YouTube has been the vehicle of exposure for many artists. Even more incredible than Tay Zonday, who won the world over with his surprising baritone voice when he sang Chocolate Rain, is this four year old drummer, Jonathan Nicklagard.
His talents on the drums are incredible, and he's already won over the hearts of Sweden with his mind-blowing musical talent. After being aired on national Swedish television, the kid has become known all over the country, and thanks to mentions in international media like Sky News, there's a good chance the rest of the world will soon be enamoured with him too.
Why is the little drummer boy so darn good? "Because I have played so much. I think it is fun," he said.
His dad agrees, "He is drumming constantly, not just on his drums, he is drumming on everything all the time."
Would he share his talents by joining a band one day? "Yes, I would, in Iron Maiden because they are cool."
Hopefully fame doesn't take the joy out of it for him.
Will some advertising agency scoop him up to launch their product like Dr. Pepper did with Tay?
