Crumb’s bass player is one of the most passionate musicians I’ve seen. He’s always so consumed by whatever he’s playing

The bass player and basslines are amazing

that rhythm section deserves a raise

Bass players are always another level of having fun

Can’t believe more people aren’t talking about this drummer! The rhythm is incredibly tight, complex when it needs to be, and all the fills are perfect!

YEEEEEEEEESSSSSS, FINALLY, I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS FOR YEARS. Crumb is an incredible band with a truly unique sound, so glad you could have them.

Music Track Time-out List: Balloon: 0:40 Part III: 3:49 BNR: 8:00 Retreat: 11:40 Interview Portion: 14:05

4 years ago, I hung out with a friend and he had a Crumb T shirt . I didn’t bother to listen . I play the Tame Impala station on Pandora , and Crumb plays sometimes. 6 months ago I got into it, I can’t believe I’ve never tripped to Crumb . Very mystical strange and spacey. Luv it .

The first thing that strikes me immediately is, again, the absolutely marvellous sound engineering and mixing skills of the studio engineers at KEXP. This is just album-quality production, as usual. Excellent camera work too. The band sounds very, very interesting as well. The songs sound very distilled, to-the-point, sweet, full of character. I am glad I just found them out. Super easy thumbs up!

It’s like this band was made to play in this studio. They sound amazing.

I'm approaching 60 years of age here, and love to hear new, original bands / music. This is such a breath of fresh air.

This drummer really draws upon all styles... one minute he's channelling latin beats, the next hip hop, the next jazz, and so on.

Discovered this while on acid and god damn, what a trip!

This band is extremely underrated.

try and count the number of influences that are coming together in order to make a band like Crumb possible... it's going to be a huge list... what an incredible time to be alive for new music; such a massive and beautiful convergence of styles, genres, moods, and technology... god bless KEXP for continually shining a bright spotlight at this magic

The ecstasy of finding a new favorite band... this is such a bright spot in the midst of a nightmare of a year I'm having

who else thinks Lila is gorgeoussss😍

My favorite psychedelic band, I wanted to find them here so badly. My day has been saved. ❤️

Thanks for having Crumb! Up next: Men I Trust please!

I remember the first time I heard this band, I was picked up by an Uber and it was a nice summer day here in Portland, windows down, smell of flowers in the air, just a perfect moment, and Locket was playing and I was obsessed with what I was hearing. Googled the lyrics and the rest was history. This is such an amazing band, the aura their sound gives off is insane, its like the most perfect sunny day ever, completely freeing and mystical

Can we talk about how amazing this version of Retreat is? It ends so early on the album but this goes into that amazing solo with the coolest tone on that guitar, goddamn I love it

bass player this, drums that....... the whole band forms together so beautifully, that's the coolest shit.

WOW. Every musician in the band shines separately and together. What a gorgeous mix as well. There wasn’t a single dull moment. Surprises around every corner and so many rich layers. I’m on my way to go dig into their back catalogue.

i cant believe how perfect they made it sound live, gotta appreciate the mixers wow

listening to their studio albums, I figured a lot of the keyboards would be loops or playbacks for a live show, but I'm pleasantly impressed to see them all played by one extremely talented individual (not even two players just one)!

Omg I'm so happy to see these guys talk. Such a mystery band. These guys made me stay strong during the pandy. Love Crumb, love KEXP. MUCH LUV BRUVS

Lila is right on describing crumb. It's like a parts of you just melting off. God bless crumb for giving me daily auditory massages

seriously can’t remember the last time a band had so many bangers one after another. lila’s guitars, singing and lyrics and just exactly what i want to hear. keyboard is amazing, drummer doesn’t over drum and then bass player is just simply fantastic. i’ll put them against zeppelin or floyd. to me the last 3ish albums are right up there with the classic floyd 4

seeing them live was the best day of my life

That drum groove at 2:36 is out of this world. Their drummer is sick

I’ve waited 5 years for this

Crumb's music was a large part of the soundtrack of my life back in 2018-2020 when I opened an art gallery with my friends. I'll forever love them for it.

Crumb’s drummer has the tightest groove in the Western Hemisphere

The second half of Part III is perfection.

Part III is just amazing, even better live

I was really floored when I first heard "locket", which is possibly the perfect pop song. This performance is really great too. Glad they're still making new music!

KEXP is killing me financially by showcasing these bands that I have to buy all of their music.

Crumb works so hard to maintain their best sound playing live it's phenomenal

I'm old and I love their music ❤

I was so lucky to see Crumb live on my birthday. So memorable, one of my favorite bands out there

lo que más me gusta de esta banda es como en vivo, las versiones de álbum son meramente una referencia; una vaga memoria a la que aluden pero jamás reproducen; juegan con las canciones, las transforman, las destrozan, las usan para darte algo familiar a lo cual aferrarte mientras cierras los ojos y te dejas elevar y te pierdes en el caos, la psicodelia, la voz de Lila, los efectos y por unos ~30 minutos te olvidas del mundo y simplemente disfrutas el momento. Amo Crumb. Gracias KEXP.

Beautiful, unique and underrated band. Hope those guys can make more noise and be famous in the same level of the quality of those songs.

Man, I've been waiting to see those drumsets live, finally! So much respect for this guy, love this shit.

Great band, very tight. Clean sound. I wish the vocals were a bit more present. But I always appreciate KEXP introducing me to new music. I LOVE IT!!! I will follow CRUMB. Thank you.

I LOVEEEE CRUMB! They deserve this recognition I can’t wait to see how they progress as a band

Finally! I've loved Crumb for years, but the one thing they're lacking in is good live recordings. Hype! Thanks KEXP

Part III is an incredible tune.

this has become one of my top five favourite sets I've seen on kexp. this is up there with Bombay and fleet foxes. amazing, amazing set.

It’s extremely rare to hear a band where not one single word can be gleaned but somehow, Crumb achieved it!

this is going to sound just as crisp 100 years from now

I can't imagine I missed those guys in Porto for Primavera. Oh my god what a tremendous loss. Please come back to Portugal again solo. Geez you are so incredible. I'm addicted to your sound, melody, lyrics, tune. This band is a full pack of EXCELENCY.

Discovered these far too late and now they are amongst my favourites.

I don't know how but KEXP sound team always does an excellent work, this is one of the main reasons I'm suscribed to this channel.

Bri Aronow have an amazing set! Rhodes, two minilogues, a reface.... thanks for that!

Ahuevo, que chingon Los vi cusndo vienieron a México en el Hipnosis y estuvo bien perron 👽 Vengan de nuevooooo a México!!!! 🇲🇽 🇲🇽

KEXP has some legendary sound engineers, mad props. I can only imagine what some 90s drum n' bass would have sounded in this studio, maybe a little Adam F? Great sound by Crumb, they are def on my radar now.

Drummer steady as rock, great band!

Yes... Crumb is one of my favorite bands, I'm glad they made it to the KEXP studio...

Que bueno escuchar a crumb en kexp ,esta banda tiene el potencial para brillar 👌🏻

Crumb live at Desert Daze 2019 on a few tabs was one of the best shows I've ever been to. Hell yeah! Crumb fuckin rules.

The bass player is amazing. One of my favorites from current bands

By far the best band to come around lately. I can’t get enough of their music. Just bought a few vinyl albums. Crumb is the type of band where Every. Single. Song. is a banger. Beautiful, beautiful stuff. Now come to Colorado so I can see you live!

finally Crumb on KEXP!! I'm in love with this band. for me they have a special sensitivity for creating and expressing a sound that really reflects our time right now

she is so good live actually all of them are i am impressed by this

I love Crumb, have been listening to them since like 2-3 years and that show is amazing! I love the new stuff

I love KEXP and have seen tons of my favorite bands on it. This was by far the best one I've seen. That bass part at the end of the first song. It was like watching Radiohead do a session.

Such a dynamic vocalist - I love the way she utilizes the sampler

I feel like the things these four have produced are absolutely fantastic, and I truly hope they continue to keep making their art.

essa banda é sensacional! ao vivo mais ainda! parabéns a banda, aos engenheiros de som e também a toda equipe da Kexp. Um puta registro!!!

it is a crime that there aren't more live sets from CRUMB. I hope they get a tiny desk soon!

The rhythm section absolutely kills it. 🔥

The one and only Crumb interview that exists

Want to give this performance 7,000 more thumbs-up. Such insanely talented live performers!

I've been waiting to see Crumb in KEXP. Sounding pretty dope as usual. They even did a little retouch on their tunes. Energy is typically electric! Hoping to see more studio appearance and live performance from Crumb.

Jonathan on drums is so amazing and versatile. Lila is my kryptonite

My all-time favorite band 🤙

The bass player rules!!!

Love Crumb! Always happy to see them live!

I notice this KEXP comes up a lot when I look up bands I like, their ability to capture live performance is amazing.

I just can't stop listening to this wonderful band. The sound, the environment created, the instruments and Lila's voice... Ah Lila, your voice sounds like an angel whispering rose petals in the wind... breeze in the air...🥰🙂🥲

it’s my dream to play live here with my band one day.

It's cool seeing them talk live. I've never seen any interview with the members anywhere but here.

Enchanting. What a wonderful band.

This drummer is so tight! And wow, vocals sound exactly like the recording!

Great session, Crumb is incredible. Evie did a great job too.

Such a great performance, and the sound quality for the studio is amazing as always. She’s like extremely dreamy as well

every song makes me cry. always. such a powerful and passionate sound 💘

their music is literally heaven, they deserve so much more love and recognition 💙

LETS GO! Been waiting years to see Crumb on here. Love finally being able to see an interview with them like this!

This is my first time listening to them and love it! Amazing performance!

saw them live in Argentina, no words to explain what they genereted in the crowd, we were all hypnotized. All the musicians from this band are absolute gems, they are unique and true. I danced, sang, cried and jumped singing "locket" never thought that was gonna happend. Hope to see Crumb again

Their music is impeccable and the lyrics are relatable always!!

Saludos desde México, que chido que siga habiendo música así.

Amo ❤️🥺

Just discovered this Band! OMG!! Love em! 🎶

Parabéns a todos !!! Sensacional a musicalidade !!!

Incredible set! Glad to see them on KEXP!

Just have to say, I will not stop watching this performance. I fucking love you guys. And of course the good folks over at KEXP and Sweet relief doing this for a great cause. What more could one want?

Part III on repeat, what a dreamy track.

woah, can't stop listening to these songs
