The guy shreddin' tenor sax is Alex Milsted - he was my roommate at Berklee freshman year. I was nowhere near his level at the time, but his playing inspired me to practice hard. Thanks, Alex!
I was having coffee with my cousin at the Starbucks just to the left of the bass player. The musicians showed up trying to find a place to plug in their amps. Starbucks said no but the ice cream place, J.P. Licks, was cool with it (you can see the yellow extension cord). I just happened to have my camera and filmed their set. Definitely cool guys. This was filmed Sept '09.
FREAKING INCREDIBLE! Ps that drummer is blowing me away... ONLY A SNARE AND HIGH HAT? Thats like Jamin with 2 strings on the guitar... haha CRAZY Talented
Bravo! I wish the personnel was listed, I'd hire any of these guys in a minute. (They're all marvelous, and the Hogwarts of Music should be proud, but special kudos to the drummer, who is so in-the-pocket with his groove... and with only a snare and a hi-hat.)
you guys!!! made my day!!! omg!!! that was just amazing!! I laughed like crazy at the bass solo hahahaha... he did exactly what i do when im playing piano!! that orgasm though :3 jajajaja
It's essentially blues what they're playing, but they hella jazzed it up. The guitarist was mainly doing mixolydian and (obviously) pentatonic shiet with lots of chromaticism, i also heard some whole tone in there. I'm not very sure though, i'm pretty amateur myself :p
@@RafaelMinerbo nice, i didn't go to berklee but I did go to my local conservatory 2017-2021, I had friends who went to berklee though and I could've gone but it was just too far for me, but congrats!
Good way to pick up private party gigs for example. A lot of income can be generated and good business contacts. Be sure to have a business card to give potential clients. A lot of heavy players have made a taste from the street. It´s a venue that is available when you need it and there are no middle men getting between you and the money.
I am not sure early twenties I'm guessing since it's a college in Boston. I agree they are very talented musician's.... URockHard® Supports them all the way. Are you familiar with Boston?
I love jazz. These guys are perfect musicians in some way. I respect them. But I would lie if I said that I enjoyed watching this. I don't know what jazz/music has to be like to be called exceptional, but what these kids do leaves me cold, I'm sorry. I hope they don't just go on with their practice routines, I hope they make experiences with the world and humanity that lead them to play music that is special and not just hard to play. Good luck, guys! Dare to be audacious!
Power stance, sour face, holding the beat down and living the dream. Ladies and gentlemen, the man playing drums.

Bass player is out of this world, this will never get old

That tenor saxophone is just tearing it up!!!!!!!!!!!
Wow I am actually quite amazed! Great job to these guys.

The sax player is Cartman, the bassist is Kyle, the drummer is Kenny, and the guitarist is Stan.
Great! I'm so happy when i see the young team doing timeless music. Greetings from Brazil.
that guy on sax is on point. Probably the most talented of the four.
