12 year old guitar wiz Quinn Sullivan opening for Buddy Guy at the Egg

[stevesmithjet2012]

the scary thing is he is playing at a higher level then jimi hendrix, eric clapton, jeff beck at that age and those guys pobably got there at 16-17 or maybe later i cant wait to see the future of this kid

[btr73186]

Saw Quinn open for buddy a couple years ago. He played an awesome rendition of little wing. Right now you can still hear so much of Buddy's influence is his playing, which is of course great, but I think it'll be interesting to see where his style goes over the years.

[darkpainrock]

2:52 to 2:56 fuck ear orgasm :) 

[DevilzAngelxJayB]

it's the greatest feeling in the world to just jam out like that. And that kid's got some talent

[JerichoDitch2]

whats a 12 year old white boy get the blues about ? did his X-Box break ?

He got serious chops tho

[LoverOfSpace777]

Quinn for the win!

[MusicMan3122]

omg what a boss

[NeoOsiris19]

I don't think I've seen someone this naturally talented since Jimi, he doesn't even look like he's trying that hard.

[MrHarmonicahound]

The little shit missed a note plus I think I heard his mom calling him in for supper.

[grapefruit1992]

imagine how awesome would be his concert with Igor Falecki... they should create a band together, seriously...

[pagalidis]

How did he learn to play like that???

[11thstep]

Fuckin-A-Man !!

[explosionguy]

i dont know what everybodys talking about his voice is very good as soon as he gets older he will get the slight rasp in his voice and he will become a god! simple as that

[puffinonindo]

this kid is fuckin awesome. check my channel out if you want to hear more good music from young people.

[gould0453]

i got chills

[okierhino1]

Looks like He's doing it right so far! Joe Bonamassa was opening for BB when he was 12 and Joe's a Guitar God now. But Joe didn't start singing till he was 18 or 20 now at 34 his voice is improving. This guy Quinn is way ahead in that instance!

[MrStr8leg]

Stevie's been reincarnated, Holy shit!

[murf751]

OMG

[viorcustom]

Awesome

[Trygvenystoyl]

Gonna be one of the greates in history. This little man plays from the soul and heart. That is the difficult part that one have to be born with. No limits for u little man.

[1512735]

This kid is fine people as he is,he needs to sing to inprove his voice.His voice hasn't changed yet.Besides,it is almost impossible to be a great musician without singing.Bob Dylan,Hendrix,Stevie Ray didn't have good voices,but they understood how to use what they had.All the great blues players have outstanding vocals,Albert.BB.Freddie King,Albert Collins,Buddy Guy,T-Bone,Robert Cray,Joe Louis Walker,Gary Clark Jr,Robert Johnson.Singing allows you to put more feelings in your solos

[daxiusk]

O_O

[SUPERBWON]

At times it sounds like a little kid screamin in the mic. At times he sounds a little older. He's at that age were his voice is changin and its all good. He'll be even better with age and as long as he stays clean of drugs and booze he'll live to jam for his grand kids. I hope they wont have to just watch old video's of him and wish they could of heard him play just one time.

[VinnyandAtticuslove]

he is sooo nice in person

[thoroughbredelite]

The young man is thorough on the strings. his voice will change and he will really be the heat.

[shandiva2838]

don't sing !!!

[SomeoneStoleMyPants]

@shandiva2838 what are you talking about? He's a kickass singer too!(:

[rollbeer]

I wonder how the kids in his band class feel?

[gcolombo]

Amazing! Buddy sad "what can I say about him"? If Buddy had this question who I am to talk about it? Who can predict what this guy will be play w/ 20 years old? It's amazing, unbelievable!!!

[DexterGameser]

ALL HAIL THE KID!

[pghpa611]

I saw him with Buddy, he was 8 and in 4 years its only gotten better and he was a guitar god then.

Blow me a way Quinn, you make a guitar cry, and for me I can simply die.

Pittsburgh Loves Quinn Sullivan

[8bitcx]

Apart from his voice... how on earth is this possible \0/

Joe Bonamassa should definitely be a mentor for this kid.

[kowalewskipiotr]

cudo



[06mgibson]

the next joe bonamassa

[Angler747747]

@06mgibson 4sure ! I agree 100% He's got Clapton elements in him as well.... don't you think?

[06mgibson]

@Angler747747 yea man :D

[MrChipboymc]

let someone else do the vocals...at least until yours changes

[txlastrebel]

he sings like crap. maybe he should wait until he reaches puberty. Maybe his voice will change for the better

[Jayftw87]

*buys a drum kit*

[lugnaz987]

PENTATONIC SCALE PENTATONIC SCALE SLOPPY PLAYING, INSANE AMOUNTS OF DISTORTION.... From a guitarists point of view he's good for his age but average in the grand scheme... There is nothing original about his playing, but he's still good for his age

[pedrobr88]

im 11 and i can almost play that good.

[remulak1010]

@pedrobr88 Show me that video ?

[pedrobr88]

@remulak1010 ill upload one pretty soon

[kamacazi8]

No Heart...



[greesemonkey1234]

@kamacazi8 What?!?!

[bottom62]

i was at this show.that kid is amazing!

[allanstrawn]

Don't worry about the future of BLUES. As long as Quinn keeps playing, the blues will continue for many,many years.

[sue8500]

he was on Ellen at 6years old

[fennis26]

Kick some ass!

[FISHERBALL]

I saw Quinn & Buddy last night (8/19/11) in Columbus. Fantastic!!!! His voice is changing, he sounds much better singing than he does on this video. The future of electric blues is this boy!!

[estorbajop]

why do i see john mayer?!?!

[kiminki]

Miksi 1 ei pidä tästä

[guitars777]

The only thing I can find to be negative is the constant "blasting" of the guitar. Sure the bells and whistles are nice but I think someone should teach the kid how to play blues.

[RCDriftHunters]

Duuude! STOP THAT! I GET GOOSEBUMBS ALL THE TIME!! o.O

[SpriteMinded]

so how long until he hits his first trip to rehab? i call 6 years

[rokrol9]

@SpriteMinded Wow.....that's all you can say. Your jealousy is showing.

[musiclover9361]

This boy will make the girls go mental in 3 years time! Another revival for The Blues is on the horizon. I can't wait for spotty, 13-year-olds to be queuing up for a Blues gig! Keep it up Quinn.

[tunnel7]

my guitars on ebay tmoz.............. just brill Quinn

[nywilf]

I just sat here laughing........Ridiculous Good...WOW...

[mcassara]

the drummer screwed him up at the end though!!!

[KayakMike1963]

Can you imagine what would happen if Quinn and Desiree Bassett had kids? I bet they'd literally be BORN with a guitar, and the ability to play it.

Wow... what a crossroads THAT would be!

[Thrashaddict7734]

OMG 0 DISLIKES

[Thrashaddict7734]

I'm seeing him!!!! I'm just not looking forward to hearing his voice...

[BRUTUSPLAC]

WWWWWWOOWWWWW and he played GATHERING OF THE VIBES . right next to my job, MY LOSS !

[mspeichts]

When his voice changes, his clothes change and his hair changes, this kid is going to be a phenom. For real. Christ, it's like watching a sunrise for the first time, he's soooo good.

[ptalley47eh]

Oh my sweet Lord! This young man just gives me goose bumps. He's so incredible.

[asil552]

greattt !!!!

[Transterra55]

Good God Almighty!

[00roastedlampost00]

*throws guitar out window*

[mrsuke]

I was totally AMAZED!!!! Saw him tonight. WOW!

[doface1]

Was an awesome show! Did you get the Clapton closer??? why does love...

[mscaruso1]

I was there and this kid is the real deal.  He, Buddy & Joe Louis Walker jammed for 40 minutes. Amazing.

[efincoop]

No question the kid can play the blues, although I had a hard time getting by his voice, especially for the blues. I can't wait to see where his career goes after his voice changes because he certainly shows a lot of potential.

[dynodon12]

Keep up the great playing! You are fantastic!
