Top Nashville Session Musicians Guthrie Trapp and Kenny Greenberg Live in the Studio

[@activemelody]

how can this not have a million views? this is amazing Brett! Great video work on capturing that session. wow

[@BrettPapa]

Haha thanks man! Feel free to share it haha! Still got to get you over here for that beer!

[@barrywitt1661]

Because it doesn't sound good on an iPhone and there's no rap lyrics.

[@stevetourt4005]

Sick guitar playing

[@Dreams4zale]

@@barrywitt1661 sure it does! Try using AirPods. Makes a huge difference.

[@kgmessier]

Love it every time they go outside and do a diminished run then come back. It's like when you were a kid on the swing set and went just a little too high, then came down and went "Holy sh-t!"

[@BrettPapa]

Haha!

[@mcpappysgolden]

Exactly. Again, so reminiscent of Robben Ford.

[@abfranklin8492]

Phenomenal musicianship and recording. Guthrie Trapp is a jewel.

[@BrettPapa]

For sure! Round 2 coming soon!

[@walkthroughvideos8916]

Holy crap! That was amazing. Sound quality was spot on. I dont know who mixed this for live video. But they were very much a part of the band member. So to everyone involved thank you so much

[@BrettPapa]

Awesome! Glad you liked it! The guy who mixed it is amazing. He is a hometown favorite! His name is Mills Logan.

[@amico78]

I thank Music God that bless us with Guthrie Trapp! Unbelievable talent, full of respect for other musicians, have u seen it? He set everyone comfortable, he listen to Kenny but plays his own thing with such a style! Super pro ears! infinite flow and you want more, the phrase accents, how he cuts the beat. Real Deal!

[@BrettPapa]

Yeah, Guthrie is one of the best improvisers ever and definitely one of the best in town which is saying a lot!

[@jcoulter43]

Keep the band videos coming! So inspiring to watch and learn from these monsters. God bless and rock on 😎🎸👍

[@BrettPapa]

Will do! Thanks for watching!

[@ericcarpenter3263]

Holy hell. That was so good. Keep up these kinds of videos coming. Gears sounds. Great songs and just really great.

[@Daveymallon]

They leave so much space for each other to play and that includes the drummer and the Bass player. It’s the art of playing to the tune.

[@dongentry8645]

Wow! That was fun to watch and listen to! Awesome dynamic, tones and interactive improvisation. What great players! That's why I love live music. It lifted me up to start my day.

[@juanreyrock]

Wow man, absolute higher-level BAND quality. I feel the guitar in this way! I love it, yeah

[@BrettPapa]

More coming soon!

[@simplespotter4016]

my god! thank you Brett for this video

[@BrettPapa]

Sure thing! Round 2 coming soon!

[@southisaac]

Oh my Jesus. I have to learn that lick Guthrie does at 4:29. Love that. Big fan of his. I’ve heard that lick in some of his other playing.

[@BrettPapa]

Haha!

[@thebasementguitarist]

Definitely keep the band videos coming. This was awesome.

[@BrettPapa]

Will do!

[@denismguitar1552]

I would buy this in a heartbeat! It should be on iTunes and Spotify!

It is just the start of an album. They are filming the next half in September I believe.

[@alanwatson9330]

Where do I send money

[@homeguitarplayer9482]

So amazing to witness such great players having musical conversations. The feel, the expression. The pocket and the discourse between parts. So tasty, just wow. Thanks Brett for some more great content

[@BrettPapa]

Sure thing!

[@the-LeoKnightus]

Cool. Guthrie doesn't overplay, and doesn't waste notes. I can dig it. He is one of those guys that isn't a 'lick player', but a pure improvisor.

[@BrettPapa]

Nope he is all melody even when he is cookin! Very respectful to who he is playing with too. Class act!

[@jeffro.]

Yep, dass true! GT is one cool melody-maker! Good wit' the "chicken-pickin' " too!

[@nunoandreserra]

Sooooo good! Nashville is a treasure in the music world today. Virtuoso Musicians who put music first! Thank you Brett! 🙏

[@BrettPapa]

For sure! More coming soon!

[@autocrow]

Awesome guitar playing!! I'm also totally blown away by the bass and drums!!! You don't hear that kind of precision timing excellence every day!! I believe timing is the most important and hardest part of playing good sounding music. YES!!! More of these would be great!!

[@BrettPapa]

Yeah they are an incredible rhythm section. That is Guthrie's usual drummer and he is always awesome. Was my first time hearing Ryan and she was great too!

[@eyckpoetter]

Oh, how much I like this and how much I missed it! Real music, real songs, great musicians around Guthrie! More of that stuff, please. Thx a lot, Brett!

You are welcome! More coming soon!

[@guitarman4242]

Two complete heavy weights in the world of guitar side by side. Just doesn't get better than this if you appreciate fine guitar work at the highest level. Kenny was recently in Northern California doing some studio work close by me in Sausalito. These two are legends that the masses will never understand, or even know of for that matter. Reserved for the lucky ones who have musical intelligence.Just assume keep it that way. If one doesn't get it, no point in wasting time trying to explain.

[@BrettPapa]

Yep they both are world class for sure!

All of you dudes rock. 💯 Funny how life plays out I met Thurston when I was 19 at the time I had no desire to play guitar, I just wanted to sing… now I absolutely love playing guitar & can only practice hard & pray I make it into the next generation of session players. A decade goes by fast that’s for sure… that day Thurston inspired me without me even noticing but since then I now follow & am inspired by all you guys! Great dudes with great content… Thanks for everything I learn a ton from y’all. 🙏🏻🇺🇸🤘🏻

This is why so many want to play an instrument. In hopes of one day just jamming with some friends. Love seeing folks in their element just playing to play and making it up as they go. Everybody enjoying the moment, doesn't get any better. Like seeing the Bass taking off on the second song just doing some runs which fit right in. Niiiiiicccceeee all around.

[@BrettPapa]

Awesome! Thanks so much for tuning in!

[@abfranklin8492]

I love the fact that Guthrie plays with mostly clean tones. It's so refreshing in an era when everyone is using so (too) much distortion.

[@BrettPapa]

Yep he always has great tones. Barely uses anything. Just bone tone!

[@mrmatthew2443]

Great point I thought the same thing That tele sounds beautiful clean

[@mrmatthew2443]

Oh and that tremolo Guthrie is using must be a harmonic trem that was on some fender amps.. it’s glorious

[@MichaelGrecoGuitar]

Wow I really enjoyed that. The musicality is just amazing. They went from rocking vibe to something really beautiful and mellow. These Nashville cats are somethings else.

[@BrettPapa]

For sure! More coming soon!

[@dalehobbs8782]

Just beautiful interaction between guitars- and the bass and drum are just too tight behind them. . I love this! Thanks

[@BobEstremera]

Man! What a funky, nasty, way cool groove that first piece is followed by the beauty and softness of the second. Man, these guys, and gal, are really a great combination of how music, and the musicians that play it, get to your soul.

Nashville is in first place for recording, musicianship, & the place to make it musically. We got everyone including Vince Gill, Tom Bukovac, and most importantly GUTHRIE TRAPP.

[@paulpulati9613]

Great video, Brett! Thanks for that. Wonderful to see a brilliant band at work and creating some very beautiful music. Can I be so bold as to make a constructive suggestion for more videos which we would all like? Most of us who watch your channel are musicians and it would be great to spend a little longer on the close-ups of the playing - including all four of the musicians! - and not so much of the popular quick shots and move-on style of filming. Also, it would be nice to see some of the bass runs close up, and maybe the drummers would like to see more of the percussive technique. Hats off to four exceptional artists!

[@BrettPapa]

For sure. I didn't edit this video. I had to have other people edit the video do to time constraints. We had limited equipment and time so it really was just a grip it and rip it filming. Next session things will definitely be planned out more. Thanks for watching!

I think the band idea is fantastic. All the things you guys have been teaching I feel ultimately leads to the goal of the song in the context of a band. The song is everything and the extreme focus on quitar/technique/theory sometimes clouds the view of musical narrative that is a song . Seeing how it all comes together is extremely beneficial and I am thankful to you guys for it. Nice job.
