Red Hot Chilli Peppers - Can't Stop 🌶 Dr Funk Slap Bass Cover (Busking Sessions 📍 Newquay)

Dr Funk is back with a slap bass Red Hot Chilli Pepper’s cover of Can’t Stop.
In a busking session in coastal town Newquay, Dr Funk covered one of RHCP’s biggest smash hits.

Multi-instrumentalist, live-looper, jazz funk bassist Dr Funk brings busking into the 2020s. He makes the four-string sing. He surfs. His dream is to own a 67 Mustang Fastback. He’s not actually a doctor.

🎥 Welcome to the official YouTube Channel of Dr Funk 🎵

Dr Funk lives to play the bass. That’s really all you need to know. Slapping, popping, strumming, riffing, he elevates the humble rhythm instrument to levels of melody and showmanship that are more commonly associated with the lead guitar. Inspired by legendary bassists – Marcus miller, Victor Wooten, Louis Johnson – Funk is the type of player who could jam on a groove for hours, building it up with his loop machine and keys. Fellow musicians stop and play with him. Crowds gather. Intrigued ears fished by Funk’s playing, pausing and taking time out to enjoy a stranger’s soundtrack.

It’s one of the most honest, unfiltered forms of performance you can imagine, and it’s one that the good doctor has known since he was 15. Since moving from Sunderland to Cornwall in search of surf, gigs and good times with his band of schoolmates – south west festival favourites The Big Sets – it’s the only job he’s ever had. Over the years he’s taken his unique style across Europe and, most recently, he’s taken his work across the world as one of the most popular viral street performers online.

Flea would undoubtedly be very impressed with this guy. This dude could go toe-to-toe with any bassist alive.

[adraedin]

I really like how he bobs his head while he's jamming out and takes the time to shoot people smiles and look around. He looks like he's having so much fun doing what he loves.
Keep funkin' on, my man!

[johannajournou]

I'm 30 and I've just started to learn bass 2 days ago and this video makes me never want to stop, NEVER EVER. Love from France.

[lllllllllllllllll]

Every now and then you come across someone who is so incredibly talented it blows ya mind.
This man is actually too good to be in a band.
Simply amazing musician.
Glad he's just loving what he does.

[garybishop]

When your bass player says "I'll take the solo" - Totally amazing playing!!!

[ChrisHarvey-cu]

The fact that he loves what he does and you can tell cause he smiles alot and he's feeling it is amazing

[GingerKC]

How can anyone freakin walk I swear I'd kneel to worship him, 🙏. I bow to you oh mighty bassist. I'm blown away!!! I grew up with my best guy friend who was a Flea freak and Tony Levine. He was exceptional himself. I am a music snob. Give me some funk. But my taste is all over, from grunge to blue grass. This guy should be in a stadium!! Not a street. I'd pay! I wish I had a band, and I could have a bassist like him. Fantastic!!

[BeyondRainbow]

I wish I was there to clap for your performance!

[MrBluejacketred]

Absolutely the nastiest re-interpretation of the song. I love it.

[moonbubbles]

Amazing musicianship. Amazing smile.

[thomac]

What's it like knowing the people that just pass you by have know clue what they are missing? I can't begin to imagine the difference in emotion from sadness and compassion to just outright laughter and completely enjoying the beat of the moment... thank you for what you do brother!!!!

It takes some real brass to even thank about trying to play that. Bravo .... even the master would be proud of you. Bravo
