Teen Walks Onstage for Talent Show. But No One Was Expecting the Unique Performance That Follows.

Lake Howell High School’s talent show in 2011, the crowd was introduced to the musical magic of the drum. What they thought was one kid ready to rock, was actually five. And what’s better than five drumming boys lined up to blaze the stage? Well, that would be five drumming boys dressed in kilts.

Dubbed “The Hot Scots” (clever right?), friends Jordan, Nigel, Dylan, Matt, and Elias beatboxed onto the stage with drumsticks in their hands. Then they got all serious. With a click-clack, their drumline officially jumped off to immediate cheers.

No background music, singers, or other instruments accompanied their set. These kids drove the audience wild with their sound, footwork, and all-around synced up swagger. Go band kids! In addition to the solos, ducking, and fierce facial expressions, we’re also treated to a giant Rickroll smackdab in the middle of their routine. Because who would expect that? Watch the entire video and see if you can help yourself from getting caught up in the beat.

What’s even more amazing is that years later this group has passed the baton on to a new lineup of Hot Scots who keep the tradition going at the high school. And these five have all remained friends! One of them even went on to perform on Jimmy Kimmel Live with a major performer. How cool!
