Kingfish is amazing humble young man. His mama raised him right! .True story. . We're hanging out at 152 Beale Street waiting for an Experience Hendrix Show at the Orpeum Theater at the end of the street. We hear somebody say see ya later Fish. We get to the venue and we're taking pictures of these amazing buses painted with Jimi Hendrix album covers. Who walks up as asks if we want him to take a picture of all of us? Kingfish! We still have no idea who he is, but we know he's going to the show. We didn't know he was IN THE SHOW. at the end of the 3 hours of Jimi tunes Buddy Guy hands Kingfish a guitar and says "play it kid". Fish played Hey Joe to close the show. Oh...and he was 17 and still in High School!
To be honest, I've been ignoring Kingfish a long time, thinking he's just another kid with a guitar. But listening to him here... I'm sold. He's got the heart and soul of a bluesman. I'm even inspired.
In 15 years of reading you tube comments sections I don’t think I’ve ever seen *one single thread where eventually someone didn’t post some hate,……until just now. Literally not one single negative comment about this young man. What a beautiful thing.
This guy is legit. I love the fact he has integrity and humility. He talks so much sense and his stratocaster is so beautiful. Really cool to see the blues being propagated. If you don't have his album, it's a killer. I've had it on heavy rotation for months on Spotify.
@@mrsimpson2022 some kids get cancer but he gets the blues? WTF? Also, god's a myth; the Bible is a creative-fiction book filled with backwards science, made-up history, and immoral passages like Psalms 137:9 and Exodus 21. I recommend you watch The Atheist Experience youtube channel, where Christians call in and give their evidence for god.
@Grace&Danger You're bullshit liberal dude. Just because you hate God doesn't mean you have to tell people not to praise our Father in heaven. GOD GIFTED since few people have this talent.
@Grace&Danger Godless people as you are often critics for everything, never happy. Just look at the the God haters in Congress trying to impeach Trump. God protects our president, and Trump will prevail over the mindless haters of Jesus, causing even more fury form liberals since they cannot overcome the Power Of Jesus. Wait and see very soon.
@@christopherkahn6522 Absolutely! Michael Chertoff is a Luthier out of Brooklyn. He does build very good sounding guitars at CNC manufacturing prices. He is not advertised anywhere, but you can find him on the usual social media.
@@p6x2 Yea, that is a great sounding guitar, a bit more special than the Strat. My point is that for a mid-level production Strat, the new Vintera Series is like a home run. I love Fender's, Gibson's, Larrivee's, Martin's, and there are a whole lot more fine instruments out there. I even own some great Squier's, and I do mean great.
@@christopherkahn6522 what I really like about the Michael Chertoff's is that for about 2500 USD, you get a real boutique guitar, which is going to be unique. Since he works everything manually, the model you get will be personalized. I am not saying that Fender's and Gibson's can't make a guitar, but as the manufacturing techniques have lowered their production costs, the retail prices have gone through the roof.
Amazing guitar skills as usual. The Vintera series guitar is just awesome, and nobody better to introduce it than Kingfish. Chris, you did an amazing job of knowing the interview subject, asking the right questions, and allowing enough space for a great interview.
Ed Yarb -I prefer the sound he gets from his Michael Chertoff Guitars. This Fender is too twangy of a sound or me. But if he likes it, it’s ok. I like the beefier Gibson type sound.
This kid is the greatest thing and has the finest sound I've heard since Hendrix, Freddie King, and Stevie Ray Vaughan, rolled into one. Simply Magnificent!! dave w.
If I were Chris, I'd called him king too Idk, but kingfish reminds me of Freddie King (God Bless His Soul) All the big three kings are gone, now I see who will continue their love for the blues He is so humble and polite, what a great person. He's able to show all his ability through his singing and guitar playing while at the same time shows his great character through his singing and guitar playing. So skillful, yet you can feel his delicate touch on every details. As if he treats the guitar as his lady, so delicate and respectful. God bless you, Kingfish Keep the blues alive
Heard of this guy back earlier this year and now seeing him on this, fender and normans I'd say this not his year but more say this is his year of growth where more people are finding out about how good he is. I say his year will be next year.
I fucking love Kingfish. This man is the real deal. It hardly gets more authentic than him. This is a truly inspiring interview with a human being who completely embodies the music he exudes. What a beautiful soul.
Raised in Clarksdale? I wouldn’t be surprised if he was born at the crossroads. 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽it’s the only logical explanation why he is as good as he is 👍🏽👍🏽
I'm fortunate enough to have met this young man personally. He is nothing but a young man and he is exactly what you see. He is an impressive young man. He is a product of his family's understanding of talent, careful effort, supportive, and faithful ethics. He is so humble. He is a young man of solid character and integrity, wise for his age. He was a good influence on this old man. No doubt. Young Kingfish was an example of how wrong my attitude was towards the younger generations. I am a more hopeful man after a honest experience with the teenage Kingfish. It was a couple minutes that felt like a half hour. I am a grateful man. Knowledge through Music. ✌️
kingfish is gonna pass on the real stuff for all the world...he was born on Clarksdale. that helps. but as Albert King said, " everybody understands the blues "" ... grettings from Brasil ....
"Been here before." Yes, it's called DNA. There's a good possibility one of Kingfish's ancestors could play the guitar & sing JUST LIKE THAT, except The Blues wasn't invented yet.
As a metalhead... like ... black and death metal.... kingfish is a wholesome welcome to the blues family. My man shreds. I can’t wait to see what this dude can do. Fucking hail.
Hey man if we didn't have the blues then metal wouldn't exsist and niether would I dare say the maybe the best death metal band entombed wouldn't exsist so I mean the blues is pretty important to metal as a whole. Not to mention no blues means no stoner metal either another favourite of mine.
God Hates Anime One of those genres which when played live hits the soul much more than on vinyl and definitely more than on digital playback It’s like going to church when you hear this live. Speaking from experience. If you know, you know. 🙏🏽
He was destined for success I’ve done shows with 2 of his uncles his family lineage is incredible!! I think Larry influenced him the most you can really hear it in his voice. And what a song writing machine. Sold my sole for rock n roll my all time favorite!!
I quit playing guitar for several years to focus on learning Chinese. I saw a performance of his and was reminded of how much fun I was depriving myself of. Back to it after that. Thanks King!
Kingfish got this potential that most people doesnt know yet, so its my job to dissiminate and handover this talented person to you readers here. ---a strong m,essage to our millennials of today ---by Jr Patatas
Wow, what a great talent. More than anything else, he's a very nice, respectful, polite, young man. He has a wonderful future ahead. I would like to see him lose weight, so he can share his gift with the world for many many years to come.
Amazing guitar player! But it comes from his soul , has to be what’s going on .. can’t be blown away because his energies has been around for a long long time..
I just saw King Fish at the Monterey Jazz Festival, WOW! He made me smile for 1 hour and 45 minutes straight. He was so good!!! He came out into the audience and the people went crazy,it we so good.
People who love you tell you the truth...hope people close to this talented young man advise him to take care of his health and manage his weight...God bless the upcoming king!
@@debbiewilliams350 With Buddy Guy, that had to be a great show. Saw him in Monterey at the Jazz Festival. He performed before Larkin Poe, another excellent blues band.
there is no way you could know where you go - in the moment - I don't think you want to know, but you want to be there. do the thing that you love, the thing that you know and if you are focused you will find what you are looking for - in the moment or outside of this town
Fender made a damn good move hiring him to promote these guitars. Never played a 7.25 radius fretboard, I think I might have to go try one at GC tomorrow 👍

I am glad he is starting to get the attention and recognition he richly deserves, what a talent and old soul!
very true
Me too
I am definitely going to buy his music, and support him. What an awesome musician, and person.
👍
He isn't fat: he's full of blues.
Overflowing with Blues
Bursting at the seams with the Blues
Blues berry pies
He’s full of magic
Nah, he is fat haha (that's fine), BUT he is super talented too, so both
He is so humble and polite. love it.

JUST LIKE ALL THE OLD BLUES BOYS USED TO BE........
Which is saying something seeing how shit this interviewer was.
His mom raised a not just a musical genius, also a fine gentle classy man. Thanks mom, you rock!
Sadly his mother passed away , but it only made the bluesman stronger 🔊🎸
glad fender is showing him some love
Is he on the Vintera stratocaster. Its sooooo beautiful
Lol compare this to a rapper his age... he’s humble asf
Jess Allen and the ironic part is that he is ten times as talented than most of them.
@@guyfromoc9107 No he is not. He is a thousand times more talented than any of them.

He was great opening for SM band in Houston

Hes got that rare soul in his music that has been lacking from most modern artists for 30+ yrs...
It’s impossible to not like this guy! What a gem!
His personality is gold
The wrong people are getting paid.
Such a humble king🎸Dude is one of the baddest on the planet.

He is an amazing musician and has a old school blues soul💙🤘🏻🎸🎤
I've been watching him a long time. Hes a total badass.
I wish he would tour in Germany. I would instantly buy a ticket.
I always thought that Kingfish had a babyface. Now l find out that he actually is a baby! So much talent in a humble soul.
Please take care of your health, King! We would love to experience your talent for a long long time.
He is really really good, Blues is not dead!
His guitar is directly plugged into his modest heart!
Just ran across this guy. He rips and appears very humble.
He's that good at 20 he's only going to get better
I don’t know how much better he can get, he is a master
...well, he can play like nobody's business.. But man, that cat has such a rich voice! Yasss baby!
God gifted, not a return from the dead.

My favourite young guitarist in YT. So pure and simple yet fulfilled already.
Love the recognition he is receiving.
That's a killer guitar. It will be interesting to hear what Kingfish does with it. I love his version of Hey Joe. It's very unique.

Shame I can only like this once. Wonderful player and singer.
Hes the man,great voice,playing and personality !
He's talented, he's a gift to the Blues, ..very fluid guitar playing , soulful voice, very humble man..
What a nice dude...I hope he never changes... he won a new fan!
and he's wearing a Beavis & Butthead shirt!
If I were Chris, I'd called him king too

I suspect King is an old soul. Someone talented and humble. 🎶✌️🎸❤️
Humble & Polite He is, I just love "Kingfish" just saw him in OKC, this past Sunday had a great experience!!!
Shit I was there too
Darn it. I only found out about him yesterday. If I'd known last year I'd of been there in OKC with you.
Heard of this guy back earlier this year and now seeing him on this, fender and normans I'd say this not his year but more say this is his year of growth where more people are finding out about how good he is. I say his year will be next year.
Music is in his blood , Can you imagine he's a relative of Charlie Pride . 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👍
I fucking love Kingfish. This man is the real deal. It hardly gets more authentic than him. This is a truly inspiring interview with a human being who completely embodies the music he exudes. What a beautiful soul.
Love this guy, he plays straight from the soul, and it doesnt seem like many others can do that nowadays. I can only wish him the best in the future.
Great player... just hope he can live long enough to be the legend he surely is.
Ted Knecht take at easy.
he looks like hes lost weight
I have NO DOUBT! Neither should you! ❤
I totally agree. Im obese and its a struggle every day. He is so young i hope he has great people behind him to help him out.
I did not want to say anything about that, but he is such a sweet young man
I hope he stays with us for a long time
Modest and kind, but he can play with the best of them - glad that his career’s taking off
This gentleman is the real deal. God bless.
The man is a genius. The whole history of the genre in one charming package.

Interesting.. not sure why I didn’t consider that
He's Charley Pride's second cousin. (CP was a famous country singer). I suspect King's musical heritage goes far deeper than that. What a talent
