This guys is the future in drumming , he has proved he doesn't even need a drum kit to blow your mind, as many of you have already seen. He is not only an absolutely stunning performer, he is just something else, when you watch him on stage something in you clicks. Can't decide whether Leprous is a lucky band for having him or he is lucky for being in Leprous, one thing's for certain, we can expect outstanding things from this guy. Can't wait for Rendezvous Point album 2
This dude is one of the best drummers I've ever seen play live & possibly one of the best drummers in all of modern music at the moment. Fucking phenomenal.
"I never want to have a real job. I want to do what I like" is actually really inspirational. There's a reason you got this good. Keep it up Baard, love watching your progress.
This Kid has a Great Story. Thank's Baard for such a Great story & journey, Can't wait for some of your street performance's again Baard. Keep up the Great work :-) .
lmao i remember watching his videos on youtube years back when he played on the streets. maybe 2 years ago started listening to leprous and was amazed and positively surprised at baard being the drummer of the band. amazing.
What an amazing drummer and awesome guy! When I first saw one of his playthrough on a Leprous video I was so blown away by his skill, power, dynamics, creativity! I think its actually quite hard to sound original in progressive music with most drummers sounding like either Portnoy/Generic Djent style but Baard manages to be himself and completely own the tracks he is on! Thanks for the inspiration dude!
Great interview with a soon-to-be legend! Your story is truly inspiring and your skills and talent are definitely something else! I would not be surprised if you became "the next" Mike Portnoy, although I hope you won't leave Leprous later down the road! Much love from Romania & can't wait to see you live!
Love this channel! Baard is among one of the best young drummers without a doubt. Such a creative player, wonderful to see him get here after his start.
An honor to give the 1000 "like" to Baard Kolstad, a referent drummer for me. Keep rocking!🤘
Baard is pure class!
I love you guys! And Leprous!
So are YOU! 🤗
LOVE the new release with Baard!!!😍🎶
One of the best current metal drummers
absolutely!
his name is just perfect, he's a bard of the sticks

Freezing Moon I also can't wait for RP2!!!!
Best drummer around at the moment because he is so inventive

right on, Greg!
"You don't have a choice if you play metal in Norway, you have to play black metal" Amazing.
Well...that was excellent! What a dude!

Keep it up Baard, love watching your progress.
Fascinating that he got UA-cam famous and didn't even know it. Leprous is my favorite band, and this guy rips.
I love Leprous. Seen them live in Manchester supporting Devin. I'm a lead guitarist but was mesmorised with Baard. Absolutely blew me away.

Man, I really wish I could have the same drive as this guy

Amazing
Hell yeah!
Really good! Kinda wished he would’ve talked a bit more about his drumming in Leprous.
thanks!
Thanks! Coming soon!:-)

Legend!
Nice guy and insanely skilled
This is sooo inspirational. Thanks for these videos FreqsTV.
i always say: it's something I can't not do. :-)
Hey! What’s the name of the music playing at the intro and the outro? (When “the WAY” is prompted)
Great story, i'd appreciate it if you could include the links to all the videos he mentioned (street performance, roland championship etc) :)
Good baard
This guy is definately a virtuoso like Thomas Pridgen
The Way logo doesn't pass the body part test. 😂
I do wonder if he will get bored of the new direction that lerprous is going in from what he was saying at the end of that video..
Portnoy is a influence for everyone.
