Holy Moly, Johah Rocks!
When we hear the phrase “child prodigy”, it often conjures up images of pianists or chess players or figure skaters or mathematicians. Drummers? — not so much. Until now. Check out Johah, a five year old drummer and, dare I say, child prodigy. I dare. Check out all his videos here – http://www.youtube.com/user/JonahRocksOfficial Check out [...]
