Todd Matthews: “Little Drummer Boy” the Way We Like It: for Solo Bass
Editor’s note: we’re celebrating the holidays this week with some awesome (and sometimes funny) holiday videos. Be sure to check back every day for some holiday cheer, bass-style.
If you’ve been looking for a great video of Santa dancing while playing bass, look no further. Double bassist Todd Matthews sent us this video of his “Holiday Looping,” where he gets in the Christmas spirit by jamming out “Little Drummer Boy.”
The clip, which he dedicates to his father, is proof that Santa can get down.
In his time with No Treble, Kevin has met hundreds of amazing bassists and interviewed icons like Jack Casady, Victor Wooten, Les Claypool, Marcus Miller, and more. He's a gigging bassist performing jazz in Northern Virginia and bluegrass with The Plate Scrapers up and down the East Coast. Kevin appreciates all genres of music, from R&B to metal and everything in between. Connect with Kevin on Facebook and check his performance schedule on his website.
Beautiful, my fav carol for sure.
Love the build up… touching tribute… chuckle-worthy too…
I wanna be “chuckle worthy” :) hope ur havin a good day…
Good Santa. When a remake is as good as the original, it’s GREAT.
Even with the sound off, this is fun to watch!
