Austin City Limits Web Exclusive: Dawes "Most People"

[@profwilliams2772]

This is on my youtube rotation. I NEED to hear it every few days. And usually, I play it a few times. The end jam gets me every time.

[@scottstringham8723]

Heartfelt and ballsy at the same time. The Dawes band rocks, no other way to say it. May they long stay together!

[@wishlight1751]

This band is so good. Like the best I have heard since the Eagles or Tom Petty.

[@melikeclouds]

Their rhythm section is unreal. The jam at the end of this song is on another level. Sooo good.

[@80sRadDad]

I keep coming back for that specifically

[@brianlambourne1752]

Best Band around by a long long way. Inventive and lyrics are wonderful.

[@donniea5058]

I never noticed the lock on the keyboard. Thats a neat trick. I love a band that sounds as good live as they do in the studio.

[@80sRadDad]

They actually sound BETTER LIVE

[@jamesotto5526]

3:31 lays down a weight on the piano key nonchalantly like a boss

[@nicpeel6557]

That was so mint.

[@atpg5]

I believe it's a Yale

[@scohills]

Yah, what's up with that?

[@brianpalay]

@@scohills He's holding that note out for the rest of the song to add some textural heft in that register. It's remarkable how big that 4-piece band sounds. Happy to answer your question form 4 years ago. Hope all is well.

[@zpizaman]

My first time hearing this song and my first impression was I heard Billy Joel influence at work here. Great band and music. Rock is not dead.

[@adamcoe]

hooooo okay i could say a million things about the spectacular quality of this but let's just start with the fact that this is probably my 6th watch and i only just now noticed the enormous, dave grohl size snare drum back there, WOW. hats off

[@theaustindude]

I dig the lock on the key trick

[@JohnnyNowhere]

Ikr? I saw that and horse laughed.

[@andrewcaddell2670]

My goodness are they amazing! Wow! 🤦‍♂️

[@Robfalcon501]

wow, great performance, so good

[@allaboutaddison1997]

Gord Downie is looking down on his children and smiling

[@robertogutierrez2897]

Like January Christmas lights under billion year old stars... Wow...

[@barrywilliamsmb]

Playing the bible! i love it!

[@jammyd33]

so much joy

[@colerainfan1143]

These guys are great.

[@michaelpuja5403]

One dislike? Success! Great band!

[@artattackjack9120]

New favorite band lol

[@robertreno4744]

Man, are these guys great! I've been listening to them for a few months now, such talent, great song-writers, they have such a smooth-grove and sound SOOOOO good live. My wife and I are totally jazzed that we're going to get to see them this summer. I'd love to see this entire episode of ACL, any ideas how? Their site doesn't have it...

[@michaelvineyard3941]

How is it that I have never heard these guys?!?

[@gumbolimbo6326]

when you can play guitar like that, who needs Dicky or Trevor. We need more Taylor and more of his guitar.

[@adamcoe]

that drummer is a big time operator as well. i mean, everyone in this band is

[@jeffb4416]

Gross. I've never seen a more boring, less interesting band performing at any Irish bar farmers market, open market, anywhere. ZZzzzzzzzz.

[@oliverchapman51177]

Really? I never thought of a very well written song as anything but a gift
