Bahamas - Earthtones (Full Live Concert)

[@jbmahalo]

I found your band by watching Michael Palmisano’s guitar lessons. I’m totally in love with your Bahamas band. Sincerity, simplicity and soulfulness! Mahalo 🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽🙏🏽❤️

[@JKFlaker]

Whomever the sound engineer, he or she killed it. Sounds incredible in my headphones.

[@oddlogic1]

1) No kidding. I've listened to their studio stuff. Most of it, I'm just like...this is fine. But this is sublime. It's so....intimate (not a quality lent by sound engineering - but the performance itself) and it sounds amazing. This is one of my top ten things I'll show people if they happen to be in my studio in front of monitors. 2) Tiny Desk concerts are also consistently incredible. I marvel at that, and whomever does the Alabama Shakes albums. They both strike me as art in their own right.

[@sundancvision4026]

I know dude! Sounds so beautiful

[@rukeyser]

YES!!!

[@peteralexandre6593]

i'm a sound engineer myself and i can tell you something (despite that i love Bahamas's music and that the performance is amazing) The sound is incredible, the man killed it for sure !

[@Pancho308]

Mine, too!

[@joela7601]

I've listened to Bahamas for years. They have never sounded this good. I can't stop listening to this. It's been on repeat for 3 days. My wife is slowly losing her mind.

[@jakehalljokes]

I just found them today and recommended songs? "All the time" came up on my pandora and I was hooked.

[@calvinkretz4877]

If you're looking for a great stripped down set and you really get to see Afie's personality and guitar skill. Look up Bahamas Live Set SXSW. It's 10 years old, but still lovely

[@lindadube4493]

J ai découvert votre groupe dans la série télé Lucifer à max télé wooww all the time MERCI❤❤❤❤❤

[@leviarnett4443]

I don't normally comment but this is incredible.. A thousand thanks to Michael Palmisano's guitar lessons for introducing me to this beautiful Canadian band! ✌️

[@downtownhashbrown]

Dude, yes. Yessss. Thank you Michael P. for introducing me. This is bliss.

[@april7643]

Here because of Michael P too. Wonderful music, video, vibe, writing, production. I love Canadians too !

[@torontolarrivee7965]

Bass player has a perfect touch

[@carloalcos]

Everything about this. The performances, the sound engineering, the space, the camera work, the lighting. Crushed it on all levels.

[@jennipoysti976]

the fact that this is a live session is bananas

[@bigeasy13]

Bananas? Or...Bahamas?.......I'll let myself out.

[@realgoodmind]

Never heard of this band before but man this first song just blew me away. Love finding new music like this randomly.

[@warbyothermeans6732]

It hits the spot for me when no other music out today does anymore. I'm with you m8

[@thecomfortisnow]

Glad you found them. Most of their songs feel super chill and refreshing.

[@jonathanmcgrath6144]

It's amazing how So Free repeats the same chords yet sounds fresh the whole time. Incredible harmonies...

[@jonjonfarris5374]

Well, we know that 73 people have hearing problems! How could you dislike this? So damn good!!!

[@museicluvva8529]

who would ever think "do do do do" could sound so good

[@jimmiedaniels2745]

You nailed it do do do doooo

[@andrewkellogg7404]

Such a phenomenal set! Fantastic musicians So Free 0:00 No Expectations 7:43 Way With Words 11:24 Opening Act (The Shooby Dooby Song) 11:52 No Wrong 20:32

[@cbcmusic]

Glad you liked it!

[@emmetdunnemtl]

2nd track backing vocals are genius!

[@andrewalbertson1]

Since I found this around around 10 days ago I've listened to it every day when I wake up, brings me pure joy. Also I been feeling the unstoppable urge to show this to all my guitarist friends, their collective playing and unison is absolutely perfect.

[@nicholkid]

The sound and mix quality for this is elite. One of the best sounding YT performance videos I've ever watched. (Aurora-Haik is another amazing one btw)

[@jonasschnackkrog]

This WILL and should be the soundtrack for my funeral. OMG, this sound engineer is crazy, this is so good!

[@davidprivott5666]

Another guy with his own funeral playlist. You're my people.

[@dhirkala]

I rewatch on a regular basis. I love this so much.

[@Haildestroya]

Ahhh here we are back again😌

[@loveablearies]

Background singers voice iui s unbelievable!! ❤❤❤😘

[@Obstsalatissimo]

bassman just as cool as a bassman should be

[@evenbass]

Indeed! Whats his name?

[@johnnyeaton]

@@evenbass Darcy Yates, I think. Sure looks like him, anyway.

[@johnnyeaton]

His brother Clayton is also a very talented musician. Strong blood in that family. :)

[@drewbilboe9524]

Afie is such an amazing lyricist, composer, singer and guitar player. He and the band deserve all the success that comes their way and a whole lot more! BAHAMAS RULES!!!!!!

[@starcloudhidden8074]

Truly

[@eduardochozas7411]

Just saw Afie in Calgary a few days ago. If there was a second show I’d definitely be there. He and the band absolutely crushed the show.

[@carlstevens542]

Great songwriting and incredible musicianship. This is how music should be made: with love, devotion, and a deep appreciation for the art from.

[@TroubadourJuggernaut]

Well said .... agreed !

[@starcloudhidden8074]

Sitting back enjoying 💞

[@adamlowry7901]

There is absolutely no aspect of this band I'm not in complete love with, just amazing

[@carlavermeulen959]

I was just turned onto you guys through Michael Palmisano. Awesomeness! No doubt about it. Thanks... looking forward to hearing more.

[@everwhileuk4924]

Friend sent me a link to this yesterday. I’m utterly blown away by it!

[@gaucoin13]

Hot damn if this isn't my favourite performer on the planet right now. So good.

[@matth6932]

Gorgeous musicianship, sound engineering and composition. This album coated my soul with a warm blanket.

[@charitygrant4542]

I'm hearing so many things I love.. Steely Dan and Michael McDonald. My family cannot get over Bahamas.

[@cbcmusic]

Thanks for listening - and bringing in your family for it too!

[@AllisonRussell]

So beautiful - such a relaxed pocket - deeply soulful - and Christine Bougie’s playing slays me 🖤🌈

[@ReadingRambo152]

Christine’s solo stuff is amazing

[@andrewalbertson1]

Yeah they are absolutely incredible

[@christinaosborn8098]

Ended a down day with this pick me up. Soothing. Interesting balance here.

[@TSimms7]

I like live Bahamas. More of the beautiful backups and more Afie letting his fender loose. 😀👌

[@oddlogic1]

I agree. Apart from Opening Act having some really cool spacial effects going on in that recording, I prefer them live, 100%, from front to back. I think they smash their studio recordings with things like this.

[@Hippiemechanic]

Girlfriend and I saw them at '15 bonnaroo and this year in Tampa, Bahamas had been the first artist we saw at the festival. Absolutely lovely, brings tears to my eyes

[@laurenschilter7347]

I saw them at '15 Bonnaroo too!! Such a special set, always go back and watch the video of it

[@bcoull290]

Boston House of Blues

[@martybroussard9574]

Wow!!! Where have Ya'll been all my life 😎

[@debadams5602]

Everything is perfect with this music.

[@wickedgrinband]

So wonderful. Someone should name a group of sunny islands after them. What a band ! Danforth closing show was tremendous. Joyful !

[@edwinaleman2182]

The lyrics, the ambiance, the sounds I feel like I'm the first row, magical!

[@cbcmusic]

Cheers! We're glad you enjoyed it!

[@edwinaleman2182]

@@cbcmusic pure gold, the sound is so clean with earphones on! Perfect to enjoy with a cold one.

[@dedbeet5845]

Great combination of talented musicians and sound engineer who's learned the art of that science. Excellent.

[@sadjaycutler4962]

How can anyone not feel great listening to and watching this band?!... 20:00, Felicity almost starts laughing due to the joy of her "shoe-be,do-be" ing!

[@hayleyb467]

Joy bringer mos def♡

[@daveclevenger9210]

Song writers come and go but lyricists are a rare commodity. Don't know who is doing the writing here but it's genius. I'm hearing a Van Morrison/Steely Dan/ kind of vibe. The background vocals and chord voicing are magical and mesmerizing to the ears. Don't stop!

[@jeffenglish4587]

It's all Afie

[@tundeolabisi5224]

Get to see this live tomorrow in Chicago! so pumped!

[@dougclark966]

This is as good as it gets all around. Songwriting, guitars, bass, drum, vocals, patience, blend of all...

[@samlee2562]

Every rewatch I fall in love with someone else 👍🤖👍

[@trosati]

I could listen to the Bahamas all day. Great set!

[@luketimmerye3720]

Thanks Michael Palmisano for introducing this band to me. Great for running on the treadmill to!! He sort of sounds like Jemaine from Flight of the Concords.... :)

[@SmariTarfur]

Breathtaking music. I'll follow your every step. Greetings from Iceland.

[@reallife7375]

Unbelievably good!!!!

[@RobBardgett]

My five year old keeps making me rewind to Opening Act. Love y’all! Hope I get to witness y’all in person.

[@cbcmusic]

Starting em off young on good music! Well done! That's good parenting, right there!

[@debadams5602]

Beautiful music

[@shaloam93]

I came across "All the time" music video in of my buddys collection of music videos, i must have listend to it 10 times after eachother, Ive never disliked any of their songs till this day.

[@rockymiddleton195]

I hsv no words after 500 listens than it won't get better. I'm just gonna enjoy

[@williamdeslauriers4641]

Simply insane. Best tone ever heard. Thx Bahamas!!!

[@tonysmith6464]

Felicity Williams....you're amazing X

[@grover1135]

Bahamas music should be played as the default Canadian Govt call waiting music. Life would be better and it wouldn't matter if you're on hold for hours. Chillawesome.

[@MrRonique]

Those backing vocals ❤❤❤

[@danamarshall5568]

Just saw him last Thursday in Sudbury - best concert I've seen in years! Afie and crew are incredible.

[@waynemckinnon1238]

Late to the party and old enough to be your parents. Heard these tunes just now and I shall look for more. It's been said already here but wonderful production and performance. Thanks. Feel like I found something tonight. Much Love...

[@arnebey]

That's IT ! Live off the floor, real and magical as can be. I wished we could have all enjoyed Afi's and the bands reactions after each take.

[@rextyro]

This is so good. Tasteful, subtle, precise, and soulful. Thanks for putting this on CBC! And thanks to the band for all the music~

[@cbcmusic]

Glad you like it!

Omg are you from another universe! So out of this world freaking good! I just discovered you today! Food for my soul! Omg gidday your amazing all the way from Sydney Australia!

[@TroubadourJuggernaut]

Beautiful natural fade out ... killer band !!

[@rainydaylady7563]

Michael Palmisano has great taste and had the Bahamas band on his video. I love this and have them on constantly. Thanks to Michael for bringing this to us.

the only lyrics about a cell phone that don't sound cheesy and like a grade 5 student wrote the song, "don't keep me waiting on some SMS"

I first heard of these guys in 2012 when Lost in the Light came out. Forgotten about them since then. Looks like I have some catching up to do.
