when your phone rings in a jacob collier concert

this boy is so laid back he's freaking horizontal

[damienolympia]

Not only does he take it in his stride and not get upset, he uses it to create humour and enhance the experience, simply the best.

[joshuanewhouse]

man, everyones talking about how laid back it was but that's actually so insane to be able to casually play the exact chord with no effort

[TheMrFixxxer]

I like how in uncomfortable situation (for person who's phone is ringing, people can go away from the music, start judging, or laughing, or just checking what is going on), he made people laugh (distracting them from actual phone ringing, and creating a bit of time for person to mute the phone), and then he increased the volume on the next verse so he can bring audience back to the magic of music, instead of keep laughing on the joke he made (where audience can drift off from the moment). Great musician and performer.

[GAArunabh]

One of the most relaxed performers ever. The audience is like friends to him.

For anyone wondering. The song is a cover of Danny Boy. Search Jacob Collier - Danny Boy

[ladaemon__]

this is what pure creativity looks like. totally in tune with his environment. fluid + adaptable. you love to see it

[seanrimada]

He’s like guys don’t get distracted, here is the music.

[Kanig]

1. He instantly played the perfect tone and notes of the ringtone.
2. He immediately went back to the song

wow.

This was the video that introduced me to Jacob Callier. Less than 24 hours later I had watched about 23 hours of him on youtube and purchased concert tickets for Atlanta in 2022.

[HydetheRapper]

1. Man, what beautiful vocoding. I’d love to listen to that all day long.
2. What a fantastic and hilarious way to address an interruption like that.
3. What a class act—he didn’t shame the person (who, to his or her credit, silenced that phone QUICK); he just gently poked a little fun at them, while flashing a warm and friendly grin, and went right back to the song.

[NateTheKang]

He's pretty good, he should write music

[AIYINOFFICIAL]

He has such a nice warm personality that fits the artist that he is . Absolute genius 👍

[HeidiBird]

I'd never heard of him before seeing this 30 second clip, but now I'm a fan. Amazing handle of his instruments!

[Dan-yytt]

It’s kinda wild that we’re straight up witnessing modern musical genius. They will talk about his style and influence for centuries.

[tonycrader]

Taking back the attention immediately in such an easy and lovable way. This should be filed in best practices for live performers.

[isaactheproducer]

I am more impressed that he went straight back to the ongoing tune and key 💚

[jordanmntungwa]

I came here not knowing who this guy is now I want all his music.

[rayres]

I like how he does the little joke and instantly returns to the song avoiding the annoying "audience clapping at everything" feat.

[gspencerg]

This man is not only the most talented person ever but genuinely has a good heart. Much love
