Tom Bukovac And Guthrie Trapp Live At The Underdog In East Nashville

[@marekgitarzysta5193]

The fact that such music exists in 2024 gives hope......

[@BrettPapa]

100% agreed!

[@bluehouse41]

Absolutely!

[@ChrisArlesMusic]

absolutely !!!

[@words4dyslexicon]

i *LIKES* it !

[@riklionheart23]

Yup 💜🙏🏼✨

[@sacsammyfan3662]

Beato brought me here,,, oh my goodness,, what a beautiful treat

[@BrettPapa]

They know how it’s done for sure!

[@Rhoneman]

Same here, heard them on Beato and bought their record. Awesome talent.

[@booworkscouk]

Ditto...

[@BeefNEggs057]

Beato - he’s still out there huh. I’ve blocked his trash too many times - never see him thank gawd.

[@reiddillashaw2383]

I'm here for Tom and Guthrie. And holy cow with the rhythm section, too.

[@BrettPapa]

Yep they are all monsters!

[@ulfskjol]

@@BrettPapa But you could have told the public who they are...

[@mt-nv4jd]

Two of the finest players I ever saw. I'm 75, and have seen a few.

[@BrettPapa]

Agreed!

[@waynehicks1969]

If you are a fan of accomplihed musicians showing off their skills in a tasteful way, you gotta love this.

[@BrettPapa]

For sure!

[@imasudonem]

Bass and drums are killing it! What a band.

[@BrettPapa]

For sure. They are awesome!

[@philf4086]

One of the coolest things to see here is two guitarists playing smallish amps, no PA system, no miking, just organically flowing through the crowd. Fantastic!!!

[@ShadamAran]

It’s Nashville. There is definitely a pa.

[@BrettPapa]

For sure! Sounded great in there!

[@philf4086]

@@ShadamAran I'll take your word for it, I just don't see any mics for the amps. Maybe they have a line out box we can't see.

[@philf4086]

​@@ShadamAran Of course there is a PA for drums (can see those mics) and the vocal mics. You've convinced me.

[@KyleMcAllisterMusic]

FWIW I was there and I've played there too. There is of course a PA for the Vox and drums, but the 2 guitar amps aren't usually mic'ed there. GT was playing his old Pro Reverb, and Tom was (I love this so much) playing the house deluxe reverb. So cool!

[@jakeells3005]

Toms solo is such a psychedelic rollercoaster, incredible

[@lukeroesguitar]

I love how two masters of the guitar can sound completely different

[@BrettPapa]

Totally!

[@17colosal]

Uncle Larry's solo is from other galaxy. Face melting

[@otherfish]

Tom's first break gave me some chills

[@johnny41315]

Tom is the best. Period. Nothing is rushed. No nervous playing. He’s comfortable with silence during licks. He’s talking

[@BrettPapa]

Absolutely!

[@narvul]

I didn't know it was a race?

[@ka4sxi]

My Strat and Tele aren’t really talking to me right now. After hearing this they know what they are capable of😂😂😂 This was awesome.

[@BrettPapa]

Haha!

[@greg3030]

Damn. That’s what mine were doing😂

[@christopherkuefler9839]

Hands down the best duo I have ever seen!

[@BrettPapa]

Yes sir! They are playing tonight and live streaming it!

[@dwstoeckel4740]

This may be the best jam I’ve ever seen /heard/ experienced... mind blown .. ... when I grow up I wanna play like THIS. unfortunately I’m already 60yrs old.. but I’m workin on it anyway..

[@mrredritehand]

They call him "the session man" There's a signature Duesenberg to prove it

[@adamkrauss303]

He is a ton of YT content to explore. Enjoy!

[@abraxas1]

Like most, you probably did hear him several times and didn't know it.

Reminds me of the great music we were getting in the late 70's, in the wake of the jazz fusion influences! Before we lost our way. But, alas there is still hope! Thanks Uncle Larry and Guthrie!

I've been a hobby guitar player for like 20+ years now and these guys have forgotten more than I'll ever know on this instrument. True mastery.

[@trouschyoutub]

Thank you Brett for sharing this with us! For those who don't already know, that first song is a part of Track 2 'The Window' on 'In Stereo' Some of us were fortunate enough to catch them on Twitch Live Streaming the studio session courtesy of 'IamTheWook' when they were developing this track and recording some of the parts. Outstanding!!! Our Uncle Larry is the master arranger and Guthrie was absolutely in the zone and on FIRE!! Many of his improves that did not make it on the track were incredible!! 3+ hours of being a fly on the wall watching all these gifted musicians work their magic in the studio.

[@BrettPapa]

You are welcome!

[@churchofthegreenflipflop2436]

Tom Bukovak is king of the faces!

[@Jesse_Johnson]

I can’t believe it, I finally landed a cybersecurity job That’s going to put me just a few minutes away from these wonderful venues. It’s like a life dream come true. I know it’s packed, and I know there’s a lot of tourism. I’m there for the music.

There is no other town like it! Just don’t spy on us all lol!

[@Гитарныйконструктор]

Том ваще красавчик!!! 🔥🔥🔥it's awesome!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@2earache]

Tom at his gurning best!! And the gentle, supportive drumming during the 4’ Bukovak interlude sort of reminds me of Billy Cox when he was bassing for Hendrix’s Band of Gypsys at the close of the 60’s!

[@aroe3896]

so glad these two are stepping out and getting their own voices out there live on stage.

[@BrettPapa]

For sure!

Heading to Nashville next month. Hope I catch these guys.

Guthrie plays every Monday night at the Underdog. Jack Ruch plays the same place on Thursday.

[@BobWiepert-cp7tn]

The underdog is a great place an absolute hole in a wall ! lol we got three beers for 20 bucks the cheapest we paid in all of Nashville. But besides all that, music is the forefront once they get on stage look out!

[@bobgure]

Thanks, Brett! Next best thing to being there hearing my two faves as well as the magnificent Jordan Perlson!

[@fearnpol4938]

Except Hendrix would’ve been wildly out of tune and over playing caring nothing about the tune and all for the solo!

[@BrettPapa]

You bet! Yeah that band is killer!

[@NorthwestGuitarworks]

​@@fearnpol4938 that's an L take

[@toddwilliams4442]

Two of the coolest cats ever. What I love about this is knowing both of these guys are capable playing with flawless technique @ blistering speed, but they have nothing to prove to anybody. What they played here, every note was intentional and served purpose. Subtle nuances and having something to say with the instrument and the mastery to be able to say it "without yelling" for lack of a better analogy. These two, Brent, Greg Koch, they inspire me to still want to play every minute of everyday I can, after all these years. They remind me how much I love music, and, when my hat is getting a lil too snug regarding my own playing, I can hear them and it's like I'm 14yo, fumble fingering my way thru remarkably bad versions of wildwood flower/proud mary/sweet home Alabama for some poor victim and seeing their "awe, bless your heart" smile as they give pity appreciation. Somehow I didn't know about Guthrie and Tom's album. I HAVE to have it.

[@BrettPapa]

Their album is fantastic! Thanks for watching!

[@timchalmers1700]

Excellent playing by Guthrie and Tom, and Drums and Bass (please fill in the blanks). And many thanks to Brett Papa for recording and posting !!!
