Bill Laurance - Gold Coast (Flint)

[@nicolamoliere]

god knows this song means the world to me

[@bentaylor4705]

Beautiful composition. A favorite melody that sticks in my head easily. Great flugelhorn solo too 👏🏻

[@brandenburg05]

This whole album (Flint) is the largest collection of brilliant music I've heard in a long time. A great collection of soundscapes that run from stark to perfectly cluttered. I cannot express how wonderful it is to hear these pieces especially as performed with the Puppy folks. Their high level of play. takes this album and the listener somewhere that feels completely new. Thank you, thank you.

[@tonyphilpin6878]

The entire ensemble of Snarky Puppy 20-25 musicians are at the forefront of fusion and I just love the diversity of what they all do.

[@ivanchytil6279]

I had a dream that I was composing this piece of music. It was the best dream I ever had. :)

[@juliemaudet2865]

Wow ... Amazing ... there isn't word to describe how I felt when I heard this music for the first time

[@AkinAkinsanya]

Music that makes you pull to the side of road while driving, close your eyes, imagining what it would be like to be at a warless earth, while you take everything in. A masterpiece!!

[@QwertyVirtualReality]

The music makes me speed up

[@stefanobastianoni7719]

2:57 Woow..... It's like heaven...

[@jonlevymusic]

+Stefano Bastianoni Agreed!

[@toruguineo]

I wish i could hug this song

[@jmonie02]

forreal

[@fatmaru]

really love the tone coming from that cymbal placed on a tom.

[@gottesman007]

My new favorite. I just love how this song tells a great story.

[@CaptainMonocle07]

Man, I'm a huge fan of all of you Snarky Puppy's music and I just can;t shake the feeling that your music could do wonders as either a movie soundtrack or video game soundtrack. But like, a good video game.

[@AkinAkinsanya]

Like the Witcher

[@SamAnimations201]

I love ít! It's make me cry. So wonderful !!!

[@paulf.harvey1699]

Ageed!

[@kreyperez9842]

I get real excited when I hear those violins lead into that trumpet solo

[@shaikhyasin4618]

I love this. It represents hope for me

[@Latotalee]

C'est tout simplement la définition du bonheur. Regarde ton sourire dans ton miroir, ça y est? Bravo.

[@aidanmarr5227]

I'm glad to hear horn in Bill's stuff. This music is amazing, and I'm glad to have stumbled upon it

[@TheBarackAttack]

Love the strings on this one, and the gentle groove.

[@ImaginaryBluesMusic]

Can't help but hear "turning tables" by adele coming at 30 seconds in. both songs use a similar arpeggio and chord progression I guess...

[@yuniorreyesroque7688]

Brillante, no existen palabras humanas para describir esta música

[@MrSiouxman]

I cant help but see life from a small bird to a hawk to land animals living in yhe wilderness and interacting with each other..its like im playing a movie in my mind while listening wow

[@TONIKOBLER]

creativity is free , thanks for the post , musique

[@thebrforest]

The piano around 0:33 sounds a lot like Stars Race Across the Sky by Joe Satriani, which was released about a year after this - wonder if he drew inspiration from this song. Both great songs!

[@thiagoccmorais]

man.. what a sound!! great song!! great!!!

[@Drumroll418]

Maher vs. Mangione. Duel of the century!

[@j.cordero6965]

It's hard to tell them apart!

[@dominiquegaudin7291]

The melody from 3:51 to the end is so sweet, just out of this world

[@SoulbassJr]

very universal :D love it

[@lillianbebes9191]

[@pedrofbmb]

Bravo! Its just amazing.. Great job, guys.

[@margaritabrito4057]

so beautiful sound, lov it

So beautiful song. i would like to watch a clip for Ready wednesday too...

[@whyteaugust]

This reminds me so much of "Islands" by King Crimson (this is for me a good thing :) ). The tempo, the strings, the solo, the sloppy hi-hats. This is a tad funkier though. This is a lovely thing (so is "Islands").

[@Chasingmusiclife]

Really love this one!!

[@mylessebastianthompson8658]

Sublime intro.

[@billysbility]

Amazing!

[@MichaelJMcEvoy]

Lovely Stuff!

[@deephousemusicsoul2013]

Superb

[@mariacarmen3667]

QUE GENIOS

[@guillaumesireau-lesot1586]

magic

[@chocolatebeats8583]

Beast!!!

[@mikehawk2148]

That intro is kinda Brad Mehldau-ish improv. It's cool

[@jakiebravo4304]

nice

[@creamusjones1568]

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@Drumroll418]

Gold Coast is, well, golden. And no, I'm not sorry I did that. =D

[@jonathanmunoz310]

Yeah!!! (Y)

[@moisessoares4083]

😍😍😍😍😍

[@AntonioBetancourt48]

Los destinos.

[@Ken5253]

A Mazterpiece in flugelism by some guy.

[@herodude1000]

I believe his name is Michael "Maz" Maher.

[@triboluminiscencia_]

***** That's why it's a Maz-terpiece.

[@danieljgarcia5380]

I thought his name was mike maher not michael maher

[@Ken5253]

+Daniel Garcia Probably two different guys.

[@danieljgarcia5380]

*****​ maybe

[@StringsMusicImport]

Great, as always ! Hey Michael, what strings are you using on your violin bass ?

[@snarkypuppy]

D'addario Helicores!

[@groundUPmusicNYC]

Oh, sorry, actually D'addario Tapewounds. I thought you were talking about the upright.

[@StringsMusicImport]

groundUPmusicNYC Yes, I was talking about the Hofner. Thank you very much for answering, see you in Villefranche Sur Saone - 11/4 !

[@alejandroalejandro7682]

tab?

[@4585329]

What genre of music is this?

[@evert7271]

This is a pop band that improvises a lot, without vocals

[@SeraphusInferis]

Aren't half of these people also players in Snarky Puppy? I mean, I'm not complaining, I just don't know the personal relationships in these two Jazz groups...

[@mikehawk2148]

Michael League on upright?! Someone must have went back in time and stepped on a bug and changed the course of events

[@tomvanlieshout524]

Mike Hawk He actually studied upright, and graduated. He picked up electric bass later on, self-taught.

[@mikehawk2148]

Tom van Lieshout Wow! That's super cool! I'd love to see a Snarky Puppy jazz-session!

[@tomvanlieshout524]

Mike Hawk I JUST came back from a performance from Bill Laurance, Robert Searight and Michael League. They played in a venue in Tilburg. They were great, and I actually got a ticket for 5€ (School discount for the win!) . They mainly played songs from the new album, Swift, but also this track. It was truly beautiful. They were accompanied by 2 violists, 1 cellist and a French horn.

[@MrSiouxman]

I cant help but see life from a small bird to a hawk to land animals living in yhe wilderness and interacting with each other..its like im playing a movie in my mind while listening wow

[@reeodd2112]

It's funny, I had a scene where I was recounting my stay at hostel next to a beach during a rainy, gloomy day! I can just picture myself looking out the window of the hostel and see waves rolling in the beach under the grey skies, the warmness of the fireplace inside the room. I guess music brings out different things to people's minds!

[@MrSiouxman]

yeah that sounds beautiful! imagine what it would do to a person who has the same feels but is a painter as well!? I would paint a masterpiece!
