Why this story? The channel's weekly summary: what went up this week, what is drawing views now, and where the channel stands among similar channels.

This grandma is cooler than yours. Kiss (Prince) • Band Cover

Sina's smile is becoming part of the arrangement. Under "This grandma is cooler than yours. Kiss (Prince) • Band Cover," viewers keep pointing to her expressions behind the kit, alongside Connie Brannock's roaming, playful vocal performance.

The session was the biggest new draw among four uploads, reaching roughly 158,000 views. Brannock moves between the musicians as saxophone accents punctuate the vocals; later, guitar and sax take over an extended instrumental groove. It ends with laughter and Sina clapping. The shorter "Grandma showing us how it's DONE... #kiss #drums #rockvocals" gives the collaboration another place on the week's setlist.

Elsewhere, the drum-cover selections brought together Michael Jackson and Paul McCartney's "The Girl Is Mine" and Elvis Presley's version of "Polk Salad Annie." That is quite a range of singers to accompany without leaving the drum stool.

The fresh Prince session also has the strongest daily momentum, narrowly above "Venus (Shocking Blue) • Drum Cover," which has passed a million views. Nils Neumann handled that video's audio and video production, another example of the collaborative approach Sina puts at the center of the channel.

Overall viewing stayed close to its usual daily level, while subscribers were unchanged. The catalog added about 2.6 million views over the week, a substantial total among nearby instrument channels. Rob Scallon had a bigger viewing week; Charles Cornell and Kristina Schiano had smaller ones. For sina-drums, the new full-band session and the recent Shocking Blue cover are supplying the busiest corners of the catalog.

Connie brings the voice, the personality, the energy and the experience. The rest of the band brought a new groove to this Prince classic.
I approve.

Many times we're lucky to get a shy smile from Sina at the end of a video. I've never seen her smile so much as during this one! Fantastic!
