I met Sonny in elementary and eventually we went to HS tiogether in Atlanta… Is Dad was my first music teacher… He’s been great since he could hold a drum stick!!!
Talk about being one with your instrument! Baptized behind the drums! Drumsticks like lightning. Smooth as the wind. A tornado of percussion. Oh! So nice. 🎼
I saw him in 1988 with EWF. It was the first live show I ever saw and even as a kid I recognized virtuosity. The whole band and show was incredible but when he was announced I made sure I remembered his name. I have had the privilege of following his career and have seen him live several times since that first show. Monster player. Just off the charts brilliant as a player and seems like a genuinely great human being. Thank you Sonny.
That roll that starts at :08 seconds and culminates in intensity especially at :17 sec is probably the single greatest roll of it's kind I have ever seen. The finger control and transition into the hand control is so perfectly practiced that it almost looks like it's CGI is so UN-real looking !
WoW!! The Master Drummer and G.O.A.T. Video just got my hyped!! Glad I know you Bro. Got started at Cascade UMC Atlanta, Ga. The Garner Family salute you Sonny! Keep doing what you do. You are a Bad Man!!!! 💯
@@nicklouishalsey9532 Must be two cowbells then, because you can see the guy in the white shirt with the cowbell in one hand and a stick in the other...
He's better than Neil Pert & most all other Jazz & Rock drummers combined. He doesn't need all the extra pieces/equipment. Pretty much a basic drum kit is all he needs to apply his craft.
Emory is one of those dudes where you just feel lucky to stand anywhere near him. Total master!
When someone is this good it’s definitely from the Lord. He is blessed with drum and skills. That’s for sure. Praise the Lord.🙌😊🥁

This is not an artist. This is God's gift to percussion. The precision and timing has me at awe.
so true!
HOLY CRAP......you are simply the best!!!!!
Mr. Sonny " Drummers Virtuoso " Emory

There are a lot of great drummers but Sonny's style is the one that I see myself playing like 👍

Not a drummer living on the planet. Like this man. Wowooo
Saw him at a clinic years ago, smoothest hands in the business
This is off the MFing chain
The man is the essence of cool on the drums.

Saw him last night at LDLC Arena stadium in Lyon, France playing with Eric Clapton. He was AWESOME!!

Rethinking my idols
LOVE drum solos played on top of the band shots. Gives something to work off and play against.
Right. Just filling in the space and then nailing the right partials with the band always feels so good

Have to say that this is one of the finest young drummers I've seen in a long time.

Whoa! Impressive soloing on top of that beat! Who or what played the cowbell and other instruments during this?
The cowbell was played by Malcolm McAlister. Hope that helps.
He played the cow bell! 🔔 He has a pedal by his hi hat! Like a double pedal!

I challenge ANYONE to find a drum solo better than this!!!
Only Maison Guidry. But Sonny is incredible too!
Anyone know the song name? I love it
He was EWF’s drummer!
JME going wild on the drums
Better than Buddy Rich and all these others. No one!!!!
This is my first time watching this guy and I was thinking similar - this guy is in more control than Buddy Rich
WTF......superhuman.
Да Пиздец чувак качает.Респект
Terrifying.
Female drummer says " oh my god."
He's better than Neil Pert & most all other Jazz & Rock drummers combined. He doesn't need all the extra pieces/equipment. Pretty much a basic drum kit is all he needs to apply his craft.
