Nate Smith - Morning and Allison (feat. Amma Whatt) @ The Jazz Cafe, London 25/05/2022

(Sorry for the song not being complete, I’ve been having technical issues with my phone and tried to trim the best I could for it to end nicely.)
I’ve been following Nate closely for many years and finally got a chance to see him live. Super grateful.
Now, call me biased if you want because Nate is very high in top 10 musicians list, but it was probably one of the best live performances I’ve witnessed live. Unparalleled musicianship and tightness from the whole group, and of course Nate is just a POWERHOUSE of a drummer from a drummers point of view. In every aspect. Taste, dynamics, pocket, technicality, polyrhythmic language. Everything.
I am a very lucky man for having the chance to witness all that live, from so close, direct from the source.
Forever Grateful.

On my list of my top ten favorite drummers, Nate Smith shows up AT LEAST three times...

In my top 10 i have him and Gavin Harrison in almost every position.
