Brilliant comment.
OMG you're back! YES!!! I love your channel for years and keep coming back!
Oh I like this Jonathan! Always exciting to see some new funk grove tutorials! Look forward to getting stuck into this! Thank you!
Once in a while I get to hear tunes which lead to goose bumps, yours is one of them ^^
I'm not sure I've ever seen anyone have more fun playing piano. Fun to watch and listen to, as well. Nicely done, sir!
Nice funk groove!! Love it when the vid first shows you the whole lick and then breaks it down. Because you can hear it and determine if you wanna stay for the rest or not. Thanks for posting!
I remember you! A funk lesson you did years ago, an advanced funk groove. Different channel. It was awesome. I was just a kid. You always manage to get me on the piano and get practicing. Everything you teach is really fun to play. Really great guy!
Thanks to KZread algorithms your clip just popped up .... Worth a sub without question. Great screen presence & you explain it very well. Brilliant!!!!
Funksmash! What a pleasant person you are - and such a great teacher. Just found this by accident, thought I would watch it for fun - and I ended up learning something instead. Thanks for sharing yourself and your gifts! Great vid! Subscribed!!!
So glad I found your channel I have been searching for funk specific keyboard guidance
still loving it! i hope you do more on this channel. this is one of my lowkey favourite channels ever.
Wow ! I just discovered your channel and I am blown away. This is song is above my level because I haven't played in over 10 years due to a right middle finger injury but I want to give this song a shot. It will probably take a couple of months to learn and play it but I will send you a link when I'm comfortable in playing it. Thank you so much for giving me the spark to challenge myself and get back to playing.
Great way to start out the New Year learning a cool something. Funksmash!
Funksmash! This is an awesome tune and I'm really happy it ended up in my recommendations. I'm going to devote April break to watching all of your old videos :P
Jonathan, you're killing it! Love your grooves :)
This is great stuff. Watched up into the A section. The performance and tutorial were both awesome. I couldn't play this at tempo, but I'm definitely checking out your other videos. Thanks for sharing this. Nice playing! Really fun jam.
Ah, this is exactly what I needed for my piano motivation. Great chops!
FUNKSMASH! Always love your work Jonathan, you inspire me with every video you produce. I'm gonna do my dam best to get this one down and show you!
Funksmash these vids you make are great fun , learning a lot thank you.
Funksmash! Such an awesome learning experience! Thank you so much for this treat!
Couple years late but that groove funksmashed my fingers. Thanks !
SmashFunk! I'm learning this as we speak. Thanks for the backing track. Keep up posting!
Great tune and tutorial man! Like your tutorials soooo much. Keep on going!
Thank you for sharing all the necessary material on your website, very generous.
Your videos are always worth the wait! Very Zesty content
This is the first funk piano music I’ve learnt, I love it thank you! You explain so well and clearly how to play it, I’m not as fast as you yet but I’m getting there !
Love your music and work Jonathan, keep up funk! Funksmash!!
That is very tricky stuff! And I like it! ...After several days of learning, I finally got to the end of it! Thank you

Yup. I too have spent a ransom's amount on sheet music and backing tracks. That being said, if Jonathan had a paypal account listed, I'm sure people wouldn't mind being generous.
Man! I cant even believe you exist! This kind of video is the ultimate content to learn, you do it so good deamn. Im not that much advanced but i cant way to start playing like you!
Wow. Just wow. That’s solid all the way around. Funkalicious for sure!
FUNKSMASH! Now I know what I'll be working on for the next couple months :) Thank you!
Oh my! I just can’t stop discovering the greatest teachers that I’ve never known in my life just on KZread. And that’s it month by month. It’s like an open college just in my hand. I hope that I could get enough time to spend on this treasures.
Great to listen your new composition! Funksmash!
This is beautiful! Beautiful music and a beautiful man! You're ability for rhythmic playing is other worldly.
I'm hooked! I love the joyful, funky impishness of this channel. Equal parts love of the groove, deep applied theory, pandering free teaching and humor.

Gotta admit, at this point im just watching these to enjoy these tremendously funky grooves.... I'll try the tutorial, but in the meantime, just grooving along with some head-bobbin'! 😉 Great grooves!👍
Amazing ! SO fun ! Thank you Boss 👍🎹
Man "Lighter" I am delighted!!!🤩
What a wonderfully crafted video. High quality stuff! Edit: subscribed ofcourse (:
You are the real Mr FUNK man. All of a sudden I want to change from saxophonist to FUNK piano. Thanks.
glad you re back
I have never seen better technique or more solid funk. It is my sincere dream to be a player like you some day. I don't have a lot of hope...... But just keep doing what you do. Some people think this is easy. They are so wrong.
Great stuff. Looking so much forward to our recording session.

Warm thanks for sharing this groovy trick. Now happy subscriber :). Cheers from Brussels buddy! :D
Favorite one yet! And thank you so much for the sheet music and the backing tracks - us classically trained musicians just aren't as cool as the rest of you and really appreciate the help. RECOMMENDATION FOR YOUR NEXT PIECE: Christmas! - I would love to see what you could do when you bring your flavor of funk to a Christmas tune. That, and us mere mortals will need a couple of months to get it down, so don't wait until the snow starts falling.
Oh boy. That is so good.
Really a good job. Keep it up!!
I cried tears of joy halfway through the opening jam.
Holly crap... This was an amazing funksmash. I don't even know how to play piano, but stayed till the end... this was entertaining... And the song is a Bomb..... an absolute FUNKSMASH
Superb video! I will practise this! :D
very clear explanation , thank you!
Already practicing this one!
Fantastic video, I’m so so happy I stumbled upon your channel! You’re awesomely positive and this tune made me glad and put a smile on my face :) can’t wait to learn it! Please keep up the fantastic job!
