Wonderful clip. I suspect he’s 4 or close to it in that video. I saw another video of him posted last September where he was also 3 and looked it. He was just as good then however.
Here’s a 2 year old complete with soother and diaper. It gets interesting at 2:30 into the clip where he stands up to use the base drum with the heel of his foot. Not nearly as heartwarming as the posted video, but damn impressive.
I wonder what happens to these child prodigies when they grow up. There have been several great child guitarists over the years but they never seem to do anything as adults. I wonder if having been pushed so hard, so young, by their parents, do they once they get a mind of their own decided to become accountants…?
He fumbled the chopsticks!
awesome – he plays drums better than I do. So cute the way he almost has to stand up to use the pedal the bass drum.
That made me smile. and that made me glad I looked at this blog today.
Thanks
That little guy really gets into it, doesn’t he? Nice find!
Awesome! The kid must have been a super drummer in a past life. There’s probably not another 3 year old in the world that can do that.
EPIC \m/
Rock on Howard Wong!
That was cute.
I just hope he can cope with his instant celebrity without turning to drugs.
OMG that was awesome.
Imagine what that kid can do when he’s, say 16… and on… Very cool clip and it made me smile too!

At age 4 he drives a Rolls-Royce into a swimming pool. By age 6, dead from choking on his own vomit. Just tragic.
The kid obviously loves what he’s doing.
his parents are hoping his drumming pays off so they can afford the hearing aids for the whole family..
Electric shocks. That’s all I’m saying.
He’s a future Neil Peart (Rush)/ Mike Portnoy (Dream Theater).
Train a kid to do anything these days.
Back in the days, we had monkeys for such a dog and pony show. Wait, I think we had dogs and ponies…
If the drugs dont do him in, his parents may just push him over…
He’s doomed, my wife said the golden rule is never to date a drummer, lol.
Very cool find, thanks for sharing.
BTW-She won’t let me get drums, or bagpipes.

It doesn’t always pay to be an early boomer.
oops… bloomer.
