- Christone "Kingfish" Ingram covers The Leaves/Jimi Hendrix, Childish Gambino, and Lil Nas X as he performs Hey Joe with snippets of Redbone and Old Town Road - live at the Southern Cafe & Music Hall in Charlottesville, VA on 8-31-19
There were maybe 150 people at this show, and now over a million have seen this video. That is absolutely wild to me. I had never filmed at a show before and any audio I had ever tried recording sounded like death. The fact that this came out so well is a miracle. I'm glad so many people have seen this and, in turn, have supported Kingfish's music by buying an album or concert ticket. Be sure to follow him on social media so you can stay up to date on all things 👑🐠
Dam lucky 150 people!
I'd travel to the North Pole to see the show!
Lord Almighty~
Outstanding
Outstanding show, Joe! Thank you for giving all 1,045,410 of us (so far) the chance to experience this soulful vibe with you. From Canada 🍁🍻🎸
Thanks Joe 🙏 you are the Man!
Thanks so much for sharing this. Definitely subscribing to Kingfish

laughing out load bro
Notorious J.I.M.I.
this video deserves more views. 20 year old sings with the soul of a 70 year old bluesman
Kingfish is currently the best bluesman on earth and beyond.
@@FilippoBombonato Dem Fish L::P
I wouldn't say soul. His voice is too pristine to be soulful, those old blues singers sound rough and raw and hoarse. He just sounds like your average American idol contestant or church singer
@@PHELCAN what a bad thing envy is!!!
Not just this one man, here you have another guy of 18 with the same music taste
That bass player is on point. Great live tone. The whole band is great.
I think that's Paul Rogers on bass
👍 yes he is. And damn does it take a good bass player to keep up with something like that. 👏 😮 👏 😮 👏
I was thinking the same thing. I know a lot of people are coming on his guitar playing and is singing, but just a drummer and bass behind him! They are not getting enough credit by the people. That drummer is on fire and like you said the basement is on point. They are right in the pocket
@@jaimeastin I find it personally so much better, as far as a listening experience goes, and much more pleasing when you can follow all the instruments at once. That bassist has the magic touch, in the background when he needs to be, and loud and proud when he should be. Tone is amazing, and just sonically in tune. I could listen to that all day. And I mainly listen to METAL. As a guitarist myself I generally don’t focus on the guitar in the song too much, but what’s behind the lead that makes it sound extraordinary.
@@jaimeastin the drummer is Chris Black. Great guy. Incredible chops.
And now he has a Grammy under his belt
💯 deserved
Wait he does?
@@daggercatz7297 he won ‘contemporary blues album 2022’
Nice work young man!!!
Sheeeeeiiiiit.
Did not know that.
Badass!
The guitar and Kingfishes vocals are a match made in heaven or a deal made on a crossroad
Blessing to all of listening from god
What an F'ing beast!!
Def crossroad!
Legggeeeeennndddd
ha! the legend begins, eh?
Finally, a new blues star is here, he is amazing
This guy is only 22! He’s insane
I seen a college band cover hey Joe and cult of personality PERFECTLY. Better than this too. Even played the solo like jimi
Gary Clark jr is a true one tooo
@@michaelmitchell9255 by perfectly do you mean note for note? That for me doesn't necessarily mean better. I could just listen to the album if I wanted that version of the song, ya know? Hope you're well mate.
@@mankypancakes not note for note, but they made it thier own. I had to scream "and I gave her the gun!" On 'Hey Joe' but the singer totally came through. Cult was damn near note for note. Good stuff, my guy!!
The TH-cam algorithm is blessing my feed today
Me too!
I had to search for this shit man this ain’t fair
@@khersy stop listening shayte
All Hail our algorithm overlord!!
This is some of the CLEANEST guitar playing I've seen in a LONG time! My man absolutely KILLING IT!! This needs to be seen by everyone.
Totally clean...beautiful! Yeah, everyone should hear this...
That snap story during a solo was cold af
Coldest thing I’ve ever seen
This kid is in his early 20's? My God, the soul and dictation in this man's performance says much, much older. This is truly amazing!
*dedication
@@MrTubularBalls *annoying
He’s from Mississippi bro, that should tell you all you need to know ab his soul
@@MrTubularBalls no he meant dictation. The way he performs and translates his feelings into playing.
And his weight says he’ll be dead from a heart attack in 5 years.
Thank god this kid exists! A young man with so much talent truly keeping the blues alive! Good bless and thank you!
I agree. He is a Gift!

I gave him my first 5/5😅
I love finding newer videos of songs kingfish has already done just to see how much hes progressed and how spicy the tunes have become. When he started jamming redbone and old town road I just started laughing, this kid is something special.
In another video I have "Love Ain't My Favorite Word" he plays the old Nickelodeon theme and I about passed out laughing at that. He said he throws that in every show in hopes that someone asks about it
@@Bad__Scooter hahaha, thats amazing!
Absolutely amazing, let's give some cred to the drummer and bassist too, they were really in sync and on point.
Smokin' blues with a little reggae, contemporary pop and a touch of Frampton. That crowd was treated to something awesome.
Why can’t we get some real talent like this for a Super Bowl halftime show?
I’m sure you already know why.
I reckon aye, if it was 40 years ago maybe
It's ok remember this name guys I'm gonna bring good music back. Hold tight 😊
The NFL does not allow any actual musicians to perform, all super bowl performances are mimed / faked. Red Hot Chili Peppers talked about this back in the day…they wanted to play but had no choice.
Because the Artist has to pay to play there so you get these old rich has beens!
@@5urg3x Exactly, not to mention they only bring in the biggest names that’ll attract more attendees and viewers for money. The love of money is the root of all evil.
This kid is cold blooded....so much soul. Jimi would be proud of you young fella
He ain’t fat, he’s just full of soul.
and type 2 diabetes
This kid is already a giant. I agree has a hell of a good band, bass drums
I like a band that can improvise. Played with tons of bands that were so caught up in playing the songs note for note. This man is a legend. His guys do a great job of backing him up. Props to them.
I just cried happy tears. The confidence in this man is something I aspire to have. Still trying to learn how to play guitar like an angel, been trying to play with more of my heart. Thank you for this.
This performance makes me tear up, sends chills down my spine, and like the jacob said, needs way more views. Shit is epic!
Grow some balls john.
Naw buddy, we soft as counter butter when it comes to these good tunes! Your reply mad funny tho
@@johnhenry9271 hahhahaha
Dude is a certified master, dont think ive heard a better sounding cover of Hey Joe.
Uhm... jimi's?
@@dominikweber4305 cover*
@@MarshallarthurrJimi's IS a cover
Yo wtf??? I've never heard of this guy. God damn! This dude oozes blues from every pore. Killing it!
And a bit of grease as well.
This guy is the real deal
The Bass Player is the BOMB. Nowhere to hide in a Blues Trio, and this Rhythm Section is just so musical, solid , and in the pocket throughout!
An absolute face melter. I love this dude's playing, what a real talent. Let's not forget that backline holding it all together. Man, I would have killed to be there for this.
WOW. This dude is AMAZING. At such a young age he's got the potential to be a BLUES LEGEND.
This kid is not a "one-trick pony". He’s the real deal and I hope he’s with us for many years to come. "Kingfish" is King! 😎🤘
I had the privilege of seeing him open for Buddy Guy a week ago. Kingfish is a legend. I love this Dude.
the thing i love about ingrams playing is the hints of jazz lines he puts in his blues licks. they fit so well and they’re a very unique thing.
My mans has tone even in his name. Born to do this
he's amazing
He males the guitar talks.
Guitar nerds like me over here geeking out on all the tone changes
Full blown geek out😎🤙
Truth
Seeing that Les Paulecaster (?) in the thumbnail got me. Had to watch the vid just to see what kinda info I could gleen about that thing. Then homie just melted my face. I don't know why the algorithm chose this specific video to suggest, but I'm fucking glad it did.
My guitar teacher told me once that people were not "better" than others, they just practiced more. He was wrong.That was 20 years before this kid was born, and 40 years later, can't even touch this in my wildest dreams. Kingfish has pure innate talent that I'll never have. Every note was perfect. Not just played perfectly, but it was the the note that HAD to come next.
@@BobMobber Ascribing this guy's skill to some inherent "talent" robs him of any agency in the chops he worked to build. Just because you've played longer doesn't mean you've practiced for more hours or more effectively. The guy worked hard to sound as good as he did - don't take that away from him just to reconcile why you're not as good as you want to be.
Some of the best bass playing Iv ever heard!
Beast of a band, incredible guitar playing, singing, kick ass bassist and everyone is just going with the flow like true musicians. Takes serious talent do a song like this justice and put your own spin on it and absolutely murder every part. Probably one of the best covers of this song since Hendrix himself played it.
How have I not heard this kid before? Extraordinary talent.
Love me some Kingfish.... perfect soulful voice with a badass guitar technique. But damn, let's also give the bassist his flowers too... holy shit those lines be slappin'!
Next paycheck, Kingfish, I'm buying music from you.
He is 100% legit. Especially live
I could listen to this young brother all day! Huge talent!!
Bruh! This dude ain't no joke!
this guy is incredible
No fucking' doubt. Heaven in a guitarist's fingers...
This man is a BEAST. Jimi felt this one...
3:18 that switch up was smooth ☮️💚👏🏾
Caught him playing a few weeks ago. Astounding performance. This young man is a true virtuoso.
man, that solo is delicious. So soulful and not just for show, like the guitar is pissed off and singing
I've consumed a LOT of content over the history of TH-cam, a great many of which being talented guitarists. Trust when I say you've definitely got the stuff man. Technique is always good to have but your sense for intonation is absolutely killer. The only reason you haven't blown up is chance. I have no doubt that you will.
Blues is not as popular with this generation as it was years ago.
@@UnseenEternalStudios really all it takes is a good marketing team.. but you’re right this guy seems like he’s right in his element with the small show vibes
@@UnseenEternalStudios you've experienced the fame have ya know Mr. Asswater?
This was excellent, need more real music like this in the world again. This man plays and sings like the legends did.
Now we're talking!
Aku mau ngomong, tapi gabisa ngomong apa apa wkwkwk
mau ngumpulin org yg suka ngeblues 😁😁
Keep that talking to a minimum please, I'm trying to listen to this dude shred guitar
He's been talking. You asleep or something
Lets talk lol
Just rediscovered after 3 years god damn this shit fuego 🔥🔥🔥
Amazing....has the blues/soul down, and shreds like Eddie Van Halen.....simply amazing
Wow wow wow. What a talented man.
I never thought 'Hey joe' needed to be improved but guess I was wrong. !!
I could listen to this all day every day.
Wow, this dude has soooo much soul in his voice and somehow still feels true to the original
Holy poo .. who needs a TV when there's magic like this on TH-cam 👏👏👏
That drummer and bass player are absolutely ridiculous amazong talent
Christone, Man you kill it! You’ve earned the right to be called the modern day Jimi, don’t let anyone tell you otherwise. Keep it alive!
This kid is amazing. He deserves massive credit.
bb king + jimi hendrix this is what u get this musical beast🔥
Whoa. Gave me goosebumps. I was digging it than he started to sing and than it gets even better. The world needs more soul music!
Same here, so much soul
The world needs your soul?
I can't imagine how many thousand of hours this young man practiced playing the songs I love. I can't get enough
Hendrix would play with the guitar behind his back. This dude plays while taking selfies. Great stuff.
It makes me desperate to see someone as good as this live. Hopefully soon...
He tours, but if you can make a trip to Mississippi for a few days in April, the weekend of the 23rd I think, I will guarantee you will not be disappointed.
Man where I'm from you used to be able to go on a certain street and pick what flavor you want..things have changed now..
Brilliant, go for it young man. Much respect. Love from England 🇬🇧
Made this song his own this kid . Impressed 👍🎸
Jimi Hendrix would be blown away by this young man..
I don’t know why this video affects me so deeply, other than it is simply fucking awesome. This is a specific moment in time that will never repeat itself.
This is pure soul. This guy rocks.
Mr. Ingram here has soul. Theres great power behind his playing. He has a bright future ahead of him.
Saw this kid live. He kills it.
Every hair on my body just stood up!!! Thank god for guys like this. I’m in!!!!
dude might be my favorite guitarist
I need to see this man perform. What a treasure.
I don't know if this kid was made for this music, or this music was made for him. It's been a long time since someone expressed soul through a guitar like this. Wow.
He’s incredible!❤
Oh man the soul in this man WOW
This man is a national treasure!!
His voice just melted my mind! It’s beautiful!
I love this kid!!! Kingfish is amazing! God bless him! He’s such a nice respectful person as well, kinda reminds me of BB King! A totally class act!!!!!
I love that lick from 2:07 - 2:11 .. I know it's a standard blues pentatonic lick, but he plays it so damn smooth. Wish I had the tab for that.
Me who can’t play even this pentatonic lick :Ddddd
That's the wrong mindset, can't pull it off if it's from the memory and not the soul
Try learn by ear I reckon.
@@Daniel-ox1sb
Pentatonics have been practiced by literally every legend. Quit it with the pretentiousness.
@@KC-bg1th bruh I'm not saying to not practice pentatonics, I'm saying reading licks from a tab is not a good way to learn to play blues
Omg. This kid single handedly resurrected the music industry.
He has a fan for life now.
Saw Christone in Sydney last night. I always thought he was bloody good but man - he just blew us away at The Factory Theatre. The Bluesfest crowd won't know what hit them. Now I can finally have my "I saw a future superstar when they first toured" story ...and only a week after he won his first Grammy.
Thanks Kingfish for keeping the blues alive. I can't wait to see what you bring us in future.
Unimaginable talent! What a divine master!!
Crazy how there’s people who get rich and famous off doing stupid tiktok dances yet amazing talent like this goes virtually unnoticed. The world we live in today makes me sad sometimes man….
This is so outstanding..I've never seen him perform like this
This made me smile more than I am used to.
I watch this weekly
Wasn’t expecting him to go into redbone. Dope and love him jazzing things up a bit too. Love
Beautiful! He really puts his heart into his performances! Love to hear how much it touches the audience too.
Man I love this guy !!!
Thank you TH-cam algorithm gods for this kid showing up on my feed. He’s an amazing guitar player.
I don't always download the audio from a YT video, but when I do it always means that I found something amazing 🔥🔥❤️🎸🔥🔥
Dude is the epitome of just badass cool. Great talent and soul in this man.
What a great man and band. Kudos!
absolute legend, been seeing this guy everywhere recently and I hope I continue to see him everywhere
Love that reggae break!
My Clarksdale homeboy. I’ve been watching him since he was 12 or so. He was a child prodigy. I’m very proud of him! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
What state?
Beautiful, tasteful, articulate, impressive playing from anyone, especially one so young, kudos
Wow! Best I've seen in a long time.
This was outstanding! So much soul , this man knows why those notes need to be played . The drummer and bassist really driving well to, great ensemble . Glad the algorithm brought me here , such a good composition
Where tf do I even start??? The musicianship... the finesse... the showmanship... the control... the voice... the pick flip into the crowd at the end... ... ... ...
This dude is destined to be one of the greats.
Bro is shredding on the guitar and singing is heart out!!!!
