Allison Russell - Full Performance (Live on KEXP)

[@gisela149]

all of them are excellent musicians on their own but Allision lets them shine all together in a spectatcular female group of great musicians. This is not only music this is magic. These ladies have stories to tell and they put their words into powerfull touching music.

[@FelixOlschewski]

Holy cow. This is extraordinary squared. It's hard not to use profanity when the mind is blown. Dear people of earth, there is hope for our species. Thank you all!

[@teresamasek2202]

Yes our chosing family...You all have choose well. Much love to all of you. You give us Hope.

[@AugustLeeStevens-qk6ud]

Was so lucky to catch her and the band at Hardly Strictly and it was such a powerful performance. I had chills, I cried, I yelled...they expel an energy I don't have the words to explain but I'm in a trance every time I watch her perform.

[@louisevad6091]

Most powerful singer songwriter I’ve seen in years

[@ashleybichy7048]

Allison Russel I just saw you perform with Hozier and I hope you get the recognition you deserve as such an incredible artist ❤

[@geepeerces]

Been watching Allison in awe since she first showed up as half of Po' Girl about 20 years ago.

[@teresamasek2202]

I love your Spirit Allison...What a Blessing your music is... Look forward to your continued success. To help so many heal, learn to love again.

[@johnludgate1820]

What an amazingly articulate woman who speaks such truth and that in addition to being a brilliant singer, musician and songwriter.

[@meravushke]

Just... WOW

[@debraw6561]

Allison's music has comforted and moved me so much over the last very challenging 2 years of my life. I was so blessed to get to dance to her live, connect with and even hug her at a show in July. She is a beautiful soul and inspiration

[@marcludgertremblay7681]

Extraordinairement beau. Forte et douce à la fois. Merci Allison.

[@auershox6435]

Saw you all open for Andrew Bird at the Greek Theatre in Berkeley, CA. Was so proud to bring my daughter to this show for her to see such strong performers. I was so blown away by the talent and musicianship.

[@brownstargirl]

Allison and the band's music is so gorgeous! and Gabe, you rock as an interviewer!

[@OldogNuTricks]

The instrumental at minute 19+ is absolutely mesmerizing. Especially the call and response between the clarinet and cello.

[@dawnmoore3270]

Holy Smokes! I can’t feel my face! Wow. Unreal. Fantastic. Bravo!

[@jackiedorner1645]

Allison stands above the crowd. One of only a few artist singing about life's pain and suffering, refreshing

[@robertmcmanus9185]

I came to Allison's music recently, via the CBC. So glad to hear this amazing live performance. This woman surrounds herself with the exact talent that her music demands. Clearly... she knows what she's doing not just when she's writing, but the way she has her songs are laid out... note by note. I get the feeling that she's like Bruce Springsteen. She hears it all in her head and her wonderful friends make it come alive. Another ...WOW

[@williafitch4860]

Love

[@MsUUUUUUUUUU]

You know the pain, you know love, you know gratitude. I wish you the best Allison. I hope the infinite nothingness will desolve your personhood so you can remain in the purest form and go on receiving the power of love without pain.

[@JohnDuffett-kg9bc]

Fantastic, I have felt every song to my soul. Thank you all so much. Loved every minute.

[@kathyhayes4907]

A voice and message that needs to be heard from every stage.

[@leafnlore2712]

Allison, you bring me joy. Thank you. Your band is so amazing. Powerful, talented and incredibly mesmerizing. A true pleasure to experience.

[@gr8blu]

just discovered Allison through the Tennessee Snub - she's my new favorite because her talents are deep and her spirit soars! listen to her talk about her life after the performance. She makes me believe. It's possible! and I'm a 70 year old white guy ~

[@Booklook111]

That Tennessee Snub won’t work. I had to check out this artist for myself. They can’t take this woman’s beauty, strength, and talent. She is a brilliant star.

[@gr8blu]

@@Booklook111 :: suppose we should be thanking the state of Tennessee for bringing MS Russell to our attention!! She's a goddess!

[@kathleenhannan]

Oh my! This band is incredible, and a fitting collaboration for the brilliance that is Allison Russell. What a gift to get to hear and see these talented women play these amazing songs of truth and liberation.. Thank you KEXP, thank you Outside Child band!

[@dlj230558]

Only recently discovered you through your song Stay Right Here. So glad to have found you and this concert. Amazing performance and music. Count me as a fan!

[@laurahanson1735]

My very favorite Allison Russell song! I can truly feel the energy & power in this recording of her words & emotions ❤

[@markbailey418]

Such depth in your music Awesome band . Big fan

[@PaulaBoggsBand]

Been a fan awhile…so happy Allison came to KEXP/Seattle…a gift of sound and humanity.

[@mrkjsmt]

Such an incredible power! May your voices be heard by many. Thanks.

[@unchartedpassions]

Saw her last night opening for Hozier and just wow!!! Such a privilege to experience Hy-Brasil live with such a tight band! She gained an instant new listener! 💜

[@flyingcheff]

Every second of this performance is sublime exquisite juicyness! Every one of these women are pillars of creativity and talent. So good to see Beth Goodfellow- as always in the pocket, so to speak. Such solid groove! 👌

[@Sarah-hm2pe]

Beautiful, and important beyond words. "We decide now to do better." So true, so hopeful. Thank you for all of your many gifts that you share with the world, Allison Russell! 🌻🌼🩵

[@jessical.6434]

I feel shivers everytime I hear these beautiful words that are so real!! You all sing with all of this amazing strength and vaunerability and you sing stories that need to be told for individuals to relate, hear and for change to happen for the best of all people- no matter what keep believing that your dreams will keep taking place ! You're too special for it not to.

[@alfemurphelps7224]

The hit song " Demons" is out now and this interview says a lot! They don't like how sunshine tastes!! I am to "Skuttle" into 2024 on your lead

[@susgwin7987]

The collective talent here is incredible! These women make magic💖

[@davidpunzalan6408]

I didn't realize this was recorded last month, but happy to have just stumbled upon/seen it now! Allison is amazing as always, and the band is fantastic. The music and many of the topics discussed in the interview at the end truly resonate with me. I'm so grateful to the musicians and KEXP for sharing!

[@LeeJacksonWrites]

Absolutely amazing. First time hearing the artist. Completely blown away.

[@Sunbeach24]

We love Guitarist Mandy and we are so grateful she introduced us to all of these lovely women musicians! Their music is so powerful! Sending love from Orcas Island! Also, love to KEXP for creating these wonderful shows for us to enjoy at home!

[@kurtgraber32]

Love at first hear.

[@juancarlosvillalta9117]

Pure 100% soul, life and heart

[@bobo9537]

Lovely and so deep the stories

[@Music4allofU]

Amazing Allison Russell. CMT just premiered "You're Not Alone" With Brandi Carlile. Probably the most moving music video I have ever seen.

[@adamb.4585]

The drummer is rad! I have seen here play with others as well and she always brings amazing texture and drive.

[@DylanC-C]

Agreed! I thought she looked familiar, but does she play with Iron and Wine as well?

[@TheDavidGoldmanphoto]

Can simply not get enough of this art.

[@urito18]

This is so powerful! Incredible performance all of 'em!

[@jeffreybarkin3177]

SHOCK is my Initial Reaction as I am NOT AWARE of ALLISON RUSSELL's story and Trauma that She's Writing and Performing About... QUITE An AWAKENING & INTRODUCTION! Your DARK Message Songs, though from a WORLD and Experiences that are VERY DIFFICULT For Me to Identify With, as I have had a Very Sheltered Childhood comparatively... HOWEVER, I TRULY ADMIRE Your COURAGE And PERSONAL DEVOTION To Encouraging Change and RECOVERY from the Abuses you've Tolerated and ENDURED. Thank You and Looking Forward to Learning MORE. Continued Success and Awareness for your Talent and For HELPING Others sharing in SUCH BROKEN Family Life, TOO! ❤

[@biharcourt]

She's amazing

[@ferrantarrats6759]

Spectacular sound!!💯voice❤❤❤💥💫💥🍀💐

[@lauragoblin]

I love her, she's among the greatest musicians of our time!

[@sturdyvw]

Quite a stretch

[@gordoloboalbondigas]

Seriously profound music-making---this is the absolute opposite of all the stuff that all sounds alike to me in the pop world. This is connection at a transcendental level with the condition of our world and all of humanity. It is nothing short of genius.

[@frankgemein5754]

Wonderful. Inspiring, uplifting and grounding at the same time. I didn't know that this is even possible. This is art at it's best.

[@Sc0tther]

Amazing performances, what an incredible band

Her music is great. Allison Russell is also a powerful performer. I see and hear Allison carrying the flag raised by Nina Simone.

@@AllisonRussell thanks a lot

[@simplelife4019]

She has something that makes me think of Ertha Kitt...

[@AllisonRussell]

This just made my whole decade. I wore the leopard print in honour of Eartha and to try and channel some of her trailblazing spirit. She needs a massive biopic asap!!!

[@simplelife4019]

[@hayleylongster4698]

The music is great. Shame about the lecture.

[@Belphegoresque]

Yes, KEXP seems to be more and more woke each day, we've never seen so much black music on the station, probably "white guilt" kicking in? Too much focus on skin colour which is indeed very ironic.
