I came across this last night and was very impressed. Some very good flat picking, good vocal harmonies, and some decent Delta harp at the end. I think Walsh, Frey & Henley would approve.

Refreshing to see these young people playing the blues. Or maybe they're not that young. Maybe I'm just really old.

"These are exactly the notes I meant!" LOL

Nice arrangement, very cool, and yes they are that young.....babies.

Those guys are great, that was really well done and the guy on the left has a lovely set of pipes, I hate them!

I really like the riff at 2:03. Shades of Chuck Berry in there. But I agree with geordie. I think what I like most overall is the kid on lead vocal's voice. Close your eyes and he'd make you think you were listening to an old blues vinyl from the Delta days.

America's got talent alright. These young dudes have something real. Whatever they might do with it or not.
A great groove, with tons of swing. Yum.

I've been watching Josh & his friends videos for a couple of years now. This is a fun one, but not the best example of his work. Seems there no stringed instrument he can't play and I guess if he put the time into the harp he'd be mopping the floor with most of us.

Here's another that I particularly like (but check out more, it's worth the time):
