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 👑🐠
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
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.
@@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 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.
@@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.
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 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
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.
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.
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.
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.
I had seven u.s. tours as a professional guitar player at the ripe age of 24. Real recognizes real. Dude f****** gets it! Godspeed sir. You and only few can pull the sword from the stone. Old soul. Keep it up big man. You are single-handedly replacing lost love in people's hearts. All the while in honor of. Full Speed Ahead until it falls off the rails my man. You are an original. Much love.
I want to go to one of his shows. Im a big fan of this kid. Keep the blues alive kingfish. Keep it going for the next generation. Love to see younger players playing real music with real instruments. We are a dying breed and this gives me hope. Thank you young man.
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!!!!!
What’s the last new music you have heard of? Notice anything about it? True art isn’t allowed to rise. Only that toxic stuff pumped out to the masses meant to destroy our souls and keep us down. You won’t hear about the new artists that are lifting people up unless you find it yourself.
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'!
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.
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
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.
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.

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

Finally, a new blues star is here, he is amazing

Uhm... jimi's?

Why can’t we get some real talent like this for a Super Bowl halftime show?

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!
WOW. This dude is AMAZING. At such a young age he's got the potential to be a BLUES LEGEND.
Smokin' blues with a little reggae, contemporary pop and a touch of Frampton. That crowd was treated to something awesome.
I could listen to this young brother all day! Huge talent!!
Some of the best bass playing Iv ever heard!
That drummer and bass player are absolutely ridiculous amazong talent

That snap story during a solo was cold af
Coldest thing I’ve ever seen
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
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! 😎🤘
Bruh! This dude ain't no joke!
I had the privilege of seeing him open for Buddy Guy a week ago. Kingfish is a legend. I love this Dude.
Christone ... awsome and future of the blues legacy of great player ...
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.
Amazing....has the blues/soul down, and shreds like Eddie Van Halen.....simply amazing
Holy poo .. who needs a TV when there's magic like this on TH-cam 👏👏👏
Every hair on my body just stood up!!! Thank god for guys like this. I’m in!!!!
That's phenomenal when you are that great that you can add your own touch to it and still make it highly enjoyable.. Thanks..
Next paycheck, Kingfish, I'm buying music from you.
He is 100% legit. Especially live

Full blown geek out😎🤙

Brilliant, go for it young man. Much respect. Love from England 🇬🇧
Caught him playing a few weeks ago. Astounding performance. This young man is a true virtuoso.
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 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.
