“GOOOOOOOOOOD” - Nate Smith, 2024

[@ryshpanmusic]

That is the most epic mic setup for a beat-up upright piano that I've ever seen.

[@jonashellborg8320]

So good. Super nice interview and jam, I liked the mix of intense and chilled tracks. Loved the sounds coming out of kit, piano and keyboard.

[@Keychain-]

This is such a lovely series. So far its been guests whos names ive heard of but music (and personalities) i havent had a chance to dive into. This time im able to learn about someone totally new to me playing alongside my favorite drummer. Great introduction to James Francies!

[@dreG450]

James Francies is unbelievable.

[@aaronrosapepe9573]

Killin’!

My heart almost stopped when I heard the first few chords of Final Church. As soon as I learned it was Nate Smith on a boatload of Gambino tracks, it suddenly made sense why it all grooved so hard.

[@korieklion]

Really nice to hear James his personal perspective on the music life. And lines sound really expressive. Enjoyed the Jams. You guys were in sync!!!

[@pascaldeshayes5459]

Full on generosity. Beautiful.

[@travistaylor9830]

"This other joint could be cool, very easy, it's just a loop in 9," and then Nate comes in with the wildest drum beat instantly.

[@mayolmarin4286]
