Greyson Nekrutman Plays "Caravan" (Massive Drum Solo)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 17 фев 2022
- Greyson Nekrutman is a teen drumming phenom who has so much passion and energy, he’s impossible to ignore. He admires the great drumming legends and he’s covered a ton of classic jazz and big band tunes over the past few years.
“That’s cool and all, but can you play ‘Caravan’?”
The movie Whiplash came out in 2014, and it reminded the rest of the world how awesome drumming is. It featured the song “Caravan” (Juan Tizol/Duke Ellington), which became a recurring piece for the protagonist.
Of course, whenever a song enters pop culture, people start requesting that song. And as a drummer - especially as a jazz drummer - you bet Greyson has been asked to play it. It’s like asking a metal guitarist to shred the solo from Dragonforce’s “Through The Fire And Flames“.
In the video above, Greyson nails the song and goes into an extended drum solo with killer technique and dynamics, blazing fast hands, and confidence.

This video was terrifying.
Embarquement immédiat dans "Caravane". Impressionnant !
20" Jazz Medium Thin Crash - B20JMTC?? that what you're riding the shit out of?
Wow 😦🥁🔥👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
ruclips.net/video/6a1Wp6iDCks/видео.html not for everyone but no denying the drums here
The fact that Greyson is only 19 years old blows my mind, imagine how good he’s gonna be when he’s much older if he’s already this incredible. A true legend.
HES 19??!? I need to practice right now
@@liltrash5534 ya same wth
I think that his technical Skills won‘t develope to much since they are developed that far already.
"imagine how good he’s gonna be" ...you mean you can get better than that!!?
@@peterzwegert904 nonsense, he has a whole life ahead of him and no one stops learning.
one of the coolest things to me about this solo is that at 4:42 he accidentally clicks his sticks together. You can see him kind of stop and think about it for a moment and then he decides to work the stick clicks into the solo. That kind of fast thinking can't be taught!

Insane! The same guy that is playing this jazz masterpiece is now touring with Sepultura (Metal). Insane this versatility.
Haha Eloy Casagrande is the reason I searched for this video.
I saw him perform with Suicidal Tendancies. The kid has range.
You can play jazz this well, you can play anything
2:09 that grip change was so smooth man
He's a millisecond rushing
I can feel it
@@NorNor-bb6dn are you a rusher or a dragger?
@@NorNor-bb6dncould u do it tho?
That. Was. INSANE.
Hi Kristina!
Watch buddy rich and you’ll see insane
it really wasn’t that crazy lmao
@@bernielomaxsmustache7204 Show me a video of Buddy Rich playing like this at age 19.
Hell yeah it was
Holy shit...incredible!!!
Nice to see our Metal God Samus appreciating Greyson's talents too!!
Such a big fan! Thank you so much for your kind words!
@@GreysonNekrutmandrums the man himself! Dude, you're awesome
This deserves T W E N T Y T O O more likes
Eyyyy, It's the big baahee himself, how's it going ya mad metal magician?
Incredible performance. The difference between this Caravan and the movie is that Greyson is playing with passion and freedom of expression. Neiman was playing with blind determination and fury.
And it shows with how controlled Grayson is in contrast to Neyman's frantic chops.
Top take
I love both to be honest, they’re both art just in different forms
both playing styles are great in their own way
Translation "this is how drummers actually play versus the dramatized movie version" but yeah i see what you mean
I saw Buddy Rich live 3 times, Art Blakey, Dave Weckl multiple times....Am a former drummer...needless to say, I really love what Greyson is doing. He's bringing back a lost art form that has power/finesse/swing/showmanship and more. Hats off to you Greyson! Love this music!
Never saw hands like that including Buddy Rich or Louie Bellson. If there is such a thing as too good then he is too good.
U nailed it sir 😎🥂
Bro how old are you art blakey is like from the 30's
Dude is an absolute prodigy.
But I think we also need to discuss his legendary sock choice.
Classy.
His socks have emoji’s on them
He's barefoot
He's not a prodigy, he has just played for like 8 hours a day for about 5 years.. he says it in an interview. Same with Estepario Siberiano
"Still not quite my socks, Nekrutman." - Fletcher, probably just so he can have something to be mad about.
We got our Buddy Rich here
Oh yeah? Buddy had his own band and his own gigs? Where's Greyson's band and said projects that he's leading like Buddy?
You anoint a person before they've done anything meaningful. If Buddy were around to hear that a kid who won't ever get closer to where he was when he was around, is be compared to him... boooyyy he would let us hear it. It's irresponsible to compare anyone to Buddy Rich let alone an internet drummer who blew up on Instagram and doesn't have a meaningful gig other than Drumeo's videos.
@@BeatKid9000 bro it’s a movie quote from Whiplash
@@BeatKid9000 🤡
@@BeatKid9000 my guy really took it to heart dayumn… its just a quote from the movie whiplash… chill
@@NameIsMarcel nah there are actually people who think he's the second coming of Buddy Rich...
I'll never calm down about silliness like that.
I've been a drummer for 55 years, and Buddy Rich and Gene Krupa always rolled off my tongue when talking about the greatest. There's a new kid in town, and he's number one. Greyson! God has gifted you, kid. Be safe in your travels so we can enjoy you for years to come. I wish people realized how many hours if dedicated practice and suffering it took to gain your talent. Jaw dropping!!!!!
Dude adjusting a tightening screw mid solo is savage, Insane solo.
Pretty nuts to see him flip flop between matched and traditional grip, insane!
It gets even crazier when you notice he's also using both ends of the stick for his left hand. This is nuts.
Which grip is better and why?
@@SJulian007 it's more towards personal preference and both are equally good.
@@SJulian007 different grips for different things, traditional offers more control with dynamics and matched offers more power and volume
@@goomie1347 seems like matched would be the best of both bc you can articulate your fingers better. Drummers don’t play traditional with both hands.
Finally he's getting his deserved recognition. Been following him for about a year on insta now and just waited for some big drum channel to cover this amazing talent.
🙌🙌
Does he ever play with anyone else apart from himself…yeah it’s good chops
But leaves me cold
@@peppertennis he did perform at a couple of gigs, including with Darren Criss
I believe he was playing with Brand X for a little bit
@@peppertennis he played on an album with William Duvall from Alice in Chains this year
This kid IMO is the best drummer playing right now!!
His chops and oneness with the entire kit is beyond words!
Greyson is proficient in so many styles of music, not even just jazz. Thank you Drumeo for showcasing one of the greatest drummers of the current generation.
"Still not quite my tempo"🤣. I love whiplash and the performance, but this is something else his amazing! Cant wait to see his future performances.
Now are you a rusher, or are you a dragger or are you gonna be on my f…ing time
@@mikki_mh are you russian or dragon?
@@mikki_mh im gonna be on your time
@@thecoconutgum HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAA LOLLLLLLLL
You'll be waiting for raver! 😂🥁🔥😃
Ok so it's an objective fact that Greyson is literally an unstoppable force, but can we also appreciate the drum mix? Not sure who else is behind the sound team besides Victor, but man, well done. You guys really made this a premium experience.
Our studio team is amazing 🔥
Kudos for the video editing too
Yeahh! I came to make sure this comment was here; sounds fantastic!
@@DrumeoOfficial so is Greyson. Thanks for spotlighting him. I recently discovered him on RUclips and he blows me away
"Sorry, forgot to press record... Can you do it again?"
he prob could lmao
At least let him change his shirt first
"Bet,say less"
Here is the new drummer of Sepultura 🔥🔥🔥 só corre pro abraço garoto!!!!
O sarrafo tá bem alto pra ele. Mas se ensaiar alguns meses ele pode desenrolar 😂
I’m Indian here, I absolutely love sepultura- especially roots. Try out bloodywood, it’s like the sepultura of our country if you will
@@qanonbrasil5255he is a jazz drummer, its the most difficult music to play on drums, of course he can
@@qanonbrasil5255assisti ele ontem com o Sepultura. O cara arrebenta.. encaixou perfeito na banda.
@@ivarvidfamne5647 difícil pra quem? Já ouviu falar do ritmo Frevo? Sai pra lá gringo. 😂😂😂
An incredible 13 minute display of someone living their passion. Very inspiring. The stamina is what impresses me the most. Bravo 🔥
Stamina he ain't moving an inch haha
@@kld5617 You don’t see the sweat on his forehead? Do we not move our wrist or feet when playing kit?
@@seanbattledrums5198 aaah yeah it's a long tune init didn't realise he's bossing it
@@kld5617 aint moving an inch? wtf do you think he's doing with his arms and feet? lmao
@@kld5617 have you ever played a set ?
Just the simple fact he didn’t drop his sticks with the amount of sweat pouring off of him is amazing! This kid is going places
🔥
The drummers I see lose their sticks are usually playing crazy hard. This kid really understands finesse, you don't need to play em hard to get the most of your kit. Amazing to watch.
Going places : ) I think he's already arrived!
you can see sticks on the ground so there is a chance he dropped them
He drops them and picks them up again so fast you didn't notice...like the gunslinger in Blazing Saddles.
@@Imnotplayinganymore love it!
What makes this *so* much more impressive that the covers I've seen before from the whiplash version is that Nekrutman literally played this in his own style, showing that playing preexisting drumbeats isn't all he can do.
This almost seem like it’s too easy for him. Incredible.
The precision of his hand movements is insane. Like every little movement is so focused. Like there’s no waste in movement.
Not many know this, but Greyson has been a member of Drumeo as well, spent many years as a Drumeo Member, and now he's on the other side of the camera!
Cheers Greyson! Through your diligence and hard work, You Deserve Everything!
That's a really great comment. Super cool!
I'm old enough to have seen Krupa, Rich, Morello, and Bellson live. This kid is right up there. What he will do when he's in his 20s, 30s, 40s, and 50s is really something to look forward to (I only wish I was going to still be around then to hear him!). Wow, what a prodigy! I could watch just his left hand technique for hours. Seems to be quite level-headed and mature, too, which is really nice to see.
All he can do is regress. Holly cow.
@@jameshealan3540 Don't put that on him lmao.
Yeah but he still needs finesse - he’s all rigid technique
"I could watch just his left hand technique for hours." I felt this comment down to my very soul. that left hand technique is impeccable!
Beautiful comment
Long live people that appreciate like you !
this guy's play style is absolutely insane, so much energy but still so tasteful
I asked Greyson to play this for me live at his clinic. Being the legend he is, he didn't say no and I can happily brag that I got to witness this masterpiece in person :DDDDDDD
01:48 quick cymbal adjustment like it's nothing. Just proves how confident he is with this. Incredibly talented. A joy to watch
Saw the tilter might be coming loose. Damn I missed that.
This guy is 100% in his element. His understanding of the instrument is so fluent that little things like that come second nature to him, even in the middle of such a stellar performance and exhausting piece
Playing drums for 30 plus years,(rock and metal) I can honestly say, after watching this, I can't play the drums at all......just wow. And I thought Dave Weckl was tough to play. This kid is outstanding.
That's jazz drumming for ya
Always time to learn and try new things; I was like you....played rock/pop/metal from age 12-20 and then got into jazz and now, 33 years later I've never gone back to anything but jazz. I'm still learning and I still have a ton more to learn. Keep going! It's a lifelong journey.
Lars, is that you??
Dave Weckl is still beyond Grayson from what I've seen but G is very young
@@andrejtchubanov7537 😂😂😂😂
I just found out he is now the new drummer for Suicidal Tendencies! His drumming is wild and it will be interesting to see it put to use for Thrash Metal/Punk group like Suicidal Tendencies. Jazz and Thrash Metal are my two favourite genres.
A lot of the heavy hitters from the 60s 70s, and well into the 80s. All started in jazz.
Good choice, Sepultura 🤘
This has got to be one of the all time best solos that I have ever heard and I am 80 plus. That's a lot of great solos.
He just proves that when you know what you are doing, you don't need more drums!
Exactly. Even Mike Mangini has severely downsized his drumkit on tour.
when i get to the peak of my drumming ability, there will be only a triangle and a single stick.
@ff7h Can't wait to see this 🔥
well said 🙌
That's like saying, I'm going to prove I'm a good guitarist by cutting one of my strings off.
To each their own, but I hate down sized kits. You're limiting what's available to you, for no other reason than showing off
Mind. Blown. This is one of the best drum solos I've ever seen.
Those super clean drum rolls are pure goosebump material, amazing
The dream of every drummer that watched Wiplash. Incredible talent!
Exactly. Being able to play this is definitely my goal in the future.
Maybe hes talented. bit that doesnt make hin a good player. its only practice. i dont like when people call pros talented
@@lordAlgaiva he's talented and a good player
@@lordAlgaiva jeez bro u a little insecure??💀💀
@@lordAlgaiva explain how hes not good?
I love how he incorporated these unintentional stick clicks into a part of the solo. What is also great about him is not only his technique, cool cat attitude and big band era heritage, but the fact he is also a versatile drummer, not “just a jazz guy”
His drumming is a straight up blessing. The focus and the talent and practice, he will be the best in no time!
Effortless. The command is astounding. A complete master…extremely impressive.
I hope the viewers can take this in. This is some of the best drumming ever recorded.
i need ankle and wrist replacement from watching this,
the guy is too awesome for my eyes to handle
I'm a mediocre drummer but a fan of the greats.
This is insane. Like, damn. Might be the one of if not the best drum performance I've seen. So much flare and freestyle and still highly technical.
Is no one going to point out how his socks have emoji’s in them?
can you explain why this is good? it looks easy lol
@@thoughtgains6959 do it.
Seriously: no one commented "Not quite my tempo"?
(Outstanding drumming, by the way)
Came here for this! Hahaha
I was waiting for the cymbals to start sweating.
When i Read "not quite my tempo".
Fletcher's face comes to my mind automatically
but was he rushing or dragging?
@@VieiraMCG 😂😂
This young man is, in my opinion, the purest example of the combination of dedication, obstinacy, study and talent. I've been following him on Instagram for a few years and I've seen part of his evolution. I wish the best for this Boy. As someone well said: Finesse!
“Ill cue you in” still the most greatest movie scene ever
Besides from the absolutely insane drumming, those drums sound INCREDIBLE! Great job from audio engineers and drum tech.
The drums sound great. Not a fan of Meinl cymbals, though. To me they ruin the overall mix here.
@@U2WB Meinl makes amazing cymbals what
expect from the super high frequency that pierces my ears through the drum solo
@@busken10
That's kinda what jazz cymbals are supposed to do.
@@joshuadelaughter7968 oh really? my bad i didnt know jazz cymbals where supposed to be uncomfortable, i guess it really is different from other drums.
I'm a fan now. Never heard of Greyson Nekrutman but he's definitely someone I will look forward to hearing more of his music. Such a great talent!!
Dare I say... The next Buddy Rich?
Let's take a moment and appreciate this. True legend. Absolutely to be right up there with the greatest of all time. I think you deserve it. Hope you carry the drum voice of a new generation!!
his left hand in traditional grip is amazing
Any compliment this drummer receives will be an understatement.
YES! This is quite my tempo!
So happy for Greyson having higher recognition on the drumming community.
Thank you @Drumeo.
Was looking for this comment!
This is genuinely the most impressive thing I have ever seen. Mind-blowing.
This is age 19? Real prodigy, brilliant.
Wow. This kid is a wrecking ball of drum sticks and history.....the artistry of his playing is spellbinding.....he is in for a long and storied career....i hope he keeps his head -- its a lot for a young man to face in todays world. I will be watching and rooting for him....
Although Greyson is incredible, and the mixing team at Drumeo is equally as fantastic, I can't get over how much of an impact the lighting made for me! I know absolutely nothing about set design or lighting, but I know that the warm light made me really enjoy the set
It must feel great to play in that kind of lighting too, nothing else to focus on but the kit in front of you
I find it astounding that someone actually wrote this drum piece.
sepultura brought me here. What a skillfull drummer!
These days I can"t watch 2 licks of most drum solos but this was electric, couldn't keep away! Keep the fire alive mr. Nekrutman! Tkank you Drumeo!
🙌🙌
I like the fact that Greyson changes grips, from matched to trad and vice versa. His technical and improvisational ability is just mind-blowing. He's the new Buddy Rich, no doubt about it. He's brought big band drumming back to life, and it sounds better than ever. He's already a legend, at the age of 19. Wow.
he appears to draw influence from buddy rich, the signs behind him with his initials GN are the same design that buddy rich BR had printed on the front of his bass drum
There’s also a Buddy Rich and Gene Krupa playing nod in this. 😉
Very simple: there are many incredible drummers out there today, and there is Greyson…. This guy is from another planet…..
maximum musicality and maximum virtuosity….. god bless you Greyson and thank you for your incredible contribution for a better world !!!
This is unbelievable! I know the title said Massive solo, but I definitely wasn't expecting this! Bravo
That was possibly the most impressive display of drumming I've ever seen. My heart was racing while my brain tried to keep up with every note and every little hand technique. Not to mention the unmatched energy and creativity.
One of the greatest drummers I've ever seen in my life. And I've seen a lot...
God damn... great great drummer, great technique, great sound, great spirit and great feel. Amazing.
And it swings on the vibes of this jazz, perfect
I love how in his reaction video to the movie he points out so many times that the drummer in the movie is tight and makes crazy faces and exerts so much energy to play something but he does the same thing here
Damn!! get him a real band behind! What a beast!!
Bruh that was INSANE... I'm felling like I'm not a drummer anymore
My hands are cramping up watching Greyson play. Amazing.
This dude's not only a joy to listen to, he's a joy to watch!
This kid's technique is mind blowing. Super cool to see. Already a master drummer. I really can't believe those little details and how he's able to stay on the groove. I listen to a ton of metal and this style of "heavy jazz" is really cool and busy to me. I still have so much to learn obviously.
I listen to metal too first time hearing jazz and there is so much subtle shit going on, this is fascinating
I don’t recall ever having a drum solo increase my heart rate but this guy was just over the top intense. My mind is blown. Just unbelievable. You have found & mastered what you were put on this earth to do & I thank you for sharing with us.
My heart rate went up too!!!
the way they mic'd recorded and mixed this so perfectly as if we're all sitting in a tiny basement jazz club
My face, mind, body, and spirit all just melted during this video....
Finally!!!! Well Greyson's been around for a couple of years, been following him for a while, but finally we are able to hear great drumming and chops that are not the usual ghospel chops!! Just amazing to hear!!
I'm so sick of "gospel" and "shedding" it got boring very quickly a couple years ago...the "look ma' no hands" 🙄yes yes we get it; how about some groove for a change?
He looks older than two 🤔
@@kspocketngroove3973 no
The love and admiration to the style of Buddy Rich just oozes through this guy. Yet his own style shines in his playing just as bright. What a delight to watch and listen to.
Incredible. Powerful. The emotion.
The dedication and talent this guy has is unreal
If I ever I see him live I’ll give him a standing ovation from the off. Wowser!
I actually got emotional seeing his passion, his energy, his delivery!
This reminded me why I love this instrument!
This. Right. Here. I’m in awe…
Flipping terrific....
At 10:50 he goes in to such a flow state of performing that you can actually feel the natural language he is expressing through this instrumental extension of himself.. remarkable performance demonstrating one of the highest proficiencies..
this is so true!!! it felt like i could understand what he was saying, as if he were actually speaking to me
So freaking awesome to see Greyson on here and share his amazing playing!
I watched this video almost two years ago and thought I'd never see this talent live. 2 months ago, he joined Sepultura, then came to my country and I went and saw him live. Life's so strange.
Just awesome!
"An amazing drum performance" isn't enough to describe this presentation!
And this bass drum sound, omg!
whole kit sounds unbelievable 🔥
@@DrumeoOfficial that's pearl drums for you
I’ma go ahead and say this. This dude is a great drummer.
No shit

just
....wow

Wow, just wow. To sum like that for 13+ minutes. Just amazing talent & dedication to your art to learn that piece.
The experimentation, the stamina. This was masterful.
pure insanity... huge respect to greyson nekrutman
🙌
Outstanding!
I've watched this 5 times in a row, magnificent!
That. Left. Hand.
Not just that. The dynamics, the timing, the feel, the speed, the power, the passion, the execution, everything. Ive seen Neil Peart a dozen times. Ive seen Buddy Rich twice. Ive seen Vinnie Colaiuta, Alex Van Halen etc etc. This lad is a teenager and he's playing like this???
He is already a force to be reckoned with but, my word, when he's in his 20s, 30's..... I can't wait.
Incredible performance, amazing talent. Buddy Rich smiles proudly.
When I was watching him the first that came to mind was Buddy Rich too. I always watched him on Johnny Carson. This guy really good. Like you said Buddy Rich is smiling down on him proudly.
For sure
Buddy was an absolute stickler for traditional grip tho, so I don't think he'd approve haha. But I love seeing a player who can kill it in both forms like this dude!
@@kurtisfriedrick6655 me too. Nothing like great music
bloody brilliant
No words. This is something on the cosmic level or something. Bravo, dude!
Fella found time to tighten a cymbal sand while STILL sounding like he had 8 limbs. Good god what a player and what a performance. The best I have ever heard this song played by a mile.
Remember..he’s just 19..🥺
So many of today’s good drummers are fairly similar to each other…
Greyson is a real throwback, to the top drummers in the big band era..
Which is good because in the movie Whiplash, that's the goal of the conductor. To revive the old era of drummers and create a new legend.
I got to see this performed by a quartet at Chapman University at some point between 03-06. The drummer was one of the percussion department teachers or something along those lines and this guy absolutely stole the show. This was absolutely incredible to watch, brought me back to that point I had seen it in person those years ago
