Let me know if you ever play the West Coast.
Orlando FL here. 😊
I would to but I’m in Montana
Love to, but I live in Arizona. You planning any tours out our way?
@@Scottm46
Me too. I asked the same thing. I'll drive anywhere in AZ to see them.
AZ rules.
I’m undead and roughly 3,190 years old and I only rise once every 3 millennium to visit RUclips and post comments that say “real music, real musicians” and “no autotune” and things like that. All that said, this was very well done. The red moon sets and so I must return to my infernal grave. Thanks for the Dan.
Haha appreciate the self-awareness
I have journeyed here from a strange and distant land. i am a 4,000 year old desert wind spirit and i just wanted to tell these kids how happy i am to see their generation embracing real music, and then i saw this comment. Isn’t it heartwarming to know we have the same indisputable taste in music at such a distance of land and time. Sleep well my friend
_WORTH WAKING FOR!_
Uh…… ok
Thank you. Thank you for making fun of the middle aged guy who feels the need to tell everyone how old they are prior to praising “real music”.
I’m 68, and the fact these young kids even know who Steely Dan is is very heart warming,and incredible. And then do it so well ! Awesome
I Think Donald Fagen, Walter Becker, and Skunk Baxter would approve. These Young people nailed it.
Could you imagine walking into your basement and seeing your kids doing this? Happiest day of your life. This is absolutely awesome.
SPOT ON BACKING VOCALS HOLY HELL!
Thank you!
Damn close to dead on such a great job,these guys are the bomb,simply amazing!
Spot on everything. Outstanding cover.
Lead and background vocals 👌
The sheer balls to take on Steely Dan. Next level. I’m impressed.
They totally nailed it.
That's the name of my next band, "Sheer Balls".
Thank God for these young people. This is the future we NEED 🎵🎵🎵🌈❤
The real hero is whoever mixed this. So many tracks. Well done.
Thanks! - Colman, the singer
It sure is perfectly mixed, but every musician is absolutely outstanding - this is next level!
Mixed perfectley
As a 65 year old songwriter I'd say y'all'r frickin AWESOME!!! Great music....phenomenal vocals!!!
Thanks, Robbie! Check out our new Rosanna cover if you're interested!
I'm 367 years old and really enjoyed this cover
oh ;;; 2 years younger than me ,,, but i like it to ;
Youngster, eh?
Lol
spring chicken
These young folks have been listening to Grandpa's record collection again! Brilliant!
I will echo what half the comments are here - young people playing Steely Dan warms my middle-aged heart.
I found Steely Dan at your age in the 70's. Wonderful.
What. Young people playing Steely Dan! There is hope!
Yeah, you took the words right out of my mouth👍
My hope restored too! LOL someone tell Rick Beato there is still hope! LOL that was absolutely awesome!
Hate to sound like one of those “young people” but….
That comment is pretty base
What do you mean "there is hope?" Where does the doubt that there is possibly not hope lie for you?
Not just playing it. KILLING it! Made my day.
61 year old keys player and former FT professional musician. Best version of "Reelin" ever! So much respect for each of you. I love seeing seeing and hearing the gifts and talents of Gen Z. Go for it! AMAZING. Same for "Rosanna" - "September" - "Movin' Out" .... and many others here. 💛💪🏻💪🏻
64 year old Alberta Canadian loves your cover .Awesome job young people. Keep rock and rolling. 🙏 Amen
Wow!!! Just…WOW!!!
As an old hippie that used to listen to Steely Dan in real time I am gob smacked.
Thank you! Check out our new Rosanna cover!
Such a great cover 🤘 love it
Hey guys 8 month old baby here, really enjoyed the vid. Keep it up!
W0W! Very impressive, 8 months & you're punctuation is Fabulous!!
Lol!😂😂😂😂
My dad, a classic rock musician, passed away in January of 2023. This is something he would have really loved. Thanks for the great memories.
Aw we’re sorry for your loss
I love seeing these younger kids enjoy good music. This is from my parents time but it's still better than most of the stuff out there today.
LOW DARTS GIVES ME FAITH IN OUR YOUTH
Haha thanks!
For sure!
They remind me that I have faith in the youth anyway, always have, always will.
Who’s the hot chick? DOM ha ha.
@@tonyosborne4909The girl is called Sydney Foote.
I'm 64, and oh hell... Well... That was freakin AWESOME!!!
Wow. Do you understand the perfectionism and hiring of just the right musicians and retakes that Steely Dan utilized? And you guys just play it!
It’s so refreshing seeing the younger generation playing and enjoying older music! These kids are quite impressive!
I’m 69 years young and still play guitar (hobby nowadays), but you guys are awesome and I am proud of you all! Keep doing what you are doing! It’s refreshing to my soul to hear and see youth hanging onto the music of an era that made sense. Thank you all!
Mike😊
We will! Thanks, Mike!
Thank you for taking that song seriously, you have two entire generations who appreciate your dedication ❤
Beautiful work kids! Yes I called you kids cause I'm 60 now. (OUCH) It's very heartwarming to see you all embrace the earlier music. Keep playing your hearts out cause we all are loving it!
there is hope for this country after all.....
It's the next generation of Band Geeks... and; if you know who they are, this truly is meant as a compliment.
Yes, at least I do, thank you!
Bank Geeks were/are amazing!
💯
Better
Awesome cover!
Donald and Walter would be proud!
Wouldn't the just?
And then some!
Extremely talented crew. 😊
I'm a 60yo musician and it takes guts to cover Steely Dan. Well done kids! You made my day!
I am a 51 year-old music teacher. I’m having trouble finding the right words. Beyond impressive. I mean, holy crap! Do you guys all attend one of those specialized K-12 arts focused schools or something?
@jonreiser2206 Thanks, Jon! The core band all went through the Fairfield Public Schools music program
7-string on a Steely Dan cover is wild
I’m 200 years old
and
this band has talent
Love to hear today’s youth playing these classics so proficiently. Good job!
Thanks, Mike! Check out our cover of TOTO’s Rosanna if you’re interested!
long live the Dan
For a split second I thought the backup vocals were pre-recorded. They were so perfect!
Really nice job, everybody!
Well they were recorded separately, at least. That's the keyboardist on the left and the lead singer on the right
@@breakingglass27 Feeling a bit dumb :) I thought the background singer and the keyboard player were twins, or at least bothers. Your answer makes a lot more sense! 🤦♂🤣
...they are
More like “post-recorded”, overdubbed like the Dan would’ve
I'm 62 and play guitar. Used to play Priest, AC/DC and Maiden in rock clubs, etc. Nice job kids! Impressed younger generation liking the 70's!
I'll just thank the parents here. Great kids.
👆👆👆👆👆👆No kidding - GREAT PARENTS GREAT KIDS
65 yrs. Old and as a life long musician , ya nailed it! Well done, our music is in great hands with young ambassadors like these.
Can you guys please stop embarassing the so called "mainstream talented artists"? Seriously, amazing job!!
WOW, was not prepared for this level of excellence. Completely awed.
I’m 70 this month, loved this group
Fascinating to watch
Happy Birthday me too!!!!! Ain't it cute 😃👍 30 years to go then a letter from the King !
That drummer is fire.
You can tell he definitely pulls
Im a 23 year old hippo called Terrance. This song made my day.
😂
I’m two years old and thusly have never heard of Steely Dan but these kids sure have talent!
Super good vocals both lead and backing and some interesting and edgy improvisations on the iconic guitar solos. These kids have the recipe to the “secret sauce.”
You're right. Don't forget the drummer even the base are awesome too. It's so hard to say which is my favorite: the 3 part harmony is 👌but I don't think I've ever heard a voice so suited for this song as this one. He does the high parts and the talking parts perfectly.
Do You Really Know How Good You All Are??? Timeless and Killing It!!
I’m exactly 6.476 trillion years old and have only visited earth once and have to say this is the greatest video I’ve ever witnessed in universe 654 ! Bravo
That harmony. Good God
As previously stated young musicians playing steely Dan and doing it very well. There is hope for the future of music after all 👏
Dont ever stop guys.
Good job kids when music was actually music!
Great to see the younger generation bring these great classics back to life in their original form. I hope Steely Dan are proud, they should be.
I love the seven string playing.
This song is a blast from the past. And these young musicians are a blast from the future!
Four stars out of four!
Good afternoon, and I am so glad that your group came up randomly on all my RUclips notifications: the superb musicianship, the spot-on vocals, and just the overall vibe makes you quite the powerhouse group, and I have now subscribed, and I’m going back and catching up on so many of your videos, and in particular, a live performance, where the first song, Benny & The Jets, absolutely blew me away!! (And as a multi-instrumentalist myself, who has played guitar, bass, keyboards, trumpet and even some drums in many a cover and original group way back in the day (and who was mostly a lead singer, but was always happy doing backup vocals as well), I think it was absolute genius to have two pianos on that song; rock on, Low Darts!! 🎼🎤🎸🎹🥁🎸🎹🎸🎺🎷
Nice to see a young group appreciating Steeley Dan
Every now and then RUclips`s algo gets it right, only took them 3 years this time. I got here through Josh Turner - Allison Young - Elle & Toni. Great cover by the way, nailed it.
the face that the guitar player makes at .29 is why we play guitar
it is the moment of transcendence
it is the time when any guitar player transcends the material plane and enters the spiritual cosmos
I love it
Thanks, Steve!
I hope their parents really appreciate this music these kids are pumping out.
The unsung hero of this video is the drummer! He’s incredible. Great job everyone. Bass holds it down really well, too.
Absolutley agree,the drummer is right in the pocket and just the right amount of fills.
Incredible musicianship all the way 'round; including the lead and back-up vocals.
I'm 11 seconds old and this is my favorite band so far.
The kids are alright ❤
There is hope for our youth.
Of course there is! Most younger people are great. Don't believe all of the "generational war" bs out there. Now, as an older person, start discovering some of the new music and you'll be happy you did.
Looks like the future of music is in good hands, nice work!
Thanks Ron; means a lot! Subscribe for more every week!
Brilliant cover, kids.
I am 68……and think this group is THE BOMB! WOW! ❤❤❤❤❤
WOW WOW!!!!!!!
Steely Dan.....real music....well done.
You all are fantastic. Thank you from a 69 year old who rocked to this tune my senior year of high school😝. Class of 73. Great cover.
Most excellent
I have heard many bands “try” to cover this song. You all just hit a grand slam out of the park.!!!!!!!
You guys are blessed to have found each other and to just be on the same page with your talents with these old songs is amazing. I’m 64 now but you guys remind me of a group I used to play with in my teens. You make me smile when you drive me down that highway of memories in my mind. Which just happens to be the title of my new song I just wrote.
Nailed it! It took me years to appreciate Steely Dan and here y’all are. Well done!
Nature is healing 🙌
Front man, lead vocal was exceptionally well!!
Sounded better 2 me than the original lead vocal. His lyrics I think was 100% in sync!
Thank you! - Colman
Excellent job by all! You've captured the essence and vibe of the original and added a personal touch at the end with a smokin' solo. I've been playing in cover bands since 1971 (bass + vocals) and you've all done your homework in recreating this iconic Steely Dan song. Your harmonies were spot-on. My faith has been restored in this current and upcoming generation of musicians. Thank you so much for covering some of the music from my generation . Just watching you perform these songs with the look of pure joy on your faces, warms our hearts. Keep em' coming ! BTW, I think you would do well on covering some Boston music. More than a Feeling, Hitch a Ride, Peace of Mind, and Smokin, are just a few suggestions off of their debut album . Every song off that album was a hit and the harmonies, guitar work, and keyboard playing would be right in your wheelhouse...
These, are musicians, with a true love of music.
What a fun bunch of friends. Sincerely. Tremendous
I was a wee child when this song came out. My father raised me listening to Steely Dan and many other classic rock artists.
I’m 53 now and it’s great to see the younger generation loving and playing the classic rock we had back in the 1970s.
Great job guys!
I'm a 66 model, and these oldies where it takes a great combination of so many instruments and voices to make this kind of sound. You had me toe tapping. Great job 👏 you guys.
That drummer holds a really nice beat. Makes it look easy.Great taste in their song selection. They pick hard songs.
I'm eleventy-billion years old, and this is patently one of the most legit Steely Dan covers on RUclips
That was TIGHT.
Outstanding! so refreshing to see this generation perform real music..I was lucky to know 60's,70's and some 80's music as the best ever...simple as
As a 70 year old man who picked up guitar 2 years ago and who's reacquainting himself with the piano after 60 years I really appreciate the commitment it must take to get to this level of proficiency with and instrument in such a short period of time. I only wish I had of stuck with back then.
I’m 68 years old and holy shite does that bring back memories. You guys have instilled some hope in me regarding your generation. I’m glad to see there are still some younger folks willing to take up hardware instruments.
You'd be surprised!
I haven't even been born yet and this is the greatest cover I've never heard!
What talent and so young. As good as the day the album was released and I remember that day.
Impressive!!!!! Been a music lover for 50 years. And I love to hear folks like this group just totally kill a not so easy song. Anymore I get as much enjoyment from hearing younger folks play, than the original artists.
These kids have done their homework. A plus!
Thanks, Dru! Check out our version of TOTO’s Rosanna if you’re interested!
You don't inherit your future from your parents,you borrow it from your kids. God bless good musicians!
As a Dan of Steel, I approve of this
You guys are awesome... I have always loved this song... Your performance is amazing!
The lead and backing vocals are exceptional. Love those guitars, drums. Such an amazing cover!!!!!!! I absolutely love how extraordinary you all are.
Sweet. Takes me back to my youth. The 70s was a heck of a decade for this old Boomer.
Ditto for this Gen X'er.
guys this superb Donald and Walter would be proud
I'm 21 with 300 years experience and I must say this cover is perfection
Keep the Dan alive kids.
Great job!
