    This was the last piece of music I shared with my grandpa. Unable to leave his bed let alone spend time in his room with 31 guitars, he replied, “Amazing!!!”
    In the weeks leading to his passing, this became my all-time favorite music performance. Now, months later listening to it again for the first time, I’m reminded of the never-ending and inexplicably positive influence, not just musically, that he had on me. I have a whole life in front of me, and I know he’d want me to keep enjoying this piece - so that’s what I’ll do. Thank you all for this incredible, incredible piece of music.

      My first exposure to the otherworldly drumming capability of this man was when I stumbled upon the Snarky Puppy "Lingus" video a few years ago. My mind was blown and not only did it make me a huge Larnell Lewis fan, but it was also my first exposure to Snarky Puppy. I thank whatever Gods were looking down on me that day because I've found so much more incredible music since then that I would have never known even existed. This video is one of them, too. Had the RUclips algorithm not known I was already into Snarky Puppy and had searched other Larnell videos, this would not have been recommended to me.
      My only regret about this whole thing is that these Zildjian/Ghost-Note drummer showcase videos were recorded in a studio not far from where I live. I would have never made the invite list, and probably wouldn't have found a way in, but I would have like to have tried, dammit!

    Okay but come on... can we just talk about how beautifully and subtly Nate Werth (percussionist) compliments Larnell here (as well as every other drummer he works with)!! Sneakily filling the space at 6:07, getting that drop with Larnell at 6:34, adding to the Latin-esque groove at 7:00, and most importantly never getting in the way or playing when he doesn't need to be!! Awesome musicianship.

    What blows my mind is not just how creative and music Larnell is, but how fluent he is, both technically and in terms of phrasing/time/space/melody. It's impressive that he can have these ideas, but truly incomprehensible that he can execute them in real time, all in one take, in front of an audience, while grooving as hard and tastefully as Soan, Gadd, or Purdie. That's what makes him one of the greatest drummers in a generation.

      Some cymbal brands have certain cymbals in their line-up designed more for "auxillary percussion" players than set players that are made specifically for playing with the hands and still get a clear tone and sound great. I mean... The one Larnell smashes is not that. But those kinds of cymbals exist. So he's not the first person to do that. :D
