    This kid is the future.
    My little brother started playing the bass when he was 8 and now he is 19 playing for churches and groups here in Georgia.
    I couldn't believe my baby brother could play the bass and nobody taught him.
    He asked for a bass on his 8th birthday and taught himself how to play.

    10 yrs after this, and yes, he has become what we knew he would after watching this. He is amazing, and I got my tickets for his show on the 28th of this month in Buffalo NY. Been following his progress since I 1st stumbled across him about 8 yrs ago. Amazing talent. A true natural.
    I remember watching a 12 yr old kid playing in a blues bar named Cheers in Ft Lauderdale years ago. I thought he was amazing, and he was, but not in the same league as Quinn. That other kid, was Derek Trucks. He has grown into a great guitarist as well, but still..Quinn rules!

    While sounding like a young Michael Jackson, vocally, and showing more poise and dexterity than B.B. King ever could, this kid is destined to be the next big thing.

    This boy is awesome. I'm a fifth-generation musician - my dad was a Vaudeville star, and his dad played 1st Trumpet with Sousa - I've been around talent all my life. Take it from me, this kid is the real deal. I hope his parents continue to nurture his talent, keep him practicing and keep him grounded. He will go far.

    The kid is cute! I love how he tossed his hair, flicked his hip and smiled as he was actually having fun. All children have to have some music in their life. It helps them learn analytics and socialization. They don't have to make it a life long commitment. But they should be given the opportunity.

  • @randypenn8763

    If he's this good at 8, he'll be so lights out at age 10, forget the teens and adulthood. ....he just made those age groups null and void with his playing.

Yet how old are those people? 20? 30? 40+? This kid in this video is 8. Considering boys usually develop a little later than girls, he's had what, 4 years, tops, to really pick up what talent he has? So stop being jealous that he gets some shine for this. If you want it, go earn it, and stop bitching.
