I'm just sitting here wondering if anyone is as talented, or has ever been, as Jon Batiste? Ray Charles comes to mind? Any other suggestions? Please share!
He's amazing and his wife is beautiful, also nice to learn about his family background. I'm not surprised at all that he comes from a long line of musicians and incredible human beings. Thank you President Biden for bringing John Batiste to the White House!
Love reading all of the comments about Jon. He has such a pure soul and amazing talent. And to see his family with him - how special it must be for his granddad
So very happy for Jon Batiste. This cat is such a unique & beautiful being. I love his energy so vibrant. I watched him on Stephen Colbert show for years and he's like a fine wine. His jazz style is innovative...it just keeps on getting better with time. " Life is better on the sunny side of the street." A Singer's life...
This could not be more sweet and perfect ! To see his family be recognized for their gifts to our country 💙 his beautiful wife .. and the joy that always comes when this man is on stage 💙the White House is lucky to have him ! It’s also great to see reality and joy back there , been a bit since it’s felt this way and it’s nice 😊
Look at God!! How wonderful is this!! I'm so happy that Jon's whole family got to be there with him and share in that moment especially he's beautiful wife!! It just goes to prove prayer works and it changes things!! 💞😊🙏
I wasn't totally clear... I really meant her spirit which feels strong and joyful and radiates from her...all the blessings of the world for her and Jon.
He’s such a humble man with talent to boot! And the love he shows his wife is so extraordinary. They truly have a special connection. May God guide and keep them for many years to come. 🙏✝️
So happy to see Jon and Sulieka. This is the first I've seen of her since their interview when her disease reemerged.. Blessings to the both of you, love heals everything. 🕊🦋💚
Part of me wishes I was there because Jon oozes talent, grace and beauty. It would be so awesome to hear him play in person!! The other part of me wonders if I wouldn't have popped out of my chair from having it drilled into me as a kid to always stand for the national anthem.😆. Can we adopt Jon's version for every football game, every olympics, every ceremony, every everything?
I have great admiration for Jon Batiste really happy to see his wife. Happy holidays. Holiday season is perfect time to reflect on your blessings and seek out ways to make life better for those around us. Sending you and your family. Stay blessed
Jon Batiste. All Véro moments reflect the love he deserves. Him and his family. His value, his kind, loving and caring soul. And, of course, an incredibly talented musician. His beautiful smile is bringing warmth to his work. It is a deserved honour for him and his family to represent the best the USA have to offer; and it is an honour for the USA to have him and his family represent a classy, talented, honest and intelligent side of the society. Bravo!
Love his God given and Jon perfected talent. Beautiful performance and that infectious smile is a winner! Great job Jon. So happy his wife and extended family were part of such an honor. Great choice President Biden and team
Despite the corruption, the craziness, the dishonesty, the ugly violence, America keeps throwing up truly great souls. Batiste is a joy. Thanks for sharing TBT
Wow Jon amazing arrangement of the American and French Anthems. I'm so happy to see your beautiful Wife Suleika looking healthy!! Bless you and your Family. Thank you President Biden.
One of the most talented pianist composers, I have ever heard. To think that much talent in one person is amazing; sings, dances, composes, directs music plus plays instruments. So glad to see his wife was up & about with him. Pray 🙏 her health continues to improve.
Oh Jon, We are super happy to finally see this amazing video. I searched high and low for it!! .. You, Suleika and the whole family look absolutely beautiful. So loved hearing every note you played. WOW!! .. You are a National Treasure Jon!!! .. Now I am filled with so much joy and heartfelt happiness!🥰! .. God Bless You and Your Beautiful Wife!! CC ❣❤
Love this man, a beautiful representation of all a man can be. What a powerful witness of what a true Christ follower looks like. Blessings and favor upon you and your lovely wife Seluka.

@@JonBatisteTruthBeTold Thank you 🙏🏼
The sound was so low we couldn't hear his playing.
History suggests that enslaved people built the house that Mr. Batiste now plays in, how wonderful!
Please post the rest of the performance.
