Jonah is a 19 year old self-taught drummer. He's never had a lesson, and plays songs as he hears them, and how he thinks they should sound. He doesn't "play it like the record", he plays his way. He doesn't have to learn how to play a song; he just has to hear it. Jonah spends between 1 - 2 hours per week playing drums.
Jonah started playing drums when he was 3 years old. At first we thought it was cute, but soon realized that there was something going on here. He wasn't just making noise, he was making music. Within a few weeks, he was playing covers of his favorite songs. It was so cool, we decided to put a few of his vids up on RU-vid. People began watching them and sharing them. In no time, he had developed a large following.
I am a 12 year old who is looking towards playing stuff like this (So far I've learned hail to the king from memory, probably the hardest song I've played so far. Currently learning Acid Rain) and I think this is amazing. I started playing a year ago, at age 11, and I think I'm doing pretty well.
You just liked one of my comments I wrote 13 years ago, a few minutes ago. I'm glad you did! Brought me back here. I use to watch Jonah videos every day back then. I'm glad to see he's still rocking and flawless at the drums!!
Thanks so much for watching! I'm trying to go back and read the comments from all my videos that I haven't responded to yet. I really appreciate all the fans!
The first video I ever saw of you was playing Tom Sawyer. All I can say is if Neil Peart could see you now, he would be as proud of you as I am. Keep it up son. Love to watch you play.
Man I remember seeing the video of you playing bat country YEARS ago. Absolutely insane that youtube is at the point where i can watch a literal 7 year old turn into man, and a killer musician before my eyes. Makes me feel old, and im only 26 hahahaha. Happy to see youre still jamming man, good luck to you.
Great cover! You have a great voice!! The bass is awesome, and Isaac can definitely slapp, as well as the guitar is on pont! It shows that all 3 of y'all have put in a lot of work!! But if I can give a little constructive criticism, the harmony is a little too loud and a little flat. Keep practicing, and y'all will get there! It's just my opinion, and it may not be what others hear. Either way, I'm a huge fan! ❤
It's been so fun watching you grow, and it's so awesome seeing some of your same mannerisms and facial expressions change, yet stay the same! You never fail to kill every song every time! Keep it up! ❤
I remember watching your vids when you were so tiny, and you rock just as hard now as you did then! Love and support from this fan! Keep rocking hard, man! 💕
