Drum Channel, thank you so much for inviting me to jam with Chad and Gregg! I had the most incredible experience, one I will never forget. Thank you Don, Thank you Chad and Thank you Gregg. Nandi x
Chad & Gregg are unbelievably wholesome here. Love how they impart their advice in such a supportive and fun way. Their reactions to Nandi’s incredible ability is also fun to watch. What a feel-good clip. Thanks everyone! ❤
Nandi is a force of nature and a rising star. Gregg and Chad exude such infectious enthusiasm. My face actually hurt I smiled so much just watching 3 drummers hang. Thank you Drum Channel.
🎼BRAVO TO BOTH CHAD & GREGG FOR OFFERING TIME FROM THEIR BUSY SCHEDULE TO TEACH THE YOUNGER GENERATION AN ART THAT SERIOUSLY NEEDS TO BE SUPPORTED AS WE SPEAK🎶 UTMOST RESPECT🙏
This is so heartwarming. Chad and Gregg are such gentleman. They don’t patronize Nandi at all, instead they give the support to comfort to learn and develop. So sweet!
I got to watch Greg Bisonette at Sight & Sound Music in Muncie, IN back in 2000/2001. He played the theme song for King of the Hill. He was putting on a show for the locals there. Learned a lot of from him and was inspired afterwards. Still inspirational to this day.
@Drum Channel, Chad and Gregg - so incredibly awesome of you to put this together for Nandi. The best part of the vid was watching her soak it all in and asking questions. Helping shape and inspire the next generation - Loved it. Nandi, you're an absolute joy to watch play!
It is the epitome of passing it along. I can see her nerves but she's got chops no doubt. It's not about age it's about love of music, loving to play and loving to show others how. We are lucky to live now in the era of RUclips with SO MUCH instructional content and exposure to talents like Nandi. She embodies the "I want to do this and I WILL learn how" mentality. A lesson for all humans here, don't let anybody say you can't because you can if you put your mind to it and disregard anybody's non-constructive criticism. If it's in your soul, let it out, don't hold back.
It’s always so cool watching real masters teach and impart wisdom with such passion. Both men, with their resumes, seem so down to earth and love with their craft. And goodness, Nandi is keeping up with them with such ease. Love this all around
It looks like Chad and Gregg had as much fun jamming as Nandi did. The pure joy that emanates from every pore of her being whilst drumming must be contagious :-)
So many great comments on here saying exactly all the things I felt. Such fun you three were having. All credit to how the vid was filmed and the sound done. I am not a drummer and find the skill of drumming amazing to watch. I think some people do not appreciate all the things that go into the drumming part of any performance. Great that these top drummers are producing vids like this.
THIS my good people is probably the BEST video to ever come across the internet, OF ALL TIME!! Three excellent drummers, two professional, and one who will be known around the world as a top drummer, in her own time. All three having fun doing what they do. When they 'Traded Fours' I was absolutely floored, Nandi totally held her own at 11 years old with two VERY well known professional drummers, and played expertly, when many many older drummers may have been star-struck and choked in the moment. Nandi picks up what Chad & Gregg were laying down almost instantly. Such an honest and wholesome video. You are all three amazing people, and all three amazing drummers.
Your comment is ridiculous. When a drummer takes lessons from another drummer, they are peers at different levels, and there to learn and have fun. It is not helpful to propel a kid, and put expectation on her to be a top world known drummer. You are expecting her to be at a level she may not achieve, and may not want to achieve.
@@RockyTop85 I don't give thumbs down. You are talking about an 11 year old kid, who because of her Dave Grohl thing is now expected to be a super drummer. You don't think that Dave just conveniently chose to be nice and supportive to her? Most nice people, especially responsible parents, support and encourage kids but are also realistic about expectations, such as Chad and Greg did, but to give her false hopes that she is great is just bullshit. She is at the level a drummer of her playing experience should be, just like thousands of others. Just don't go the whole Hollywood Mum crap on her, that fucks kids up.
this is so awesome. these guys are loving doing this with this amazing young lady. im 53 years old and just started playing 2 weeks ago (after 43 years of wishing for a drum kit) this is inspiring.
yay, that's awesome! hope you're sticking with it. I can usually pick up most skills pretty fast, but I'm useless at anything other than a straight 4/4 beat, so much respect to each and every drummer
One day, Nandi is going to truly realize just how special these opportunities are that she has run into now from all of this. I'm sure she appreciates it now, but when she's older she'll really get it. I look forward to seeing her progress, seriously. Imagine seeing her on TV in 20 years and how crazy it's going to sem.
Here it is - not only playing drums is fun - learning drums is fun, too! Even watching a little open-hearted kid having fun learning the drums is fun! Inspiring, too! Thank you very much, Lady & Gentlemen!
This is awesome. It’s great to see a complete lack of ego from these famous musicians. What a great kid. She’s going to be a great drummer and I bet she never gives up after this experience.
Such a sweet child, and how gracious these drum giants were! They were very welcoming, helpful and inspirational to mandy and all watching. Couldnt have picked two better gentlemen to do this show with Mandy, lighthearted playfulness wins the day!
This is so amazing. Love Nandi. She is so genuine and you can see how much she loves to learn. So great of these two legends to sit and teach her. She will remember this always. Good job, lads!
This put a lump in my throat, This encapsulates the joy of drumming and music, Nandi, you are completely amazing and Gregg and Chad you are both top blokes for doing this. It put a huge smile on my face from start to finish and a tear in my eye. Amazing 😁👍
No matter what Chad plays - it snaps! Never heard another player that simply from the way he hits a drum, regardless of pattern - you can tell exactly who he is.
My gosh...three amazing drummers. It's inspiring and heartening to see an older generation paying it back to the next generation. And Nandi...good lord...she's a killer already!
Great thing about teaching drums is how you can show students music from ANY genre and they will enjoy breaking it down, its always a blast. Breaks down barriers too, hard to hate whats fun..
Well I wasn't going to watch this whole thing but I'm sure glad I did! Kept my interest from the very beginning. That little lady lot of talent and potential. And to be inspired by two great drummers like Chad and Greg had to be the thrill of a lifetime. Something she will never forget. It's great to see such young Talent.
I was at PASIC in I think 1996. I went to see Marvin Smitty Smith do a clinic. I arrived early and found a seat out of the way, not near anyone. I’m not really paying attention (I’m reading something) and this guy sits down next to me, reads my PASIC badge which had my name and home town written on it. He said to me “you’re from Traverse City?!? I’ve been there many times!” It was Gregg Bissonette! A guy sitting in front of me says, “who’s from Traverse City?!?” as he whips around to see who is sitting behind him. It was Chad Smith! Both of them being from Detroit had been to my home town many times. The three of us had a great chat! They were super friendly and personable. I have a picture of it in my office! Great memories!
This is just awesome and unbelievable to see these 2 legends teaching this girl things that she does after seconds. Just great watching you! Keep up the great work!
God bless you Nandi, love your passion and drive, may you have all your dreams come true! You are in great hands with these two legends, how lucky you are.
We will be hearing from this young talented lady for a long, long time. She can hang in there with the very best now. I love her barefoot approach, so natural.
This is the best drum video I have seeing in a long long time. It was just perfect and beatiful. Thank you Nadi to bring such life and joy to our beautiful instrument
I played drums in middle school and high school and was all city and all state every year but playing the set was the best I love to see stuff like this more of our youth need to get exposed to the arts. Great video.
When I first saw Nandi I wondered if she'd just develop as very good but very squeeze rock drummer. Then bam she's changes this conversation "do you know samba" from square to round. The second she masters compound meters she'll be the next jd beck.
Just a permagrin on my face the whole time. Nandi, you are an amazing musician and I only wish I could pick things up as fast as you! Keep it up and I look forward to seeing what you come up with in the future!
Drum Channel, thank you so much for inviting me to jam with Chad and Gregg! I had the most incredible experience, one I will never forget. Thank you Don, Thank you Chad and Thank you Gregg. Nandi x
You're welcome back anytime 🙏
@@drumchannel I think he should have a base player with you guys
#stayfocused #worldisYours
Nandi i wish you could of met Neil Peart of Rush ! Keep it up girl !
Nandi. It’s truly a pleasure watching you play. Keep up the awesome work 😁
I was teary-eyed after the improv section.
You can tell both Chad and Gregg are beyond impressed with this girl. Pure smiles of happiness and enjoyment from both.
I was thinking the same thing. They talk with here like she is a peer and not a student.
My face hurts from smiling for 30+ minutes straight. Love it!
Chad & Gregg are unbelievably wholesome here. Love how they impart their advice in such a supportive and fun way. Their reactions to Nandi’s incredible ability is also fun to watch. What a feel-good clip. Thanks everyone! ❤
Nandi is a force of nature and a rising star. Gregg and Chad exude such infectious enthusiasm. My face actually hurt I smiled so much just watching 3 drummers hang. Thank you Drum Channel.
"Can you teach me properly so I can actually master it right now." MASTER it? Holy cow. This young lady is on another level.
She’s amazing
Man, Chad Smith is a great drummer and just a genuine good guy.
Little girl brought Samba out of nowhere and killed it! Seen them play some samba was amazing.
The joy in Chad‘s face is priceless.

Bissonette has SUCH ENERGY--what a great teacher!!!!
They playing samba warmed my heart, thanks! BRASIL!!!!

Gregg Bissonette is such a wonderful teacher. He always tried to teach her new skills and levels of drumming, without patronizing.
My attention piqued when he mentions J Dilla, and even D'Angelo. Sounds like he pays attention to music as a whole.
@@bradf.9365 He's played on al sorts of records not just rock a lot of pop too.
Yes Nadiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii!!!!!!!! You’re the best thing to happen in drums and life! PLEASE KEEP GOING! ❤️
I dont' even play drums - but just watching the three of them have so much fun with it, put a huge smile on my face! :D Incredible video
Love this. I'm a sound engineer and always appreciate the inside. Chad is sooo awesome.
Very gentle teachers, so very cool to share their passions
It looks like Chad and Gregg had as much fun jamming as Nandi did. The pure joy that emanates from every pore of her being whilst drumming must be contagious :-)

I’ve never been quite sure if Nandi is just amazing ‘for her age’ or is genuinely good right now
Now I know. She’s the real deal isn’t she?
Sometimes the algo throws something up, you just put it on randomly and it pays off. Loved the trading fours at the end.

I never knew if an american is just honest about his emotions or simply likes to use as many superlatives and praising adjectives in one sentence.
this is so awesome. these guys are loving doing this with this amazing young lady. im 53 years old and just started playing 2 weeks ago (after 43 years of wishing for a drum kit) this is inspiring.
Welcome to the family!!
Hope you're still at it, Roge! Much love from MX
Hell yeah, man! Keep at it! Never too late to start and the drums are genuinely so fun.
yay, that's awesome! hope you're sticking with it. I can usually pick up most skills pretty fast, but I'm useless at anything other than a straight 4/4 beat, so much respect to each and every drummer
I've been watching this gifted young girl since her beginning. Love her energy. She's amazing and will only get better especially chillin with Chad
This... This... This is what beauty in all its forms is made of.
One day, Nandi is going to truly realize just how special these opportunities are that she has run into now from all of this. I'm sure she appreciates it now, but when she's older she'll really get it. I look forward to seeing her progress, seriously. Imagine seeing her on TV in 20 years and how crazy it's going to sem.
Chad Smith always has that certain swing about his playing pretty unique
At 11 to impress these men who are the pillars of what drummers inspire to be to this day is incredible...good job young lady
This is so AWESOME on so many levels!!!! So nice of Will Ferrel to join i too....LOL
Here it is - not only playing drums is fun - learning drums is fun, too! Even watching a little open-hearted kid having fun learning the drums is fun! Inspiring, too! Thank you very much, Lady & Gentlemen!
This is awesome. It’s great to see a complete lack of ego from these famous musicians. What a great kid. She’s going to be a great drummer and I bet she never gives up after this experience.
She's an absolute natural. Been watching her for years now. Can't wait to see what the future had in store for her
I've been playing drums for a year now and what Chad says at 18:43 is actual facts. Great metaphor!
Such a sweet child, and how gracious these drum giants were! They were very welcoming, helpful and inspirational to mandy and all watching. Couldnt have picked two better gentlemen to do this show with Mandy, lighthearted playfulness wins the day!
This is so amazing. Love Nandi. She is so genuine and you can see how much she loves to learn. So great of these two legends to sit and teach her. She will remember this always. Good job, lads!
Its so cool to just watch Nandis gears just turning in her head, I look forward to see where she goes in the future.
Honestly one of the most wholesome interactions on RUclips right now.
I love this video in every way possible. Put a smile on my face, thank you
This put a lump in my throat,
This encapsulates the joy of drumming and music,
Nandi, you are completely amazing and Gregg and Chad you are both top blokes for doing this.
It put a huge smile on my face from start to finish and a tear in my eye.
Amazing 😁👍
hit me the same way.
Hey that's so sweet. And these two adults are actually my childhood --err, adolescence and late adolescence influences.
No matter what Chad plays - it snaps! Never heard another player that simply from the way he hits a drum, regardless of pattern - you can tell exactly who he is.
Maybe Jimmy Chamberlain, but Chad snaps is a perfect description.
One of the most fun videos on yt
My gosh...three amazing drummers. It's inspiring and heartening to see an older generation paying it back to the next generation. And Nandi...good lord...she's a killer already!
I think this is the sound of fun and happiness, great job Nandi and Friends!
Halleluja! Loved it.
Meu Deus, ela puxou um samba com essas referências. Q honra
Great thing about teaching drums is how you can show students music from ANY genre and they will enjoy breaking it down, its always a blast. Breaks down barriers too, hard to hate whats fun..
Gotta love the little'uns eagerness and willingness to learn.
i just.... i just couldn't stop smiling by the time this video ended!!!!!
Well I wasn't going to watch this whole thing but I'm sure glad I did! Kept my interest from the very beginning. That little lady lot of talent and potential. And to be inspired by two great drummers like Chad and Greg had to be the thrill of a lifetime. Something she will never forget. It's great to see such young Talent.
I loved this whole video! Put a huge smile on my face grinning ear too ear the whole video!! Keep up the good work Nandi!!!!
I had a huge grin for this whole video! Freaking awesome
Watching the first part I was absolutely amazed. The free style at the end was mind blowing! That little sweetheart is FIERCE!

Thank you for inviting Will Farrell into your show. He's amazing.
We will be hearing from this young talented lady for a long, long time. She can hang in there with the very best now. I love her barefoot approach, so natural.

Such shining examples of perfect practice makes perfect..
Not just what you play.. but how you play it every time with all the nuances, consistently.
What a marvellous opportunity ! Both you guys are so generous with your time and feedback! Loved seeing this!
essa garota teve umas das melhores aulas de bateria da vida dela.
Aquela aula onde se aprende pequenos detalhes q irá usar pra vida toda!
Maaaan, I havent played acoustic drums in a courple of year but seeing this video REALLY MAKES me want to play again. WOW!!!! Thanks for this.
I had a ball watching this🥁
These are the nicest guys in the world hahaha. Great video. I'm not even a drummer and really enjoyed this.
Nandi, you're a killer!! So great to hear someone as young as you play so well, thank you!
So much fun to watch!
‘I know how to play Samba’ and Partido Alto.
Niiiice . Greetings for São Paulo!
Foi engraçado eles falarem né. Maneiro.
Great samba! A hug from Brazil
Just brilliant fun to watch. 🙏🏽
I love it!!! More......
Can we all just take a moment to recognize how nice Greg's kit it?
As a hack jazz drummer I love this. So awesome to share and pass knowledge. 🙏
So amazing! Boy you are in some royal company, Nandi! Keep rockin' it and we will all enjoy watching you explore and create!
this is easily one of the greatest videos i have ever watched
I have to say this is even nicer than watching Chad Smith getting the Baker treatment for an hour
Really awesome. Nandi is great to watch and incredible at learning.
She has the beat and the world at her feet
Chad smith playing partido alto. That's a new for me! Great video
Just a permagrin on my face the whole time. Nandi, you are an amazing musician and I only wish I could pick things up as fast as you! Keep it up and I look forward to seeing what you come up with in the future!
There is still good in the world. Chad and Greg, what great men you are!
The Samba part was the best! im from Brazil! ^^
Can’t get better than this.
Absolutely awesome!
They even mentioning Jeff😎 a must listen to when learning the drums💪💪
oh maaaaaa she is soooo good and entertaining in her videos, i hope she gets a killer band one day and totally rocks the scene
Im sending this my students! Thanks 😀
So awesome!! What a dream come true. Legitimately the best video on RUclips for good feels, education, ambassadorship etc!
