anybody who see's this video needs to see andrew byrd live...just came from a festival in which i saw him 3 times...unbelievably good and different

That is different. That violin 🎻 blew me away. This was really very good. Thanks for the introduction, Harri and Music. Fantastic!

Andy's a genius. His last name is spelled "Bird" though. I learned of him through John Diliberto's excellent New Age music show, called "Echoes" based on the Pink Floyd masterpiece. Bird is a bird. Play more Birds!

Andrew is such a gem! You should definitely check more of him, if you haven't already :) I'm glad you enjoyed it! Much love from Portugal

If you like this you should check out Andrew Birds live recording of Plasticities from The Basement. I’m a violinist, and that live recording blows my mind

Refresionly different ❤ Love this ❤❤ Thank you Harri and Music

He's incredible, I absolutely love him. If you want to hear more from him check out Roma Fade! Also yeah, that's a straight up violin. Idk how he's miked it or whether he's put any electric pickups on it, but yeah that fingerpicking technique is also used in classical music sometimes, it's called pizzicato. Great reaction! :)

Just amazing!! Thanks to “Music” for requesting this. 🌺✌️

He is my favorite musician

Really appreciate your thoughts on this amazing song (which I'm just discovering myself). Great vid! Interested in checking out your others!

Finally in the second half of the song I figured out who the vocalist reminded me of - the voice reminds me of the lead singer of Semisonic who had the hit Closing Time - if you haven't reacted to that please consider it

Not familiar with it but it's very nice. Thank you Music and Harri.

Some of his best stuff sounds a bit like Django Reinhardt early 2 albums from 1998 and 1999 listen to “Thrills” and “Oh! The Grandeur”, you cannot be disappointed.

Love your channel - exposes me to artist I normally never would have listened to. This song was great and the band was amazing

Didn't Tiny Tim play a violin? Like the words, almost funny in a very clever way..

I agree he's trained to do something that isn't ordinarily done but the technique isn't that unusual nor rare... HOWEVER, Mairead Nesbitt is THE BEST performing violinist in a generation. Winning the All-Ireland Fiddle Championship at an early age The Fiddle Fairy has never looked back. Performing with symphonies around the world but most known as a founding member of Celtic Woman... So how about a reaction to a live violin performance where a barefoot, classically trained violinist goes ham on her 320 year old violin and turns a butterfly into a dragonfly...
