Cory Wong's band is really good too. He is totally crazy, but that must have come from Jack Stratton when he worked with Vulfpeck. Strattonb is certifiable!! Witness that he dared to leave Ohio to attend That School Up North.

You can hear the Prince influence in Cory but as he moves into other places I hear some Earl Klugh, some George Benson, Adam Hawley, and even some older styles like Wes Montgomery. Rhythm players of that quality are hard to find. His band... wow.
