One thing I love about Larnell is you'll never see him playing the same setup twice. He always knows exactly which gear to pick for the best sound. Never stop playing man
I think I've saw this trick before being performed by a guy called Lee Pearson (Spyro Gyra). He actually makes a pretty good solo and he uses some of this shenanigans to keep things interesting! Probably Larnell knows about him too, and that doesn't mean it makes it any less original and impressive. Just search for the guy on youtube, you'll probably like it!
So many elegant details in fills, so many screw-face appreciation moments, and then a behind the back floor tom fill... nothing but admiration for the way you craft your art man!
Larnell drumming is out of this world incredible but what's even more incredible is his ability to make you feel inspired and depressed at the same time. And seamlessly blurring those lines. Like you would be lying to someone if you said :"keep practicing because one day you could be this good. "
Happy Birthday Larnell my man! You are truly my biggest inspiration for drums over the past few years since I discovered you. Everytime I listen to We Like it Here, it just blows my mind. Loving all these solo vids you're putting out. Keep it up man, you rock big time!
You know at a certain point you realize limits....you sir have seen the limits and broken all limitations in regards to drumming....You are the man with the force now.....what you do with it is the real story that will cement your genius..... May the Ancestors ( Blakey, Roach and Tony Williams) guide your hands... Ase
Larnell Lewis Music Forcing the listener’s heart to skip a beat at 3:36 with a smack upside our eardrums - just to make sure we’re paying attention for the finish that’s to come. Theres some sort of rhythmic reset in the hair’s breadth of that momentary pause. Kudos, sir.
Play/perform like every time is going to be your last. Larnell, you accomplish this EVERY time you play publicly. God bless you bro and PLEASE keep gracing us with your music.
I love that he is very intentional in his playing and lets the music dictate not only what he playings, but also which piece of his instrument that he plays during that time. He's extremely musical!!
Happy Birthday, Larnell!! Thanks for inspiring us with your life and music.

For those who haven't watched it yet: Your body will try to keep your breath at 4:30, don't let it do it, keep breathing. Lovely performance. Thank you!
What is so enthralling about watching Larnell play....unlike a ton of other drummers who have to give you everything up their sleeve in a session, dude just gives us ONE! One, whole, entire kick ass drum trick, and now we've all forgotten our left from our right. The absolutely unfathomable reentry at @4:50 was unexpected already, then he slaps us all in the face with the behind-the-back-floor-tom-180 and now we're all messed up!! He is it, the Neo to our Matrix!
Larnell Lewis & Dave Weckl , two among my absolute favorites. Different, but same. Being in the music. Bringing, or rather pushing, the concept of playing drums (with accent on playing) to the next level. Don't play drums, but listening to Larnell (and Dave) gives me immense joy! Thanks for sharing :)
I have saved about five or six songs to my playlist and repeated them my whole 8 hour shift for this whole week, and I'm still mesmerized. Supreme beings are definitely on earth, and you are one of them.
So listening to Cobham, Corea, Clarke, etc in the 80s I recently stumbled upon that "Larnell learns a song" video with a meh attitude. Now I've been listening the Dutch session on here over and over. It's quite a feat to get me crying from pure delight, thank you!!
Dear Mr. Lewis! Without any doubt: you're one of my most authentic and original drummers and most esthetic rhythm players.. Your creative and refreshing style give me the pulse to breath and to dance to all of your lightful heart-energy. Thank you so much therefore. Love and peace on earth! Best wishes from my heart, greetings from Leipzig/Germany.
Amazing work, like your music. When I saw the notification, I immediately clicked on it knowing it would be another amazing masterpiece to bless my ears.
5:16 "I also hate it when I get a really bad itch on my back in the middle of a solo..." ... ... "OH! Behind the back floor tom!"
That was just insane.
I had to replay that part several times! So blown away at his gift and talent and hard work.
He listens ten times the amount he plays. Incredibly colorful.
Where did he say that could you share this video with me :)
He never said anything.
@@kiarashalimi937 ohh 😅

Facts.. I thought I was the only person who seen that ..
Are you playing with me?
Did my eyes see correctly at the end? He's just messing with us mortals now! Lol. Thanks bro!
You mean playing in his back with one of his arms ?? Yes I saw it too, insane !
I remember this from the drumeo lesson and I don’t understand how it got better than when he played it then 🔥
Yup. This is better. Idk how, but it is
Happy Birthday Larnell and thank you for serving us your gift without holding anything back. Love you big Bro 🇿🇦
Danko Mzansi💚
@@axixngolola4845 Danko means thank you

Cleaner than the department of Health,
Larnell is the real deal. Just an amazing drummer, and amazing human being. Thank you for sharing your musical talent with the world!!
Love the guy

The hang stutter at 3:22 is a widely underrated touch of class.
That hang stutter was tasty as hell.
Larnell drumming is out of this world incredible but what's even more incredible is his ability to make you feel inspired and depressed at the same time. And seamlessly blurring those lines. Like you would be lying to someone if you said :"keep practicing because one day you could be this good. "
One of the best drummers in the world, You Are Incredible !!!!!
Damn! 2:20 Pocket is deeper than Mariana Trench 🤩
I liked this before even listening to it. Who else here??? This dude is amazing!
Good taste
Larnell, you are a monster not a human for me!!!
@5:16 excuse me!? 😧😮🔥
😱
Woooow 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
I don't have to watch the video, I just sit back, close my eyes and listen to this wonderful human being..
Thank you for this sir.
Happy Birthday Larnell my man! You are truly my biggest inspiration for drums over the past few years since I discovered you. Everytime I listen to We Like it Here, it just blows my mind. Loving all these solo vids you're putting out. Keep it up man, you rock big time!

WOW.. I'M not a drummer.. but Larnell Lewis is Fire!!! one of the best drummer in the World!!
Aires always, my bday was yesterday and i was so excited when i found out you and i were both aries and your bday was after mine
I am addicted 🤣🤣. I will like to see him play in Nigeria
Happy Birthday, Larnell!! Thanks for inspiring us with your life and music.
For those who haven't watched it yet: Your body will try to keep your breath at 4:30, don't let it do it, keep breathing. Lovely performance. Thank you!
Daaaamn i think Larnell is the best out there
my reference, touches too much, I speak here from São Paulo - Brazil
for my non-portuguese speakers out there, "plays a lot" is written in the same way as "touches too much" in our language :)
toca muito!
What I like is the way he preserves his energy when he play , 80 % hands motion 20 % body movement
I love that solo line; not only the performance, but as a stylistic contrast to the rest of the song feel.
Happy birthday Larnell !! Big love from Japan🎉
That End bro... That was crazy
Good lord!😲
OMG the ending !!!
Happy Birthday big bro💫💥🥳
Bro🙆♂️I'm speechless right now 🙆♂️🙆♂️🙆♂️
Larnell is like the Michael Jordan of drumming. It's just mesmerizing.
Omg.... This guy is amazing... I can fall asleep listening to him. 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
Further proof that Larnell is the best drummer alive
Where is the Grammy when you need it!!
Genius musician ⚘✊
Happy BD!!!! Thanks!
Been rocking my LP! Go support the man while the song jams! Thank you for the fantastic music Larnell.
That arm behind he's back... bro... don't make us cry (of joy and envy at the same time XD)
Can't wait to receive this vinyl :D
FYI- Larnell, that comment is sincere --- you kill it brother! Really, really nice.
Larnell is one of the best out there doing it :)
Not just one of the world most incredible and best drummer, he is also a teacher with calm and loving personality. Thank you Larnell 💯
If I already had the biggest admiration, minute 5:16 ....pfff I don't even know what to say, to me, the biggest roll model in drumming to my life!!!
Beast mode
Happy birthday Larnell! You're awesome!

I don't let my son spend much time on TH-cam (he's only 1), but I gladly let him watch Larnell's videos!
DID YALL SEE THE BEhind THE BACK OMG WONDERFUL JOB Mr.Lewis

a beautiful piece and arrangement to describe the word "rejoice " i cant think of anything that can fit this word
Can't wait to listen to this everyday
