Michael League, Cory Henry, and Nathaniel Townsley - Creepin'

[@DrtyWrm]

Michael League manages to make the simplest of playing extraordinary. I like how he plays, it doesnt feel like, "Hey look at me, im a badass bass player" its always well suited for the moment.

[@RGatGala]

well said

[@soniccucumber6639]

I think that's what makes a great bassist

[@Six3rdy]

Can I do a league pun, or are those getting overplayed? (Dang, I already did a pun by accident. Smh)

[@marshalleckert5784]

Corey Henry is from another planet, you can see it in his eyes.

[@Stupar28]

in his eyes you can see the grace of the holy spirit. This is the happiness that can only be obtained from the Living God!

[@laurentsaint-martin9711]

He is from the planet Heart.

[@Six3rdy]

He got that outer space gospel.

[@hoganbentle3582]

That floor tom sounds heavenly.

[@nekokate3904]

Damn I really wish they jammed one more song in that studio then it would be enough for a great album.

[@ericmills2094]

Man, I could sing praises to these guys all day. They put all the pieces together, restrained virtuosity, sensitivity, an outstanding groove, superb taste and dynamics, tremendous listeners and communicators.

[@agsensenz9464]

amen

[@brycel.williams8624]

Eric Mills “restrained virtuosity” is beautifully stated!

[@sherellmartin1778]

True

[@sherellmartin1778]

Sweet

[@Trust_Heaven_]

3:55 When you try to impress a girl that doesn’t care lol Talking about Mike 😂

[@kckrye]

Such an accurate analysis. Now I know why the song is called creepin

[@onek1dneywonder1]

hahaha I've watched this so many times but never caught that sad face

[@Tripp3000]

The future sent me 🔥🔥🔥

[@rovertyerffej3090]

Michael league has some of the best facial expressions while playing music I've ever seen 😂👌🏻

[@stevenpam]

The king of stank face

[@CornDrums]

At the time you look in Michael's face you have to laugh because of seeing how much fun he has got during jamming with them

[@christopherlopez4234]

Nathaniel Townsley is one BAMFing boss on the drums

[@SeanMichaelRay]

Can't stop watching and listening!!! Thanks guys!!! That's real music!!!

[@christyedgerton2426]

Music has no color, prejudice, or bias. It is a mode of communication with many different languages. It transcends human racism, and speaks to the soul of the individual. It is God given expression of ones soul

[@TRCOnline1]

Shout amen! somebody.

[@cooldebt]

The groove just creeps up on you

[@theRealAV8r]

Mike's got the worst case of bassface I've ever seen (and I'm a bass player), it's spread to his whole body lol. AWEsome groove!! :)

[@RealAndyOriginal]

Lol @ “it’s spread to his whole body”

[@drtalkboxsa9412]

He s having multiple bassgasms

[@rickryan6271]

@Clemens Schrage Hahaha

[@TrustmeimexperienceD]

Being that far deep in the marianna trench of pocket doesn’t come for free. You gotta give your body to the music

[@cooldebt]

Only surpassed by Joe Dart's bass neck I presume ;) and agree this has an awesome groove that you just want to come back to every now and then.

[@Royalty023]

This is so encouraging for musicians to study... God bless

[@willalexanderr]

That groove and bass at about 7:30 is just pure genius. Omg this group has perfect chemistry.

[@ThomasMetal75]

Holy crap! Michael League. I never heard of you, but God damn! Fantastic bassist with a fabulous sense of rhythm and command over his fellow musicians. I feel like with Michael as your bassist that he'd be able to lead you anywhere with confidence! As a drummer, I'd be honored to jam with him.

[@MrMegajazz]

Tell him not to pull so many faces when he plays

[@soulstart89]

wow im surprised you haven't heard of him. his a beast. Its crazy how they grown as artists since this video.

[@officialmikethompson]

This seriously might be the best thing I've ever seen....

[@erasmus4743]

Nathaniel Townsley just chillin' and Michael League and Cory Henry acting like two buddies goofing off in class. lol. Amazing musicians!

[@spannt5]

One of my favorite drummers Nathaniel Townsley so tasteful on the kit!!!!

[@Jpiersaint15]

I could listen to this all day! Man that Corey Henry has some god given talent!!! This groove is something special man..

[@contactpq]

I love the way these guys play like they have nothing to prove to anyone, especially Nate Nasty on the drums .. they just flow with the feeling of the grove and leave all the guessing and figuring and mess to their haters .. they know they got skillz!!

[@x2beaches]

Agreed, if they make an album, i would buy it STRAIGHT AWAY!

[@245ti]

1:54 Mike telling him to turn up without saying a word and then Cory just kills it with that perfect section it's just so good.

[@aiken000]

The more I listen to and transcribe this, the more i love it. man is a genius and a monster player!

[@yahwehagape]

If you have a transcription, would love to see it!

[@paulmax3185]

It is not very common to see a guy using a matched grip playing this type of music at this level. You hear his blues rock influence ,but you also get the nice jazz top end that comes from advancing to more complicated rhythms. Very nice indeed.

[@handidrummer]

I have know watched this five times in a raw, and it STILL hasn't sunk it on how crazy this groove is. UGH!!!!!!!!!

[@RoyalBlue43]

Stevie Wonder is cryin cause of how good this is,

[@oscarzamorano4602]

Nataniel un genio😊

[@brenttauromusic]

Such musicianship is what makes greatness. And these people are full of it. It's beautiful. Draws people in. Sigh. In awe. :')

[@cooldebt]

Agree. And I like how Snarky Puppy is accessible to and introduces jazz to non-jazz audiences. We have a secret gem like this in Australia - they take VGM and bring jazz to the next generation: kzbin.info/www/bejne/govSYXqejNeAqpo

[@SloppyCat79]

Michael and Nathaniel were so tight, locked in.

[@timweijers9336]

This is taking me places man, the pureness of these guys expressing themselves and having fun is truly amazing

[@Bashanvibe]

wow!!! Im glad to see Corey doing other music outside of church!!! refreshing

[@elrafa782]

Gosh ! Pure groove, pure joy. Crazy stuff.

[@michaelbuchholz2164]

First class! 😊

[@pelhamonetwothree1239]

NAT TOWNSLEY JR. IS ONE OF MY HEROS

[@WitchRobinHunter]

Oh my god this is extremly helping me going through my anxiety rn, those guys are Amazing, they probably came from another planet, god this is extasy.

[@rramos.design]

by now this should have more than 250k views, come on world!

[@MrPaCMaN612]

Music like this .. especially Cory Henry = Inspiration. Period.

[@hendrik_smock]

6 people didn`t like this. how can one not like this? i don`t get it. this performance is just absolutley wonderful and awesome. that spirit and the feel. wow!

[@jazzman1954]

Sometimes I despair with what’s going on in music. Then I heard this!

[@Bigwill4real2008]

WOWWWWWWW dude creepin on the organ is killin it!!!!

[@DavidLerner]

Good Lord, yes. This is the sort of music the world needs more of. Please tell me there's some sort of album forthcoming. It's the good and right thing to do, guys...

[@djflash1958]

To smooth to the groove man. I saw 5 don't likes, im like they just don't get it. Hey Fellas Yall Did This. I love it. Give us more.

[@aguythatisasa]

Jesus, you broke my ears. My ears are broken!!! (IN THE BEST WAY POSSIBLE)

[@dirtrockground4543]

[@MOTIIFkeys823]

[@adammtroutman]

[@BruceNorris1990]

I like this look of Cory’s. Looks like the kinda boy you bring home to see grandma

[@ScherylSings]

Been listening to Cory for a week now & i'm star struck by his GIFT!! #letsnotgetittwisted

[@studabeats5433]

Omg that run Cory did at 3:35 was crazy !!!!!

[@LarryNatalini]

Killin this killer tune ❤

[@cbro777]

That was about 12 dozen kinds of cool right there....wow. Sweet version!

[@kazimzaidi5854]

Their communication is so beautiful in this video. This is a trio of world class musicians having a musical dialogue/conversation.

[@drumnkeys]

[@chinogodinez]

Wow .... Amazing music..... I feel a relief

[@daeslist]

[@skyscraper3550]

Cory Henry is playing the heck out of that organ.

[@bonyt8329]

1:16 the bass was thick

[@geraldgeejones38]

COULD LISTEN ALL DAY!!!! Cory makes that Hammond submit!!! Thanks Michael

[@andx4024]

im very glad to listen to you real good musicians not politicions ;)

[@brettorrmusic]

How far has Cory Henry come since this video?!? And he was already brilliant in 2012.

[@joblack3991]

Cory Henry is always on my mind but he can warm my heart... for sure!

[@chemist141]

the bass players face is priceless!

[@jaymarhonda]

That drop at the end before the fade... Yes Sir!

[@pocketdrummer9192]

NAT TOWNSLEY...ALWAYS LOVED HIS FEEL....SO TASTEFUL

[@onaidraebmar]

[@ieadymusic]

Incredible! It's so uplifting and inspiring to hear such beautiful music.

[@MuzoSTEIN]

EASILY the BEST instrumental version of this song for me, by a LONG SHOT: JUST AWESOME!!!!

[@eblemur]

Those ending chords though....woooooosh!!!

[@rickdenson8996]

Stevie CLASSIC Funked Up!! Awesome GROOVE !! Homage to the Greatest Single Songwriter of our Time. Love the Bass Sound!!!!!

[@mindclip2000]

[@itguru2037]

This along with continuum is magic. Now reach out to me guys to do the vocals

[@Jyancey22]

[@StephenWrightWrightjus]

This makes me "cheese" real hard every time. Their communication is everything!

[@AChadWardenProduction]

EVERYTHING IN THIS IS FUCKING AMAZING! THE FACIAL COMMUNICATIONS, THE GROOVE, FUSION JUICES EVERYWHERE FUCK YEAH! [/CAPS LOCK off]

[@Redtenbachersfunkestra]

Brilliant and what great feel!

[@bak1386]

Mike the face of bass League

[@inHiscare23]

These guys are definitely true to the music. Love the way they're vibing off each other!

[@emmadavi]

Mais quel Groove !!! La grande classe !!....j'arrête l'orgue ! non je déconne !

[@caspercotton]

MUSIC! What a novel concept in 2013...great job!

[@joedessauer]

The power of phrasing

[@musicjoker]

i love the facial expressions but the grove sick regardless these guys are the sickest in the game

[@Gauseltown]

Oh man, just found this and again I'm blown away. What a great band, song everything !!! Love you guys !!

[@kurtwagner7610]

I think the guy on the guitar was in his own world but the organist makes the complexity of the organ keys look easy.

[@andx4024]

to be honest love you guys !

[@JRCOWBOY78]

Sick...sick...sick!!!

[@plpicher]

crazy good groove.

[@antondrumma]

Brilliance! Especilly groove starting from 5:45!

[@drtalkboxsa9412]

Is Cory a normal human being? this man s skill is pathological, sick i tell u

[@JoshShuman]

I genuinely don't know if I could ever jam with Michael because I think I'd be laughing too hard to stay focused, haha

[@TastyChevelle]

That's because you're superficial.

[@praiseHim-r6v]

yeah

[@sdkdrummer]

I think I'd be too annoyed. Just play the song dude. Big difference here. He usually strikes me as the "look how clever I am" kind of player. In his own world showing off. Cory is playing the lead so he gets to take it places, but even at that he is always in a musical moment. Taking the song some place he feels in his heart rather than stuffing some trick lick in wherever he can. And Nat follows beautifully. Chops in service of the groove and where Cory is taking the song.

[@MCH106]

@@sdkdrummer Or maybe he's just really enjoying the music and having a fucking great time.

[@miguelbass8882]

Lol how negative answers to the comment. Im not superficial and would be laughing as well. Michael is a funny guy and his expresions of enjoying the music are funny as well but people want to comment always something negative

[@daddywhatchucookin2924]

Yo tell mike he needs to get the band back together. Only two vids is criminal.

[@RenoLaringo]

If you ask yourself what UNITY means, just listen.

[@Fantastic_Timez]

FANTASTIC!!!

[@Theholydooley45778]

Ah man!! that is so tight! i loved every second!, Nathaniel is amazing! :D
