  • My first album 'Lack of Sleep' is out now!
    Available everywhere: hyperurl.co/LACKofSLEEP
    My name is Ewan Cunningham, I'm 18 years old and I'm a self taught musician. I started playing drums at the age of 4 and now I'm branching out into other instruments such as guitar, bass, keyboards and vocals. I've been teaching myself to mix, record and film music since I was 10 years old and this is my passion.
    This is a drum cover of "Saturday Night's Alright (For Fighting)" by Elton John from his 1973 album "Goodbye Yellow Brick Road".
    Check out the drums only version of this cover: • Elton John - Saturday ...
    This video was shot in 4K with a GoPro Hero 4 Black Edition and Panasonic Lumix G7.

    This is really well done. This song always wears me out, but Ewan's way of playing it is so relaxed. I like the way he gives his right hand a rest toward the end of the song by playing quarters instead of eighths. And, that exclusive use of snare drum for fills. No toms. I can't wait to go practice this approach to a song that always gave me fits.

    Congratulations on the 10,000 subscribers! You deserve very single one, and more. You're so talented and passionate for what you do and it means a lot to me actually, that I can learn from your videos, and enjoy them at the same time.. Still hoping for an "Astronomy Domine" cover if you ever feel interested. Thank you for EVERYTHING!

    • @ewancunningham

    How about Astronomy Domine for your next video? (of course, with your wonderful vocals you've shown on your previous "Echoes" cover)
    or 21st Century Schizoid Man(on King Crimson's legendary debut album) will be great too
