first saw David in 1989 in Clemson when he was a teenager. He was lead singer and lead guitarist for Follow for Now. I saw them in Clemson, Columbia, and Charleston probably at least a dozen times.
I’ve seen a lot of clips of Mayer just sitting in with people and hanging back out of the lights, just digging playing his guitar. He’s a thoroughbred musician and student of the craft. Love him for stuff like this.
@@eamonnw true, good point! There's a big dose of that too. I think the best way to summarise it is that the phrasing is quite BB King but the attack of the notes and some of the more aggressive licks like the 12th fret strumming are SRV.
He recently joined repeat SP vocalist Lizzy McAlpine (I think it was at the Troubadour too) so it's not as surprising as it may have been a few years ago. He's really gotten into interacting with other artists online, regardless of whether they've sold a million records or 1000.
@@BryceRogers_ I meant that a few years ago, it would be less likely for someone of his stature to join "unknown" artists as it is now after all musicians were forced to go online only for a year and a bit. I see where my phrasing was confusing because I wasn't quite sure what I meant when I read it back.
Drummer is incredible. He matched the soloist's intensity and feel so well! That's such a hard thing to do for live solos, but he caught Mayer's thoughts and shapes and helped it along. Mad respect!
Man, John Mayer is a virtuoso, even though you expect him to be good he keeps amazing you. This is how good he is. DRH X John Mayer X Scary Pockets = Winning combination!
Can't believe it's half of JMs band and at the same time they've been featured on Scary Pockets channel. Love these crossovers, what a time to be alive! And look at JM's joyful face when he plays that bluesy solo!
Hands down the best musician at “serving the song”. Adds his own spin, nice spice, not too flashy, and not over stepping, he just fills the space perfectly!
WTF! The grooviest groove on the Tube! Scary Pockets are a seriously class act and the ease of JM’s playing is off-the chart. I loved how everyone is so in the pocket and enjoying themselves yet giving space to their featured guitarist!
In every performance I've seen/heard of John sitting in with other bands, he's always been tasteful with his playing and respectful of the other musicians on stage. Think I remember hearing or reading him saying something about how much he enjoys being *in* a band, as opposed to leading one. It definitely looks like he's having a ton of fun whenever I watch him perform as a featuring artist.
@@philipprdawg337 duh but if i did that, the credits and stats won't go to DRH , JM or the Scary Pockets artist profile. While i enjoy their music, i think they must always get the credits :)
@@anexiole true, i only do it till it releases officially, so i can listen on the go and dont have to waste data for the video as i listen to it on repeat anywhere i go :D
This John Mayer guy's really got something, looking forward to following his career! Well done Scary Pockets for giving unknown musicians such great exposure.
when my son is born in March, this will be on replay forever. Maybe I'll try singing it to him, but I'll probably leave that work to the professionals lol
Beyond incredible that you guys have grown this to the point that DRH and Mayer are getting in on the action. Insanely good performance! Further proof that we need a full on JM jam band record.
2 of my favorite artists on one stage - amaziiiiing!!! 🤩🤩🤩😍😍 Cant believe you got John Mayer!! but I really hoped he would sing as well but since I saw that theres no mic in front of him, I just enjoyed his incredible precise guitar play 😭😄
Been following David since he was a teenager and the lead singer and guitarist for Follow for Now. August 1989 at TDs bar in Clemson. First time I saw him. Then went to see those guys probably another dozen times in Charleston, Columbia, and of course Clemson. His first solo album several years after the band is still one of my favorite records of all time.
if you can somehow ignore everything negative in the world, and then watch this on full volume - You can have some serious hope for the world to come WOW. "All is not lost" ~John Mayer
This lineup of musicians is absolutely bananas. You kidding me? Everyone sounds PHENOMENAL. Oh and ofc those guitar solos were some of the best ever. No surprise there from JM.
Just crazy 😜 about David’s performance singing “I got your back “ …of course I love 💗 when you are doing a solo and I love watching you play your guitar 🎸 cannot get enough of how you make your guitar talk and cry. There you have it 😂😂😂
Still listen to this everyday and everytime JUST GOTTA WATCH cuz its so pretty and impressive and so much vibing.... Hope you'll do more with John Mayer in the future
When you're mad at the world, and it's mad at you, And you can't get it right, no matter what you do. And they say that you're lying, when you're telling the truth, They won't be able to deny me, I'll bring the proof. Just as sure as the morning comes after the night, There can't be no darkness in the presence of my light. The moon forever pushes the tide, That's how I'll always stay by your side. Do what you do, I got your back. Just me and you, I got your back. When you're ready to give up and you just wanna cry, When you just want a break, and the world won't let you slide. The harder they come, the harder we'll try. Just rest a**ured that I'm on your side. Do what you do, I got your back. Just me and you, I got your back. When your back's against the wall, you know who to call. When they are trying to hold you down I'm gonna take you high. Nobody's gonna do you wrong, I'd love to see'em try. You're everything I'm living for cherie amour, you're mine and I'm yours.
See us LIVE with David Ryan Harris & John Scofield, November 16 at Echoplex in Los Angeles! Tickets: www.ticketmaster.com/event/09005D46CBA957C0
Seeing the Mayer-sphere, the Scary Pockets-community, the Vulfpeck and Snarky Puppy space coming together - the world is beginning to make sense.

Only thing missing is an official polyphia or abasi collab
so true!
Right on!
I’ve been a fan John’s for over 10 years and still everytime I hear him play I just can’t believe how good he is at guitar.
Bro right! It blows my mind seeing him live and seeing that guy rip it to pieces!
Yep... started listening to John Mayer in high school. Shit, that was **twenty years ago** I am old 🫠
@@mmmbetter55 I remember hearing "No Such Thing" in rotation on KFOG before anybody else was playing John's music.
Seen him live 5 times and I still lose my mind everytime

It's so cool watching him blend in as a sideman. He's a beast.
David Ryan Harris can melt butter with that voice!
Saw him live last night with Scary Pockets. A voice like velvet ❤❤❤
I love when John let's his SRV musical energy flood the stage
Yeah, me too!
He's done a few less bluesy solos recently, nice to hear him rip and shred a real bluesy solo again
I'm hearing more bb king

David Ryan Harris plays in John Mayers band a lot that's definitely the connection.
DRH has toured with John for over 20 years.
I love David Ryan Harris, and you got FREAKING John Mayer!! Love that John is popping up and having fun with different artists.
Ryan Harris toured with John for years playing guitar and backup vocals. Fun fact.. lol
DRH is basically one of John older/ biggest mentors
@@samandrewgale yup
@@nickjonesofficial yeah, it's still awesome that they got him.
I found Archie Woods on a TH-cam comments section! Archie and I played in a band in college. I love me some John Mayer and DRH.
That John kid has potential. Hope he sticks with it
Haha!!
I mean, he’s no Mayer, but yeah…
Dude's got potential, would probably sound better if he played a Fender though 💀
Super original. Great joke!
@@NuclearOpsAirsoft Thank you!
Drummer is incredible. He matched the soloist's intensity and feel so well! That's such a hard thing to do for live solos, but he caught Mayer's thoughts and shapes and helped it along. Mad respect!
Mayer and David Ryan Harris refuse to work with drummers who aren’t incredible
That's what any decent drummers does.
Scary Pockets always get stellar musicians, and Lemar Carter is no exception. He's a great drummer!
please do not underestimate the "legendary" Lenny Castro on conga's!!!😎🤩
jacob and now sp. mayer speedrunning collabs with my fav artists
I love how David Ryan Harris has kept his own sound!! I love how he and John respect each other's musical uniqueness.
what a line up! Goldings, Mayer, Castro, Lerman, DRH, Hurley... W O W
Don’t forget jones is fantastic as well. Wish this could be the band forever.
Wow I didn't realize that was Lenny Castro on congas. Love his playing
@@BanBanChi yeah he was also there on John’s sob rock tour, and you can hear him on the studio recording of last train home I believe
Man, John Mayer is a virtuoso, even though you expect him to be good he keeps amazing you. This is how good he is. DRH X John Mayer X Scary Pockets = Winning combination!
David's vocals are seriously on-point. Such a nice texture.
John mayer and t he pockets? A dream come true

Hands down the best musician at “serving the song”. Adds his own spin, nice spice, not too flashy, and not over stepping, he just fills the space perfectly!
Isn't it so interesting how similar the timbre of voice between David and John is. No wonder they mesh so well
Exactly what I thought !!!
Mayer supporting his bro Ryan is something really lovely to see. How the turn tables.
My dream to see John playing with Scary Pockets just came true and it's way better than I have ever imagined!! This is amazing!!!
His voice control is outstanding
Love to see John and (basically) his touring band members come together and support DRH!
Scary Pockets and Mayer with David is a band worthy of massive tours.
WTF! The grooviest groove on the Tube! Scary Pockets are a seriously class act and the ease of JM’s playing is off-the chart. I loved how everyone is so in the pocket and enjoying themselves yet giving space to their featured guitarist!

john is everywhere these days, i would have never thought back in 2000 that he would be such a great musical chameleon some 20 years later.
I’ve listened to this 14 times today and I’m still not satiated. I want more!
In love, 4am girl. And on the bus, from HB. Life is good for this girl.❤
First time I think 🤔🧐 and see John So good and a same time soo good time and enjoy the this blues soul masterpiece
Prolly been watching this 20 times already yesterday. Hope this comes on spotify soon!!! Keep rockin' , guys !!!

Everyone posting about a John Mayer and I’m just glad to have another awesome DRH video.
His singing skills are otherworldly
Jesus said, I am the Way, the Truth, & the Life. That's our real Nucleas to revolution from. Yup, He's got our back.
Fact: this song, this channel, this everything is too good to only have 91 comments.
SO MUCH YES! 😎
You'd sound epic through that vibroverb!
This is crazy good. That stage was so full of talent I don't see how it held up. Fantastic video. Thanks guys
What a collab! Love how John just goes to these smaller venues and just kills it.
Ryan & Jacob Luttrell are 2 of my favorite voices! This is magic!
So damn good. I want the whole concert, I want the album. I would pay for that. Let's go Pockets!
David Ryan voz dos Deuses.
Que bem fica David Ryan e o Maior John Mayer. Que Dupla!!!!
I love a random video where Mayer is sitting in as a fill in. Dude just loves playing music. It's so cool to see.
Such a fun jam!! DRH was nailing the showmanship (and of course the lead vocals)
I've never liked the phrase, '... blows me away ...', but this guy's voice BLOWS ME AWAY, wow!
This John Mayer guy's really got something, looking forward to following his career! Well done Scary Pockets for giving unknown musicians such great exposure.
Where had you been all these years, dude @chiupacabra? Or, was it a sarcasm?
This guitar player is a monster Man
you can see some SRV influence there.what a treat!
I miss SRV when I hear music like this.
American Culture at it's finest. Text book guitar solos by Mr Mayer.
I can’t help but think that this is DRH’s song to John and John’s song for DRH. Beautiful!
Who else liked before watching!!😭🤣🔥👏
This is an All Star Band. These are like my top 2 artists in each position
What a vibe! Can’t wait to see what John does after Dead and Co.. sad to see it end but excited for what’s next! Maybe some new Trio...
when my son is born in March, this will be on replay forever. Maybe I'll try singing it to him, but I'll probably leave that work to the professionals lol
Until then, DRH has you covered.

Would love to see John play in the 3am funk dance party
Here is Why John Mayer kick ass!
Damn…outrageous guys! John is a freak on that thing…LOVE IT
He’s one of the best for sure🔥🔥🔥
This Mayer-guy seems to be a good guitarist to have in one's band. If he'd noodle a little less, that is.
He’s got potential but I don’t know he’s got what it takes to really make it though.
Just a Clapton ripoff. Slowhand would probably hate him.
@@jamesa.7113 Oh yes, Clapton. That totally original guitarist who never ripped off anyone.

DRH’s vocals are always so buttery. 😊

this song is so technically beautiful
Mayer really is one of the best
Yyeaaahhhhh !!! Soooo smmooooooth ❤
JUST CAN'T WAIT to see you in Europe, guys and girls !!
John, please come also. There must be some space for you too.^^
Personally, I think John Mayer is the best guitarist of our generation.
No question about it. The last 8 years with Dead and Company, took him to the upper stratosphere level.
What a treat!! Thanks, DRH for your great voice and for the group for the great compilation. And of course, thanks, JM for showing up to shred!
Just…so cool, so good! thank you!

What an assembly of cool & talented musicians vibing!
Pure Joy
Vocal mastery. Guitar solos pretty good, too. 😜
Scary pockets never dissappoint and John Mayer is already a guitar god always 100% in the mood of the song.
The dream team right here! Is there anything better than DRH's falsetto?! Yeah, Scary Pockets + JM + DRH! More of this concert please!
Finally jm played with scary pocket. So cool.
I hardly ever go to live music, but I’d love to have been there.
Just discovered this group and song. How is this not an audio file yet?? This is off the chain!!!
