I'm back after a 5 year break. When its time its time!

I must be into tree figures for listening to this now!

Yeah there playing in Madison WI next weekend for free but they have so many albums now hopefully there just as good as the first two!

Same I’ve been watching since I saw them at a residency where they played for a week in my town! That was 2014ish. I watch this performance multiple times a year since then haha

Yeah man love it think I stumbled across this when there was like a few thousand views

Same, have loved coming back to this video over the years!

Completely agree

Same dude. 10 year anniversary just around the bend

Learned of this band from KPCC radio station, sure like them...

glad to know the resonate hipster is here to chime in

​@@skateboards5298 He resonated with me as well!

@Tay - Yes. The audio is great on this video. One of the nice things about the acoustics of the great outdoors, there are no strong reflections from walls and ceilings, and low-frequency resonances are minimized.

8 years later and i'm back here again.

He ?? That's Alynda's GF.

Nautilus1972 i wouldn't be so quick to make that correction... yosi is openly transgender and i have not read anywhere that states how yosi identifies... i have not had the privilege to meet these fines people, so i don't know myself.... no matter; they jam :-)

Elyse Peters +Nautilus1972 Semantics over pronouns is the most frustrating aspect of the LGBTQ movement.

Raymond Lee I understand it can be difficult for others to understand all the complexities and proper etiquette regarding LGBTQ individuals... However, it is important to do our best to respect and ease the immense struggle that comes from being born into a body that that does feel like your own and a world that (mostly) does not understand you. Sensitivity and an eagerness to be respectful truly goes a long way, even if we don't always says the right thing. Gender pronouns may seem like semantics to you but try to consider how huge of an issue it may be to a trans person. Would you like it if people referred to you as "her" (assuming you identify as a "him")? Would you not correct them? I would imagine that any discomfort that mistake might cause you would be greatly magnified for a trans individual. If it's such a little deal to you (and a potentially big deal to them) then how easy it would be to ease that struggle/pain, if only just a bit! Seems well worth it to me. Just some food for thought... Also, Yosi is indeed wonderful! As is the entire band... I'm so in love, can't wait to see them live! :D

+Beverly Jordan Idk, the fiddle is good but it could be a lot flasheir at parts (on solos). I agree it's perfect when it's accompanying the vocals, but when the fiddle is soloing, I want a little more than just the melody...

Add me to that!

right!! lol.. same here

Exactly.

Agreed.

that's awesome I hope to see them some time. Nearest place I could see them is maybe Spokane or the Gorge amphitheater. if they ever play it.

Absolutely bang on ..

Arturo Lopez So cool to be sharing musical traditions with students who may not have ever even heard them!

You’re telling me. It’s like having your breath taken away. Goddamn.

This is definitely the best this band ever sounded. It's not that their new stuff is bad, but this hits me so much more.

Yep, i didn't even knew that this band iterated so much but .. feels like the best they ever were.

Why Amazon? Clearly you need to listen more closely to the anti-capitalist, pro-people lyrics of their new music

don't. just don't. Keep Eddie Vedder away from her please.

I didn't listen something like that since I heard Ella Fitzgerald by first time.

well said.

batca ioana .

Heard on the radio tonight - good mob - npr tiny desk with the dvlopd band very strong starting with [Rakin Beach]

Thank you Stephen Colbert for highlighting this band

They're musicians. They don't wear these clothes for stage, it's who they are. Artists man!

Maybe too big … I get the sense that they're kinda getting walked all over on by certain very powerful corporate interests and are probably making decisions that they will regret in the long run. I say this with the lead-in to a video entitled "Hurray For The Riff Raff at American Songbook" in mind. You know "Sponsored by Prudential Investment Management" which is a *mega* corporation having exactly one single purpose which, since it is a publicly traded company, is the only allowed purpose they can have: "To fully maximize profit with not *one single hint* of reflection or regards to any possible collateral damage obtaining that goal may engender, whether foreseeable or not". Another "unknown" is a singer-songwriter named "Sharon Van Etten" (actually she can't sing to save her life but she does a good job at the songwriting part). For some reason or other, whenever I run into anything to do with her it's always "Sponsored by American Express" or something (maybe a different mega corp.). Now either daddy's a real Big Shot over at A.E. or else A.E.'s bankrolling her (with interest naturally) while she pursues a (very unlikely) career as a singer-songwriter. But if the backing had been from a company that actually *knew a thing or two about the music business*, unlike A.E., then she'd probably have a fighting chance. But as it is I see her in *major debt* before long and then it's waitressing near 24/7 to pay it back (unless she gets hit up with some *major* luck). An example of a band that's not being pushed around and seem very clever and well organized is an ensemble called "GoGo Penguin". A superb group to begin with, I researched their backing and label and so on. Eventually when I posted one of their videos (on another channel) I knew exactly what to put down for the copyright. And it was THEIR label that came up as owner and *not* (as in the case of HFTRR) some vague statement about the music being "administered" by various unknown "rights and interest groups". In fact, when I posted that song of HFTRR's, again on that same channel, I searched and searched and could not find out who owned the copyright! So instead I just put *"©Hurray For The Riff Raff - 2014"* which I knew was wrong, but for the life of me I could not find out who owns the copyright for their works! - A

What's the name of the song playing at 8 min?
