Can anyone fathom how talented and other worldly Kent will be when he's 30? We'll be looking back these videos as his early vintage masterpieces. I feel we are witnessing a rare savant. Thank you, Kent, for sharing your incredible gift.
Quest4us yeh, I'm with you dude. I've been working in studios all over the world for 30 years with some red hot session players but I've never heard anything like this. Just amazing...
@brownwings00 not enough recognition, should have millions of subscribers with such skills/talent. Everything he puts out is flawless, just pure magic.
If you don't play fingerstyle acoustic guitar it's hard to appreciate how difficult it is to have the smooth grove and complex musicality in playing pieces like this. The underlying techniques he's using take a lot of practice, BUT he obviously has a gift for arranging songs that goes beyond that. I've seen a fair amount of incredible players live and online and Kent has to be in the top 5 of living acoustic guitarists, right up there with Tommy Emmanuel , Sungha Jung, Mike Dawes, etc.
some more outstanding acoustic guitarists for you: Guido Mancino , Lucas Brar, Estas Tonne, Alexandr Misko, Billy Strings (if you like picking), Naudo rodriguez, Lucas Imbiriba and not on acoustic guitar ichika nito
@@markkubiak8296 Well, decide for yourself! Compare Kent's version of isn't she lovely (this one) with Sungha Jung's version here: ruclips.net/video/o0NJiasWrLc/видео.html I think Jung's playing is a bit cleaner and has a bit more spirit in it, but it's not a contest... I'm sure Kent could best Jung in different contexts too. I'm happy we have them both!
i mean he's doing ALLLLLLL the parts simultaneously including the vocals lmfao... so i think we have an inkling. even as a lay person - totally fucking amazing.
Sheesh. I discovered Kent this morning so I'm running through all of his recent uploads. I keep coming across jaw-dropping tunes like this one. Wow! I'll bribe him to come to the USA.
I just found out that George Lowden Guitars has invited Kent to perform at the 2023 Namm Show that runs from April 13-15, 2023 at the Anaheim Convention Center in Anaheim, California.
This guy's rhythm, phrasing and technical abilty is phenemonal, how he can play the melody note for note whilst playing the accompaniment is beyond me, every song I hear him play sounds note perfect with the originals,
Watching videos like this just prove one thing that I already knew--I have a LOT of room to improve. It's amazing how many people I see on RUclips make me feel like I don't know anything. This is the style I aspire to and acoustic is the only thing I've played in many years. Just makes Me want to practice more.
Kent you are such an inspiration for us old timers that gives us hope taht other young talents like yourself who really apply themselves will keep music alive.
Oh jrh4lo -- I just heard this awesome triangle player who can make this one little geometric metal piece sound just like a full symphony orchestra. Would you like to hear it??
Isn't she lovely? Isn't she wonderful? Isn't she precious? Less than one minute old I never thought through love we'd be Making one as lovely as she But isn't she lovely made from love? Isn't she pretty? Truly the angel's best Boy, I'm so happy We have been Heaven blessed I can't believe what God has done Through us He's given life to one But isn't she lovely made from love?
Man I just have to say, I love how you remain faithful to the little nuances of the song you're arranging. You keep it real, but at the same time you give your own feel to it. You're my favorite fingerstyle guitarist next to Tommy Emmanuel, groovy and upbeat and not playing it safe. Great job!! Subscribed!
Kent I’m in total awe of you. You have a talent that not many could compete with. You’re definitely an artist and you paint a beautiful picture. I thank you for sharing it with me.
Isn't she lovely? Isn't she wonderfull? Isn't she precious? Less than one minute old I never thought through love we'd be Making one as lovely as she But isn't she lovely made from love Isn't she pretty? Truly the angel's best Boy, I'm so happy We have been heaven blessed I can't believe what God has donethrough us he's given life to one But isn't she lovely made from love Isn't she lovely?
Really digging this and rediscovering so much more there is in his rendition after several months. Right now loving everything that is going in there from 2:38 till the end. Awesome. Really puts a smile and lightens my heart. Thanks Kent.
I ran across one of your videos on my suggested feed - and Young Man, you are amazing.

1 - how old is he? And 2 - how could he get any better???
@@Resiege1 He is only 17! And he seems to be still on his way absorbing many kinds of music, I'm really looking forward to his progress in the future.
Honestly, he'll probably be about the same, at least to any degree anyone can notice. What the hell more is there exactly?
Most underrated guitarist on youtube
@brownwings00 not enough recognition, should have millions of subscribers with such skills/talent. Everything he puts out is flawless, just pure magic.
On the planet
And he will be bro, he was on like 30k a month ago, he's growing fast bro
You dont know the meaning of under rated. Study english please
I give him a 6
Out of 5
May be the first time a solo guitar brought tears to my eyes
to be fair he did a loop here. wasn't truly "solo" right>?
It’s always enjoyable watching a genius perform their craft.

Please don't forget Paco de Lucia. If you don't know him watch some of his video in black and white in his prime . You'll be amazed

Kent is even better than those others. How does he do it? His sound is unique.

Kent is unreal! Arrangements are perfect and he plays with such soul 🙏 ... this is my 5th video of his in a row
I watched them ALL in a row
@@markoer Same
Be right there!
今まで聞いたこの曲の中で最高の演奏です
すごいギタリストです。選曲も素晴らしい。音楽遺産です。

Isn't he lovely. 💖👍😘
Lead, rhythm and percussion (and harmonics) - and all so crisp. Just lovely.
He NEVER stops to amaze me. Watching his fingers moves he enjoyed romancing with the string. And I felt that
Yet another masterpiece.
this is my first time seeing you play standard tuning. great arrangement man!
Genius is the only word i have
The true song to guitar cover.

Kuya watch me too :)
This is pure talent at it’s very best.
This dude is amazing .nothing less
Kent you are such an inspiration for us old timers that gives us hope taht other young talents like yourself who really apply themselves will keep music alive.
This dude ear is amazing to be able to play all parts perfectly like he does. Big respect Kent.
The harmonica solo. 🤯
You have been elevated to my No. 3 Favorite Acoustic guitarist behind Prince and Bill Withers. Thumbs up. 👍 Now, I have to listen again. 🤷♂️👏
D.R.Lee I have to agree with you wholeheartedly ... He's got a special hook on that guitar for sure. Man he blew me away I LOVE this arrangement.
This is one of the few songs that Kent played on a standard tuning & two guitars. Stunning arrangement and playing, as always. 👍👏
Putting my guitar down and trying my hand at the triangle after this.
Oh jrh4lo
-- I just heard this awesome triangle player who can make this one little geometric metal piece sound just like a full symphony orchestra. Would you like to hear it??
@@andymartin8162 I would
Agree... and chop the guitar off for firewood...
Cowbell.
My guitar just laughed at me so I’m gonna burn it I did save the strings though and now I’m off to strangle myself goodbye cruel cruel world
Feels like I am hearing several instruments ... Amazing!!!
Ｉ can't agree more!
Im now hitting the like before the 1st Ad , never heard acoustics like this kids.. wowza
Isn't she lovely?
Isn't she wonderful?
Isn't she precious?

Making one as lovely as she
But isn't she lovely made from love?
Isn't she pretty?
Truly the angel's best
Boy, I'm so happy
We have been Heaven blessed
I can't believe what God has done
Through us He's given life to one
But isn't she lovely made from love?
This kid deserves way more subscribers. A rare talent.
Nice to see Kent enjoying the groove of this classic Stevie Wonder piece. It should be fun.
本当に上手だよなぁ。
アレンジも毎回素敵です。
His guitar absolutely sings.
I'm always amazed on how you do it so clear and damn smooth.
Man I just have to say, I love how you remain faithful to the little nuances of the song you're arranging. You keep it real, but at the same time you give your own feel to it.

I could listen to Kent all day long. A Genius. A Rare, Pure unadulterated talent.

I thank you for sharing it with me.
Superb...always
Kent is truly a one man band! Beautifully arranged and played.
Loved Stevie Wonders album “Songs in the Key of Life”, awesome rendition I’m sure he’d approve. I sing to myself and the tune is spot on. Wow
killer rhythm
ケント君楽しそう♪🤗
私も朝から楽しい気分になりました！
ありがとう💕
今日は１日中頭の中で流れそうです♪♬♫♪♬♪🎸✨
Genius. 👍
IMO: Guitar god & GOAT. Hands down.
Perfect 👍
That’s the best finger style guitar version of that song I’ve heard .. and I’ve heard plenty! Very well done! Excellent!!
have you seen Walter Rodrigues Jr.'s version of this song?
Pete Huttlinger was my go to for this song but I'm rethinking that.
And who the hell did gave a thumbs down for this piece of art?
Too good. Too good! 🙂
UNBELIEVABLE
this is really great !!!! one man band its all there ,rythm, lead, bass, drums only few can do this ...this guys should be consideres one of the best
Very biutifull
心が落ち着きます
メッチャいい！！グルーヴ感が素晴らしいので自然に身体が揺れます☆
Nothing but superb guitar skills at play this guy captures every nuance the original song and puts his thing on it.
Ty brother
Holy moly - what an utter delight to listen to
Take that thumbs down back now you monster! Some of the best guitar vids on YT here.
There be MONSTERS EVERYWHHERE !!!!
They just can't deny the fact that for someone this good, his skills is incoherent with his age.
Agree. @UCNYlXBcX43XtXOxzzKmps2w and Michael Chapdelaine, along with Tommy Emmanuel, are currently the best guitar players that I like.
The thumbs down come from people who cant play come as you are.
Very talented, congratulations!👍👍👍
This guy is an amazing talent. Can't wait for the next one
What a brilliant exponent of solo guitar arrangement and performance.
Absolutely BEAUTIFUL SOUND!!

Incredible. That's a tough song regardless of talent, and you nailed it with every little detail. Great job.
You truly give each song the respect they deserve ! Beautifully done.
wonderful
과하지 않고 화려하고 멋지게 연주하시네 증말
Flawless!! 💖
This is flawless.😊
First there’s Joscho Stephan, then Tommy Emmanuel and now Kent Nishimura. Outstanding!
....And when you also consider Alexandr Misko.....things are looking UP!....
Really digging this and rediscovering so much more there is in his rendition after several months. Right now loving everything that is going in there from 2:38 till the end. Awesome. Really puts a smile and lightens my heart. Thanks Kent.
Dude, you rock!
Tuning: EADGBE 😧😧😧
Dane deRiesthal 😄 my thoughts too ... shocking
you know its unreal when what was written was EADGBE 😅
mind blown by the solo from 1:20 so smooth
Such a wonderful sound. Great job!
Amazing. Thanks for sharing your talent.
Flawless the notes are clean and crisp and with focus on details. Superb genius in action.
Pure TALENT!!!!!
I loved this acoustic version.
Hats off to you
Beautiful work young man. Please keep sharing your talents.
Ok. Now the magical sorcery on standard tuning. Kent has no limits if not the sky. Please fly high !
If I was that good I'd have my fingers insured. Absolutely incredible!!
Love it Kent, always smile after watching your playing mate. Great stuff👍👍
Making the world better one song at a time , Beautifully Played
It's honestly stupid how good this is
Beautiful rendition of this incredibly beautiful song. Thank you for this!!
Increíble. Un talento.
I ran across one of your videos on my suggested feed - and Young Man, you are amazing. I’ve watched many of your videos, with my favorites being MJ’s ‘Thriller’, and Carole King ‘It’s Too Late’, ‘’My Cherie Amor’ and ‘Living Inside Your Love’
To other viewers, watch those if you haven’t already.
Others comment that you are a prodigy........ I am not musical, but I believe in their conclusion.
You are one in a million. Continued success, Kent
amazing talent kent ... Praise the Lord 🙏
Amazing
Seems so effortless. Just found your music this past week. Love it.
Beautiful
I’d pay good money to see Kent perform live. This guy never disappoints!
He's better than anybody else I know. Amazing 👍
