3. If the question is whos band then Benny Goodman
in that instance. Gene Krupa at that time was drumming for the band.

Gene Krupa was a great drummer and an excellent band leader.

4. I'm not sure I understand the question as it relates to the video
Since it's a video of Krupa playing in Goodman's band, with Goodman wailing on the clarinet.

And for those who don't recognize the clip, it's from the film "Hollywood Hotel", which introduced "Hooray For Hollywood" - - performed by Goodman's band, all in individual cars, driving to the airport to say good-bye to their buddy, Ronnie Bowers (played by Dick Powell), who thought he was going to Hollywood to become an important movie actor.

A very fun film, directed by Busby Berkley hisse'f:
