Avi Kaplan - Aberdeen (Live) - April 5, 2019

[@Lookinforrealmusic]

Ive said this for years to anyone who would listen to me. Avi Kaplan is a poet.

[@legikgeo]

My gosh. This live performance is even better than studio version. Especially with this background story...

[@jhowe67]

There is a place that I used to go Given it's name by the Buffalo Filled me up and eased my pain Washed my soul without the rain Oh Aberdeen you've been calling to me Calling me to make my way back home To that cool summer breeze and those old evergreens the only place to rest my weary bones Soon I will go and free my heart To that sage and stone beneath the stars Clear my mind and float my soul To lay down all my sorrow Oh Aberdeen you've been calling to me Calling me to make my way back home To that cool summer breeze and those old evergreens the only place to rest my weary bones *whistle to end*

❤❤❤ we are a few hrs from Bishop, we go camping up there in the fall...beautiful

[@dedegardella7135]

I too live a few hours from there, I knew exactly where he is talking about. I didn't realize Avi was from there till this song.

[@suewright1299]

So very beautiful Avi, really amazing!

[@jeancaldwell5391]

Thanks Macey! This is such a beautiful song. If this is another example of the songs he’s writing now, I can’t wait for his next album.

[@joyces893]

Love to hear you sing and now love to hear you whistling. Love the song. Cant say it enough love Avi's music talented beyond belief.

[@maximilian925]

How does he vibrato in his whistling

[@dillankhan2002]

I've learned how to do it relatively well but I have no idea how he got that quick of a vibrato on a whistle

[@CarolHoudini]

I don't know man, he is magic or a god probably.

[@michaeljoseph7160]

@@dillankhan2002 is there a video on youtube on how to do this? I'm in AW!

[@helenat2446]

Is it to do with how he whistles with lips open? I have no idea. All I know is that the sounds from his mouth - talking, singing, humming, whistling, anything - are like honey from heaven. ❤️

[@bjcarbo808]

Love it!

So... I am blown away by the song, obviously... But the whistling through his teeth thing is kinda blowing my mind a little bit

[@michaeljoseph7160]

How does one learn to whistle like that????

[@stvncovers.8077]

hey i live there lol

[@cocozhang6695]

Ok he must have eaten a CD or something, cuz this sounds EXACTLY like the recording. How's that even possible?

[@TheCriticom]

Because he doesn't need to enhance his recordings or use auto-tune like bands used to once upon a time.
