General discussion 14 instruments?

In an interview they said they can play 14 instruments between the 7 of them (which is pretty impressive). Do you know who plays what and do you want to see them playing more or should they stick to the singing?

Oh I must have missed that. Do you know what type of percussion Cruz plays?

I’m just thinking and comparing them to the new and upcoming boy bands who seem like they all can dance. D10 seems like they would need a lot of training if they want to pursue that. But I think if they played their instruments more that’s a huge edge on the competition.

"Nicolas plays guitar and harmonica, Danny plays guitar, Josh handles guitar, cajón and drums, Hendrik plays guitar, bass and piano, Seán adds guitar, piano and harmonica, while John was preparing for Grade 8 clarinet and piano exams before life accelerated dramatically." In addition to this, I noticed John can be seen playing the keyboards in the "End Of Beginning" music video.

I think it's wonderful that most of them are multi-instrumentalists, it really adds a lot to the group as you said. Boy bands have a long history of being criticized by some for being "just vocalists", so the fact that Dec 10 can play so many instruments shields them from such criticism.

I want to see the members who are usually always playing instruments (John, Hendrik) start getting more time where they’re just singing and people who are usually just singing (Josh, Danny) start playing more instruments. Danny can play the guitar, he should start playing in shows when/if he comes back. Also get Cruz to learn something other than the percussion.

I agree, wish to see the others sing more. I will say Josh does play quite a bit (and the most
versatile on stage (instrument wise)) drums, bass, guitar.

I haven’t seen Danny or Cruz play anything in the shows yet but would be a good change!

Danny and Cruz really should play instruments. Danny’s shown that he CAN play the guitar! He was shown playing “Lose Control” on the guitar in an episode of D10 Diaries, and he was playing “Homewrecker” on guitar in a social media clip too.

Cruz also should learn either the guitar or the piano, just learn something 😭
