The native shakes his head sadly and says. "Yes. Very very bad. Now starts bass solo."

Gotta love that Vulfpeck release a ton of content for free on KZread. There's much more of this goodness just waiting.

I met with Cory Wong a while back when he was performing in Amsterdam. We chatted for so long we had to leave via the artist exit because the rest of the building was empty. What an incredibly nice guy!

it wasn't until after the 10th time watching this vid that i realized they weren't chanting "Go, Go, Go", but "Joe, Joe, Joe". Fucking legendary.

Is this his own thing or is he deliberately riffing off Fame/Toe Jam & Earl?? Sounds amazing either way. Incredible moment

I just wanted to say thank you, because this video introduced me to Vulfpeck. They're now my favorite band of all time. For anyone who doesn't know them, please give them a listen!

Insane bass chops. Big credit to his band for locking in with him though. It's funny the part that got the biggest reaction from the audience was one of the most simple parts, relatively.

Joe Dart is the Joe Dart of bassists

Just saw Vulfpeck live this weekend and they beat every other show in the weekend, Odesza, Kendrick Lamar, Paramore, none of them could beat Joe as the absolute dynamo of funk. They officiated a Jewish wedding mid-show, Cory Wong played with them the whole time, and the hour set felt like 10 minutes. Vulfpeck is unbeatable
