Fredrik Strand Halland - Little Wing

[stratelite]

He's really matured here.

[99Sorc]

if i remember correctly he performed this standing on water.

[sludgefingers]

At 14 he already knew how to get the best sounds out of a Strat.

[sweddehli]

otroligt bra. kempe flott



[JojoplusBo]

this kid is amazing!....he was born to play, I can feel it from his soul!!

[skoleSB]

He took my breath away!!! I've never heard anything like this from a kid, and i saw many of them. Awesome, just keep on movin' fredie, we need Jimi and Stevie again!!

[thisnotmyname]

Yes he's got amazing skills but all he's doing is covering legendary songs (with some improv). He needs to write his own material and then we can judge how great this guy is. Just hopefully he won't get stuck up his own ass like Joe Bonamassa.

Oh and if I'm just being ignorant and have missed his own songs here on YouTube feel free to tell me the names of the songs.

[hermanhenry78]

the scale is always the same. please, fredrik, dont do that face, look like a monkey smashing its guitar on a tree..

[EricssonAnton]

14 years old and pulls off fucking little wing better than anyone of you suckers could do it... Stop hatin and sayin he can't feel the blues. He lacks life experince give him a break, he will grow to be one of the best guitarist in the world if he keeps playin and gaining some years. LOVE YOU MAN!

[luceknight]

THE WORLD HAS TO SEE THIS BOY!!! WHAT IS HE DOING STILL HIDDEN!!!

[milodaman2]

his facial expressions make him look as if he was in the special education class.

[joe1969812]

WOW another young blues prodigy!! Bout time!!!

[IMAGIO1952]

MOS DEF ANTHONYKINGOFKINGS! I'M WITH YOU ON THAT! REAL TALENT MAKES ROOM FOR ITSELF!

[cjabluesman]

don`t smoke crack!!!

realy, don't use drugs or chopps!!!! we need a hero!!!

[jrixtine]

This assembly of musicians and the material being played is far above the criticism of any YouTube commentator that I've seen. I wish that those who make their comments give equal effort to supporting young talent in money matters, maintaining a healthy environment, providing safe activities outside of music, and establishing the contacts needed to persue a career in music.

[MacGyver8806]

it sounds like the keyboard player forgot what chords to play for most of this...

[viggethemaniac]

His face expressions ruin the vid ._.

[jonchappell2]

I'm just glad that there are some young people focusing on this great music! Don't have to pick the best. :-)

[s4lvial]

This kid isnt good enough to die yet.

[Wowvidsftsion]

First Jimi Hendrix past away.... now Gary Moore, the blues today will NEVER be the same, please god! get this young artist a good start!

[acorns911]

TheNextPro18 has replied to your comment on Fredrik Strand Halland - Little Wing: Has been reported for threats..

[acorns911]

LMAOOOOOOOOO..I am a cop dude...my friends are cops..come on

[TheNextPro18]

you look fucking gay when you play

[acorns911]

@TheNextPro18  when ppl make comments like you...you must be a miseralbe person..and only wish that you could play anything like this kid.

[TheNextPro18]

@acorns911 im transferring your adress through my hard drive me and my gang are gonna pay you a visit... watch what you say over the internet.

[AciDXRaiN27]

@TheNextPro18 lol you fail. "watch what you say over the internet" HAHAHA like you would do anything. heres a plan. you see that red x in the top right corner? click it. then turn off your computer. then go outside. you will find there is light, and trees, and even fresh air O.o you should try it sometime. its pretty nice. also there are women out there. but i highly doubt any of them would want you.

[MegaDancingdog]

The kid is almost as good as me. and thats pretty good!!

[BluesHorizon]

@Strokher

It is always difficult to compare very young musicians with already older musicians. Fredrik was 14 years old in this video. Cody Jasper should be at least 20 or 22 years old. This is a serious difference. Most young musicians first adapted music from established artists and then they begin to emerge their own profile and style. As an example, also a Joe Bonamassa has once begun playing cover songs by Eric Clapton. Apart from that, FSH is writing his own songs since he is 15.

[99Sorc]

@BluesHorizon fredrick holand strand has spoken love into my spirit. how many other artists have truly done this before?? zero.

[MrRoxxstar]

12 moronic Justin Bieber fans checked "dislike"... I diots.

[byeyourjune]

best

[BonzaiBen]

Major blues orgasm.... That is freakin' awesome.

[sunshine1649]

This kid is the next Stevie Ray and Hendrix all rolled up in one... Damn, he is good.

[sebolx1]

WOW !!! new Jimi Hendrix :] SUPERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR !!!

[jrichardsphotography]

Jimi and Stevie must be up in guitar heaven smiling when they here this boy play!

[McScottson]

this kid plays fucking amazing, but he should tone down the facial expression, its just too much...,

[EKLIPZENTERTAINMENT]

There just are no words good enough to express just how great this is .........

[Memphis5546]

this kid makes me wanna put the guitar down lolz :P

[gildigol]

@Memphis5546 Never put the guitar down !

just have fun , it doesn't matter if he's better you...

[Memphis5546]

@gildigol i'll never put the guitar down xD only strive to try and become as good as the greats like hendrix and srv, but still this kid can fuckin play amazingly big ups,

[PeanutXGORE]

Close your mouth, its not cool

[lemmonorange68]

@PeanutXGORE he's trying to make it look like he's full of soul, but it just looks like he's copying Jimi and SRV

[zealousdesigner]

@PeanutXGORE I think I speak for quite a few ppl when I say that no one cares what you think is cool. Appreciation for this music comes from the intense skill and soul required to perform it well, not the quirks of the person who plays.

[jonjonsam]

These faces are getting pretty ridiculous. But this boy is going to be one of the best!

[insikification]

why does he always open his mouth when ever he plays a lick? xD that's just crazy.

[atlastman]

I like SRV and Jimi. And, I like music at which he tries to aim. Stevie made up the Stevie's tone and music of influenced great musicians. He also believes a thing so by the growth in the future. It will expect it in the future. Cuz he has the shine as much as possible with a great guitarist!

[wiskay123]

do what ya do man! your great!

[sweddehli]

put some deep soul feeling into it and u be best in the world !

[GeneralEisenhower]

hendrix plays it really soft

[GeneralEisenhower]

sounds more like SRV than Hendrix

[djausk]

@GeneralEisenhower SRV is his biggest role model iirc.

[theword10]

great playing but the faces are fake, hendrix and srv only made those faces cuz they were stoned as hell

[djausk]

@theword10 really don't need to be stoned to make faces, if you feel the music float through you, it's enough.

[theword10]

@djausk well he must have experienced alot of blues at 15 to have the music flowing threw him that much... or hes faking it

[99Sorc]

@djausk his faces = your most powerful orgasm on steroids you joker

[johnduss]

Dudes i've been playing for 20 years and this kid inspires me....great job!

[yellowhammer2]

Hendrix is a famous name, so people assume he would blow this kid out of the water. There is no doubt that this kid can play every bit as good as Hendrix ever could. That sounds like sacrilege, I know, but its true.

[jojo12196]

I never thought id see the day when i said "Wow, those faces are faker john mayer's" guess there's a first for everything.

[simondude1]

That face is not fake!

[wrongwayup]

People can whine jealousy whatever they want, but this kid is one hell of a motherfucking guitarplayer.

[JHetfield88]

what's wrong with his face ? xD

[TheBluesmountains]

it's so easy to see when guitar players fake the hendrix face^^

[sewallm60]

@TheBluesmountains stupid fuck

[loknar86]

can play yes but god he looks wierd when he do it o.O

[oeyesea]

I wish I had enough talent to have my own troll such as 19thSFGA

[mrsbin]

is music really getting back?

[loknar86]

@mrsbin nope its not

at least not in a big way just a few artist ;)

[redlaadb]

this guy simply plays like hell and, but that's my opinion, he really got the blues and rocks too...

[Mofl0611]

Is he passing a kidney stone?

[malliostar]

Too good. There are no words. Congratulations;)

[PseudosDeGuerre]

Talent man. Very impressed.

[kennykins420]

let it rip kiddo

[chasbate1947]

blew me away he's great

[SRV4evr]

This kid is pretty amazing.

[anthonykingofkings]

The next Hendrix! Please God, we need someone like this kid. Bring back the Blues!

This kid is fucking fantastic. Hopefully he's able to get famous and become a well-known household name. He deserves it, much more than the Jonas Brothers and Justin Beiber.

This kid has talent!

[MrBucketheadFan]

@anthonykingofkings It can't be a next Hendrix, there were and will always be only ONE Hendrix.

[lucaslovespie]

@anthonykingofkings well if you noticed hes playing SRV's cover, so i say hes the next SRV! great talent, he's an inspiration

[mrzeppelin4life]

@anthonykingofkings you're right we do need more good music to be made , but let me tell you something iv learned, the blues never ever die, they stay in everyone's soul, we just need people to realize this is the good music, but not to bring it back because it is not dead

[Strokher]

@anthonykingofkings

dude these kids never go far because they are merely cover bands...nobody makes gold anymore...they dont make their own music...they just perfect copying someone else...if you want to see someone that i like that makes his own stuff and is incredibly good at guitar check out Cody Japser

[Saulera777]

Does anybody knows what model is this Strat with gold hardware?

[t3r3nz]

@Saulera777 It has the two point, block saddle bridge and it looks like abalone inlays, so my guess is a 50th Anniv. Deluxe Stratocaster.

[simondude1]

Lets see how many thumbs up we can get for this :D:D

[simondude1]

Bæste gitaristen æ har sett! bedre en slash!!!!

[tpioneer1]

What a talent

[vanessablack09]

Bravo!!!

[vanessablack09]

Bravo!!!

[vanessablack09]

Bravo!!!

[TheSvenien]

Kannon Fredrik. .Nå måååå vi snart jamme igjen:)

[spikeri812]

john mayer??? u serious? dude?

[larstheguitarguy]

john mayer is playing bass!!!

[jesuzizinmybedroom]

@larstheguitarguy lol looks LIKE him

[09kitty23]

i wanna see this kid play with john mayer.

[delpieric]

John Mayer sucks though. But I wouldn't want to see this kid play with, say B.B. King or Clapton, so he can have John Mayer. :)

[SG19755]

very well played i must admit and also again thats pure feeling.

[apmn321]

nothing new. impressive when hes 12 but its nothing new 2 years later. same old pentatonic srv licks

[Stratonaba]

that's pretty amazing... really.... a new interpretation without makin' it meaningless....

[dixwinger]

THATS MY TAKE A SHIT FACE

[gabiosie]

@lespaulrock1998

His Texas Flood when he was 12 is pretty unbeatable.

[reimundklang]

Ein Clip in feiner Bild- UND Tonqualität. :-)

Fredrik weiss echt wie man mit ner Gitarre umzugehen hat. ;o)

Bin ja echt mal gespannt was es als nächstes auf die Ohren gibt.

[fender69likar]

...man...i think this guy is one of best young guitarists in the world.....he's doing what hendrix and srv were doing....it's making communication with the guitar damn....just look at his face...it's pure feelling.....i hope you understood me.

P.S. Sorry for my bad english

[wecandance420]

is just me or do young guitarist do a jimi hendrix face

[busternsady]

when I was a kid i made those same expressions..priceless...

[1994AlexJohnson]

how old is he?

[Eggesdorf]

On this video, 14 years.

[fattirevsbud]

He might just be the reincarnation of good Ol' SRV

we'll see if he starts drinking and doing a lot of drugs then that' SRv fo sho lol

[dennis280792]

OMG hes good!!!

hahah xd his guitar-crying is funnier than gary Moore's :P

[lespaulrock1998]

So much better than his purple haze or his texas flood

[brunoliamat]

Really nice and good sounding version. He added a few parts/riffs that really clicked into the song. This boy does have talent and the so called "feeling" to play. Regards!

[TheSvenien]

So young:) and amazing on Jimi allready:) wow.See forward to next jam already:)

[12prinsen]

LOL hes very good bud his faces when hes playing xD

[NoNonsenseDude7]

All of you who have something bad to say... just don't. Why even go there? This kid is pretty damn good, especially for just being that: A KID.

Instead of picking on things you think could be improved upon, why don't you instead congratulate him on what he's accomplished so far?

If you could really play like that - you wouldn't lose one breath berating someone else... you'd have the intelligence to know that being an ass only makes you look bad, not the kid playing guitar on the video.

[earognal]

Konge!

[SaleeRain]

My heart just stoped!

[Skiimad]

I go to school with Fredrik. His 16 years old now. And god he can play like hell!

fuck you 19thSFGA..

[DSalois1]

Hes good, but his faces are crazier then john mayers when he gets into it

[domi64200]

very good talent fredrik

[Ciompi89]

he plays too much. Man just be yourself not SRV. You rock!

[mtenhagen]

Beautiful!! And I'm an old guy.keep goin' Fredrik.

[19thSFGA]

He will be like David Hasslehoff "Famous in europe" LOL dont quit your day job kid!

[19thSFGA]

Another tired cover of this song. This is one of the weakest performances of this song ever it sounds like a big constipated ass just bulging to blast out a big plug of SHIT.

[limbride]

Funny how a 12 year old can make so many miserable people so jealous they have to make up shit to criticize him for. You guys are a sorry bunch. Especially the ones of you that have terrible guitar videos of yourself out. Tone deaf morons, but good read :)

[SurvivalSkating]

comin from you the fuck up with no vids of himself. can you even play?

[limbride]

What does that have to do with anything?

One thing is sure though. I sure as hell can skate better than you, shitstain.

[SurvivalSkating]

See, it has to do with a lot of things. You could be bullshitting to fuck and we cant tell cos its over the internet. For all we know your probably some little gimp with no friends who sits on the internet all day. Get some vids up of yourself so we can judge what your good at. Until then, fuck off.

[limbride]

A crippled seas turtle can do a better kickflip than you. I were skating back when skateboards looked like bananas and I never claimed to be able to do anything in my original comment. I was actually bashing haters that you now have mistaken me of being.

So puh-lease, piss off back to clown school and learn some rhetoric. Or practice your kickflip a little more..

[SurvivalSkating]

" you guys are a sorry bunch" " tone deaf morons ". And its Sea* turtle mate. And i replied because you said that peoples guitar covers were bad so i asked if you could even play. Which you obviously cant..and yet again how do i know your not blaggin over the internet? lots of people do it. your probably some pathetic kid with no mates that want him around that sits on his computer all day. :)

[limbride]

Oh noes, the kid found a typo. I'm gonna go cry a river.

And yes I were referring to the people that obviously can't play guitar themselves but come here and bash this kid that obviously can play. And if you have problems with that I couldn't care less because I know you're a little kid. I've seen your video. And it made me LOL.

[SurvivalSkating]

Not a little kid like, and you havent seen my guitar vids have you :)

[aceofspades828]

also, he's lost that shreedder edge to things that was major in his old stuff, well done freddy boy

[aceofspades828]

0:36-0:50 is haunting

[mastercallec]

A really good cover but a cover none the less. I think it's for him to start playing for himself instead of playing like SRV. But really nice playing really.

[aceofspades828]

i'm the same age as this kid, been playin for 6 years and pracice 2 hours a day... i dont come close.... ta;ent can be learned

[terrygeorgio]

you rock i cant even tell you how i enjoy listing to you play

[garrethdavis]

great stuff. i love his passion

[sirikalvik]

you can tell withouth sound what this song is about, and its all passion. This kid here is a true prodigy. The way he perform is genious and true. There is no way blues lovers wont get goosebumps by this art right here.

[macjack16]

I LOVE IT !! thanks

[liljimr]

What you've just witnessed is a young man who "feels" what hes playing......

You've done the late SRV proud

[schmoat14]

hey Esmitherz64 why does it say on your profile that you're 23? hmmm.. most people can't play this well as an adult so.. try to be a little more open to people who are prodigies

[awrongsuffered]

there are a lot of jelouse people on youtube i see by reading most of the coments here !

this rocked for being only 14 srv would be proud of the way he nailed this

[poncedeleon99]

btw, "eat a peach" refers to pussy eating...

[HelenMelon1968]

What were you doing when you were fourteen? it wasnt this and if it was it was no where near as good thats for sure. he could be truly awesome, plane crashes and cocaine binges aside.

[R2theizzle91]

you fucking wish

[kratky07]

the kid can play lead, but cant play rythym chrords worth a damn

[fend14]

so true

[soilworker1993]

yeah rpm4565 is right. To play this is a thing, but to make it up is a way bigger thing.

[SLO1970]

Unbelievable for 14! And Dwayne Allman met his demise on a motorcycle NUMNUTS!

[plantguy666]

The kid's fuckin phenominal. quit being so douchy about his so-called lack of soul. The boys got it.

[rpm4565]

Excellent cover. Much of it note for note. Great fingers. Excessive mouth work. But what if anything was his own? I know he's young and I hope he continues to grow and stays out of helicopters and off motorcycles. But he needs to grow his own musical soul. This is just good SRV repeat that we all love because of what it reminds us of. I hope he studies the sources of the blues and builds his own soul to match his clear instincts and skills.

[mynameisstevo]

what is the motorcycle reference to. fill me in h

[rocklicks1]

hes referencing bob dylan and srv.

[rpm4565]

@rocklicks1: Dylan DID have a motorcycle wreck, but he stayed around and continued to play and create. Duane bought it on a cycle and SRV on a helo.

[LedZeplican]

duanne allman. the guy got creamed by a peach truck. hence the name of the album "eat a peach" made by the allman brothers band shortly after his death.

[rpm4565]

@mynameisstevo: Duane Allman was killed on a motorcycle and SRV died on a helicopter, both too early. Hope this gentleman lasts much longer. 

[jadaudiodesign]

Salut Fred ...cool de revoir cette vidéo... pour ton souvenir j'étais le sonorisateur ce soir là, c'ètait un plaisir......continue comme ça mon pote...mes micro sont contents avec ton rock..lol a+ JD

[ascp67]

Brilliant, Simply Brilliant

[joeysasickciant]

ive never seen someone so young play with so much soul and feel. thats insane dude!!

[totibahiense]

salio cope el tema,pero la cara del loko,me parece que exajero, abrazo

[alabastersmom]

Don't you know that every kid these days is taught about internet safety and not giving out personal information? Only perverts scout out kids on the internet. Go get some help.

Yeah, I just BET you love kids...

[nateadkins1221]

dude you got the fuckin blues. dont stop. do me a favor and keep playin. i love your effin style. you got so much life ahead of you. and if you love blues as much as i do then you will make it your life. live it love it own it. be the next srv! you can do ANYTHING if you put your mind to it!!!

[moonpie66666]

You're a damn fool VolvicApfelmann. The guiter gods you mentiones as in "do we need more of..." all learned and covered their "guiter gods" until they found their own style and voice. This kid has real talent. You go back to masterbating on Facebook.

[VolvicApfelmann]

well its really impressive but do we need another SRV,Hendrix,Clapton e.t.c?

[knobsworth]

ummm . yes .. !

[staygo1d]

But seriously, this kid is very impressive. Stevie would be proud.

[audioslv]

HAHAHAHA, reminds me of Steve Vai in behaviour.... :D:D:D
