Never heard of these guys until about 10 minutes ago, when the algorithm threw up the short of Schism. I'm a lifelong fan now.

[@ashnewman9036]

😂 same how good!

Me too. They are fn geniuses

[@volatilexx7708]

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it once more now.. this woman’s voice is absolutely intoxicating. This is one of the greatest group of musicians I’ve ever seen.

[@trevorrowell9451]

And let's face it even Floyd got in Roy Harper to do the vocals on their original recording of this song. But at 73 it is great to hear so many talented young musicians doing superb covers of great songs from years gone by.

[@miriamjohnson8857]

Absolutely correct...I just discovered them through their Tool short. Amazing musicians & the singer is "intoxicating "

[@allengray5748]

5 years late to the party 🥳🎉 and I gotts to agree

[@davewylie654]

It's spiritual for real

[@volatilexx7708]

@@davewylie654 agreed. I can only imagine what it would’ve been like to be there.

[@bobbywebb4151]

Thank you shorts, and my Tool addiction, for leading me to this wonderful rabbit hole❤️🤯

[@TheAedalas]

"rabbit hole" Speaking of, check out their cover of White Rabbit while you're at it

[@13christbane]

slow picking banjo in a floyd song. what a world we live in. this is fantastic.

[@scottallan2727]

Never in my wildest dreams someone playing Gilmore with a banjo.You have got to be kidding me?Brilliant , really.

[@scottallan2727]

. Beyond off the charts.

[@Raz_Peach]

So i I just got this band on my algorithms out of the blue. I first heard the best goddam Schism Tool cover in the world. And now Pink Floyd !?!? Who is this band and why are they not more known? Unbelievable band, sound, musicality…and the vocals are out of this world!! WOW!! I am a new fan!!

[@Raz_Peach]

Oh and White Rabbit form Jefferson Airplane is just outside of the normal. Incredible

[@jonschroedinger8360]

They were fairly popular in the music scene in Colorado back when I lived there. Enough so that the bartender at one of the bars I frequented got their album installed in the jukebox (old school jukebox) and they were played quite regularly on rotation. Great band. Definitely not enough recognition, but here they filled Red Rocks so they're making their rounds.

[@thomasmoroney1079]

I’m actually in tears being a huge Floyd fan. The banjo at the end was just perfect ❤

[@zaoria123]

The band is just fantastic, that is really what I think.

[@fryedpiper5887]

Wtf the dude played the solo on a banjo... amazing

[@TheRealDealBobbySteele]

Banjo solo was awesome!!

[@originalpoksta]

I’m late to the party on them as well sadly. Incredible performance! Not many cover Floyd with grace like this, especially “Have a Cigar”. These cats are special!

[@davidhorsfield4462]

I feel David Gilmour would appreciate this cover. A banjo solo - and her vocals. Mind blowing !!!

[@LibertyOrBust]

Can't believe I'm just finding this band. 11 years + 1 too late. Alas, they have left fantastic recordings.

[@jbusteratgmailcom]

They did a show last Saturday. amazing as always.

[@HAL9007]

@@jbusteratgmailcom WHAT..??!! I thought they were kaput. So, they do occasional performances? Probably just in Colorado? I'll keep a bag packed and ready.

[@hazycosmicjive7]

Excellent rendition! Your band is just fantastic, that is really what I think 👌

[@GreyBush66]

[@danreilly2792]

I concur! Awesome band 😎

[@gailmurphy7870]

So fortunate to see them at LEVON HELM'S barn in Woodstock.A very special night

[@metalmacabre9991]

This woman has a beautiful voice, it just pulls the listener in. Its like a drug for my ears.

[@okiefish7066]

Oh my god i didnt know the banjo could make such a sound...excellent work! Great song!

[@bradleyday6427]

The banjo work is amazing! Check it out on their White Rabbit cover, too!

[@johnkilty5091]

I love the tone of her voice.

[@Blaketbailey]

Seriously!!

[@toddmontondo364]

Absolutely

[@SanchezDrummer]

These guys are great. 5 years late but loving it all. Banjo solo? Nice.

[@MrPhotodoc]

Dude has some chops playing Gilmour solos on a banjo.

[@TheNaaf-ui6nl]

The band is great and Bonnie’s singing is brilliant!

[@bradleyday6427]

Tell me it's not so...the band is all done? I am so glad I took a chance on a band I never heard of coming to our little town, and experiencing them in a cozy, intimate venue! I was very lucky!

[@elephantrevival]

We're back! Just played Planet Bluegrass last weekend! Hope to see you at a show soon :)

[@ZodyZody]

I never dreamed I'd find a band able to do justice to Pink Floyd!

This is the vibes of all vibes😢❤🫠

[@macromicrodragon]

Best cover of this song in existence!

[@jamesschroder5944]

These guys always pick songs that are rhythmically difficult and unusual, Love it.

[@jonathansanders9816]

Everything about this is perfect.

[@TheSkateboardingShow]

Wow, that was amazing

[@robertrighetti6478]

This band is totally outstanding! The violinist takes me back to the incredible Flock recordings!!!! And the banjo is genius, absolutely genius!!!!!

[@mikemckenzie3175]

The best sounding banjo I have ever heard so impressive

[@dgymnast6473]

Just discovering your band. Wow. Great musicians, magical voices and properly mixed. Kudos to the sound person. Beautiful!

[@Purple-Dove]

Can't get over how good this is!

[@m.theresacondi9498]

I am mesmerized by this song and incredible band. I'd pay anything to see them play live.

[@natashadonnelly8909]

They're back and they've got a handful of shows this year. My ticket was only $40 (so "anything" won't knock you back too far.) If you still want to see them, look their concert schedule up. 😊

[@monoshock57]

Please come back, we miss you all.

[@Timber81]

She has a Grand Slik quality to her voice. Love it!

[@ViperKillerWannabe]

Took me a minute to realize I was listening to a banjo solo. Amazing job guys.

[@CD-pq1yv]

Beautifully kooky genius. Flawless. The Floyd should salute you.

[@christopherliebler]

Well I was lucky enough to see Floyd twice once with Waters and once with Gilmore and you guys pulled it off thanks

[@humancargo7285]

I only got to witness this magic once and for that ill be sorry the rest of my life... We can hope and pray one day they clme back tpgether even for one show

[@alixlm1]

Absolutely breathtaking.

[@davidtucker2948]

Holy shit ! Absolutely incredible gaggle of musicians.

[@angeloclelan5]

Awesome! If you haven't been to the Red Rocks, I highly recommend the venue, I really can't put it into words.

[@lori_dawn]

I was at this show and it was awesome! Saw them twice @ Red Rocks and a dozen or more x's on the East coast - always a GREAT show! Followed Bonnie & Bridget from MyTeaKind - then to ER which was a brilliant collaboration of talent. Breaks my heart ER is no more, but I know individually they'll all continue to make amazing music.

[@tomw4249]

Love this Band!!!

[@TheBassManJeff]

The way everyone jumped in at the "If we all pull together as a team" is exactly how it should be done. Amazing cover!!

Love Bonnie and the electric banjo!

[@vicinvesta8349]

Mesmerizing !

[@legendary.super.shannon9699]

The vocalist, lead guitar, & violinist all deserve a raise. Give 1 to the drummer & bass player too. Hell just give all of them more money, cause after this & the Tool -Schism video, they're all killing it up there.

Chills

[@EducatedSkeptic]

Bonnie is just an incredible vocalist .... and the group as a whole is perfection! Have heard several of their performances at Red Rocks, and they're absolutely awesome in every one! May they go on as a group well into the future, and not break up due to internal squabling! (Who knows where the Beatles would have gone, had they not broken up to pursue their independent careers? Heck, John Lennon might even still be alive!)

[@Blues666]

Wow, what a version! Great!

[@stevewilliam]

Guy busts a Gilmour solo on the banjo never thought I'd see that

[@pavkey88]

Pretty cool indeed
