Caleb is the MAN! Side note: So good to hear Slipknot on the Ellen show haha

[tmbt]

The look on his face when he sees that snare is everything!

[bobowens]

What's more shocking than this kids killer drumming is he actually got me to watch a clip from the Ellen DeGeneres show.

The future of metal drummers is alive and well with this young man! Way to go, Caleb!!

[shawnannul]

I cried when he got the gift. As a drummer, I'm rooting for this kid

[rubronegro]

I wish more people would appreciate this music

Slipknot never let me down.

[kamilgodlewski]

Its scary to me how good he will be when he actually grows up

It is so satisfying to see children play instruments and create art. The world needs young creative minds more than ever.

This kid has the form of an adult drummer. The fluidity and the technique is already there.

I love Slipknot since way back and so glad to see real muscians like them being played by this little rocker :)

Thank you so much 💙 Caleb loved every second 🥁

I’m no drummer, but this kid has CHOPS! He’s gonna be a monster drummer when he gets older.

[JacobEaves]

This kid doesn’t realize how good he already is, and the natural humility in that is beautiful. The sky is the limit for Caleb!! Rock on!

His hair style his jacket his shoes his everything is killing.
Young Man I love you.

There's nothing more honest than the joy of children. Watching the last seconds when he got the snare already made my day and woke about 20 mins ago 😅

He is already iconic for even knowing the band Slipknot and then you add the drumming into the mix which makes him TWICE as iconic. Just wow. Blown away!

The part where he got the snare drum He was saving up for as a present was priceless!

[davidbeauchamp]

What a humble but honest little guy. Heck of a drummer. He will be awesome as he continues to learn. God bless his talent. Wow.

[Darylrb]

Been drumming for a very long time. The genuine look he showed when the Snare came out. Definitely overcome with emotions

I have been following Caleb for a long time on YouTube, he is by far one of the biggest talents and you can see his evolution. Hard to believe he’s 7 and has been doing YouTube covers for around 3-4 years already! Rock on lil dude🤘🏻
