Are you new to drums? A totally different musical experience, but, you should check out Greg Saunier from Deerhoof. The dude makes a 3 piece kit sound like the invasion of Normandy.

This was when Brian was sick/threw his voice out for a little bit. I felt so bad for him, because you could tell he was giving it his all. Still, so much love for these dudes forever.

And on top of that. This music isn't easy to sing. I pride myself on having a good range, and I find my voice cracking while trying to cover these songs. Even more credit to Brian being able to preform while sick and still sound great.

Every single one of them killed it.

2014? don't hold back on these gems

This band makes such incredibly effective simple songs that uses very simple composition techniques in complicated ways that doesn't make the music sound like its a complex as it is, but devilishly simple

When Matt throws down the tambourine...

I've been a massive TFB fan for about four years and tend to love AudioTree performances more than studio recordings, and have somehow never seen this performance?? It's beautiful. Santa Monica has never been among my favorite TFB songs, but this version is absolutely wonderful

3 years after this recording and these guys are still my fav!!

i come back to this video every month and its still so good every time

I watch this like once a week. Still one of my fave TFB sessions on youtube to watch

Every single member just plays/sings spectacularly. They all have these huge auras and they're just melting together into these magnificent songs

I'm so glad that I found this video (and that it was posted). I've fallen even more in love with this band because of this video..and I didn't think that was possible. They are so raw, so natural, so full of intent when they perform their music. They've made this their life and their passion and it really shows. I'm so glad that The Front Bottoms exists, their music has got me through so much. TFB for life.

Gah, this performance makes me smile uncontrollably and get a little teary eyed at the same time. I absolutely love it.

I think I've been a fan now for over eight years and I can't imagine my life without this amazing music. just saw you guys on 10/5/21 at the warfield, fucking amazing. much fucking love

Is there any instrument the keyboardist cant play?! So talented!

I love this band. I can’t wait to see them live sometime soon.

The lead singer has a voice that reminds me of some of the lead vocalists from the UK and Ireland from back in the 80s. Sounds good.

This video brings me eternal happiness honestly 🤷‍♀️

The editing & cutting is done very well.

I love how Brian uses an acoustic guitar and the rest of it it mixed is really good.

You know what I thinks really sad? I know how really sad you are..those lyrics get me

You’re talking with your friends, their sitting on your bed, all you want is sleep, and all you’ll get is heaa- 👀

god damn it i love this band

The editing on this is 10/10 🏆

I feel like I must have watched 100 different Audiotree Live sessions with lots of great bands at this point but I keep coming back to this one most often. Such amazing energy and honestly I think I prefer sick Brian vocals over the studio versions. The interviewer is more annoying than average imo, but the performance is incredible!

loved the drums

lol his throat is sore so he has to sing from his lungs instead from his high throat/nasal/head like he always does.

feels like 50 years of shit have taken place since I first saw this

so much energy in every one of their songs
