By the way if you are one of the complainers that there's no good music these days coming from the youth. Well, there's this.

Yes, yes, yes! I've been listening to these guys for years. Snarky Puppy is unreal, and definitely my favourite modern jazz group. Whenever a friend of mine says they don't like jazz much, this is who I put on for them, and usually get converted pretty quickly. That keyboard solo at 4:20 is absolutely brilliant - it gives me chills.


Truly a stunning performance. If only more people were aware of them!

Wonderful stuff this. I wonder if somebody is talking to the musicians through the headphones telling who to start playing when.

I’m would say that is almost for certain.

In addition to his jazz fusion stuff he's famous as one of the top gospel organists around. Check this:

It all started with a B3 in church for him. On the Keyboard Corner forum there are tons of threads talking about organ technique and this vid certainly shows how a player gets all those different sounds on a Hammond.

Then there's the incomparable Joey D:

The tune is great by itself and his solo starts at 5:00 but check out what he does at around the 8:45 mark. He morphs into an unbelievable gospel jam. How would you like to see Joey D and Cory together?

Wow, this is super cool! And they chose such an interesting name! I feel like there are still quite a few younger people getting in to jazz. I think one of my favourites are all the singers in Post Modern Jukebox. They're a youtube channel where they take top 40 or super popular songs that plenty would recognize, and they make (usually) traditional jazz-style covers of them, and their work is fantastic. It's really cool to compare the song versus their cover, because they are so drastically different that sometimes it takes me until the chorus of the song to realize what song they are covering. Crazy!

Jazz music is certainly alive and well!
