Guitar Teacher REACTS: PINEGROVE "Morningtime" | LIVE Amperland, NY

[@paleguytony]

It’s wild that Pinegrove is having this Moment (No pun intended) the second after they disbanded. I finally got to see them in Milwaukee after following them since 2015. I adore Evan and co. I Hope their hiatus is brief. They didn’t make a single bad album. Love when Michael covers my favorites. Keep on keepin’ on.

[@sigsour5421]

2017 is when I discovered them by a friend covering some of their songs. Makes me almost tear up

[@Alinsky12]

I got to see them a few years ago at a smaller venue and I’m so happy I got to see them. So much love for them ❤

[@dylanstankowitz1478]

Damn. I have been listening to PG for a bit, and had no idea they broke up within the last few months. This really brought me down. I cherish their old tunes, and went to a bunch of their sets in the tristate area.

[@brycez7352]

I didnt hear about them until the pandemic, one of my most played bands during those times. The Districts + Pinegrove.

[@FellDestroyedMusic]

I saw them open for Into It. Over It. 2016 in San Diego, I had no clue who they were. It took a few months afterwards until I was obsessed with them! I never got to see them after that :( please come back Pinegrove! :)

[@natetrout1]

Every pinegrove set is a masterclass in dynamic range…

[@kyledawson1657]

I would watch a marathon video of you going through this entire short film

[@83coffees]

nothing would make me happier

[@holymountainkitchen9671]

I third this motion

[@eltizoc411]

I fourth this

[@FREEM1ND]

Please do it! The entire thing is SO goddamn good.

[@EdBrooking]

I'll fourth this

[@brianholden1641]

One of the greatest feelings of my life was driving through Sequioa national park as the sun was setting with the light coming through the hemlocks and sequioas as that solo dropped. Made me feel limitless

[@phiwwie]

reminds me of the times i would listen on my way to work in north jersey... crossing the new hope bridge specifically. not as limitless, but also driving.

[@nateblock9945]

Someone has probably already mentioned it but also do yourself a favor and watch Pinegroves tiny desk concert it’s unbelievably good and the production is mixed so well it’s pure bliss listening on headphones! They are masters of the soft touch!! Definitely will get you in the feels! Thank you Michael for always bringing the positive passion!!

[@rjt135]

Literally just commented about that mix. Master class from the folks at NPR.

[@mattystorer]

Tiny desk is where I first heard Pinegrove, must’ve watched it 5000 times lol love them.

[@thiccchipotleburritos]

Audiotree is better imo but both are fantastic

[@natecorning]

Have loved this band for years, Im glad a big reaction channel has finally gotten around to them. Such talented songwriters. Hopefully we see more Pinegrove reactions on this channel in the future!

[@SeanStephensen]

Michael, if you haven't yet, do yourself a favor and watch the full Amperland movie on your own time. So much incredible musicianship throughout. This song is just the tip of the iceberg

[@Novoyboy]

It's so incredibly cool seeing the talent behind this band being talked about. I really hope this guy covers a lot more of their music.

[@forresterconnor651]

Seeing Micheal nerd out over Pinegrove makes me feel so happy! Glad they got featured on the channel finally :)

[@rjt135]

Love pinegrove. They play with tempo a ton in their music which feels really live. Check out the Tiny Desk concert for some killer stuff. Props to the mixing on that video.

[@JohnDickerson_]

This is by far my favorite Pinegrove song. Its wild how they're blowing up right now.

[@Nilsje]

That solo gives me goosebumps everytime ❤

[@stegolewis]

This is nuts… “Darkness” played on my discover weekly playlist (had never heard them before) and was genuinely moved by the song. Great song, great band.

[@BS-nv4ns]

One of the best sets I've heard from a basement, and I get to say it was my basement :) They had just released their first album and were driving around the midwest in the winter, we set it all up through facebook (RIP) We were all pretty disappointed in the lack of donations that night so it's been nice to see they made it home and some. We stayed up late with most of the band playing Mortal Kombat on the ps1 and smoking 'cigarettes' lol

[@grannydaoc]

the part where you started cheering during his solo got me. love your energy sir.

[@D3dshotCalamity]

You should listen to that whole video! Every song on that album is a masterpiece!!

[@alexrea3771]

By far my favorite live studio recording of all time. Saw Pinegrove a little over a year ago in STL. Top 3 concert for me. They are spectacular live. Also, so stoked you did this video. Love watching your stuff.

[@Nomadt72]

Love Pinegrove so much. Saw them in a small venue and the crowd was singing so loud that I couldn't hear Evan lol. So much intelligence and nuance in their songs

[@Throwawayjim119]

Yea i saw them in 2017 at a church called the Southgate House Revival in Newport KY. One of my all-time favorite concert memories. There was a second level with an organ above the stage. Maybe 400 people in the building

[@Nomadt72]

@@Throwawayjim119 sounds incredible. I have family in cinci and hope to see a show there sometime.

[@max_mittler]

6:11 also my face during that part haha

[@jon8304]

I watch/listen to Amperland and their Audiotree Live set pretty much on a weekly basis while at work. Pinegrove is so incredibly talented in such a tasteful and sonically interesting way. And Evan is a master songwriter/lyricist. I pray to god they get back together and start making more music and playing shows. If you're reading this, do yourself a favor and check out more of their music. And to each their own, but I prefer the live performance recordings over the albums, so sample both. This is a band that sure knows how to rework a song for a crowd.

[@PowderedWalnut]

I’ve gotten a lot of joy from your videos over the last couple years. I was so delighted to see this video pop up recently. Pinegrove is one of my favorite bands. Thanks for giving them the time and attention for this video

[@KevsanFGC]

Hell yeah love Pinegrove glad to see this band getting light shed on ❤

[@bradyharris4611]

One of my favourite songs of all time. Just brilliant. Somehow simple, yet entirely unique.

[@wilrowe3217]

Pinegrove YES!!! So many great tunes

[@AOHarness]

Have I missed something or are Pinegrove blowing up out of no where? Been a huge fan since their first album. Watching you dissect one of my favourite solos ever was incredible. I love their sound, but I have to say their earlier stuff is extremely thought out. I think they've probably found their sound now - which isn't a bad thing, but I do miss them really pushing their country influence.

[@marcustongue123]

I’m so here for the blow up. The band mean so much to me and just seeing any further content after their hiatus announcement is very welcome !!!!

[@maxxes]

yeah I think it's cause of that need 2 dance that was going around on tiktok

[@wright.boy_]

Their song Need 2 went viral on tik tok

[@danielcrowley5277]

Hell yeah, Pinegrove!

[@mynamefrank6567]

that solo flowed like a feather falling down, side to side, up and down

[@PedroFernandez-iv9sl]

I live in Barcelona and traveled to the Netherlands to see them back in 2016 when I first found out about them. The guitar player, Jodi, is also such an amzing artist and I love their music.

[@JJgeetarisst]

I can’t believe I’m only just now seeing this video. I’ve been a fan of Pinegrove for almost a decade and have always felt they were under-appreciated, specifically for their musicianship. I’ve been trying to get Beato for years to cover them on his channel 😂. So it’s cool to see a guitar focused channel finally cover them. Hopefully you’ll do another video on them soon.

[@Justin_Dykes]

Definitely all about the vibe..... And the vibe is STELLAR

[@xavi12R]

Love watching them live just to try and figure out what fingerings they use on guitar. Interesting how they form chords

[@0STDJ]

Love Pinegrove. Also like individual stuff from Jodi (Nico Levine) - who plays the solo here

[@JBaxter211]

Great video. It was kind of fun watching you discover how great Pinegrove is.

[@timothyamerman7033]

Yo, Michael. I love what you do, and you've made me change my mind on numerous bands, I'd love for you to dive in on stephan malkmus. Not pavement which he's famous for, but the early "stephen malkmus and the jicks" stuff. The song "water and a seat" gets me there, dude. Please.

[@maddenplyr12]

please do more pinegrove!

[@willanderson3224]

This is crazy. My favourite solo, so much feel

[@lm8404]

New band to me! Love it, so much!

[@davidvandunk6168]

Getting ready to add Pinegrove to my "list" for listening!

[@johngartland8738]

You definitely should, could not recommend them more!

[@bradymannion4344]

"you got that one" to the drummer killed me

[@bwhotwing411]

This song reminds me of 90’s alternative Bohemian music which I dig it

[@camandrew206]

Took me way to long to realize the room colors matched what each band member was wearing

[@FilipK123]

Pinegrove is the best, man

[@hunnergaskins8513]

Man pinegrove has taken over my tik Tok the last two days and this pops up lol The algorithm is real!!!

[@onlinegrape7326]

You should react to this entire movie!

[@ingry]

been commenting this bands name for years now, thank you lord

[@michaelgibler1530]

Try out Darkness by Pinegrove, probably my fav of theirs

[@jajones11]

God I love pinegrove

[@Keessette]

Seeing Zac (drums) give Nick (Guitar for the Solo) give them props because the two of them are siblings too. So touching

[@Tony_Leonardi.]

Santa Rosa here too!

[@alexolivera3151]

Love Pine Grove. Would love to see Size of the Moon or Rings done.

[@josephmcmurphy3179]

Pine Grove is amazing! Love their Audio Tree Live session.... But please do yourself a favor and check out Peach Pit! Great "Shoe Gaze Indie" with melting leads

[@CombatKitty007]

please more pinegrove

[@Sharpest_]

The Audio Tree version of Aphasia by Pinegrove is close to perfection.

[@MustardTiger1983]

Holy shit Santa Rosa!

[@masono4197]

You need to react to Red Leather ! ‘Once upon a time in Hollywood’ has one of the best guitar solos and shifts I’ve heard in years.

[@cequejediscest3490]

Hello, you are the best guitar analyst on KZbin to me. I would love to see you react on some Andy McKee or Stricagnoli ! Take care !

[@chemistrynerd]

reminds me of neil young

[@professorb3744]

Wish you would put the vid link in the description

[@njc2o]

Pinegrove shuffle when

[@colinschmidt3475]

This band is so fucking good it makes my heart hurt.

[@bwhotwing411]

Is Brian Birbiglia related to the comedian Mike Birbiglia?

[@SimMaster]

sounds like My Morning Jacket

[@thatmountain]

Pg has been one of my favorites since 2017. So good and excellent live. Too bad the drummer just recently left the band and they went on a hiatus just as they're getting a lot of attention online.

[@danfirth2678]

Definitely should check out the Audiotree session.

[@holdenruss3433]

You gotta do jack-a-roe by the dead live at knickerbocker

[@sebastiancarrall117]

Just listen to them

[@FlynnMcTaggart]

Have you ever reacted to any Lorna Shore?

[@noak_00lone]

Hi michael love the reaction vids. You should react to prob one of the best acoustic fingerstlye guitarists SUNGHA JUNG If not the best out there. I reccomend to check his original arrangements like NEON by john mayer its just insanely mind blowing PLS SEE THISS

[@haraldsletterod]

That this band has gone completely over my head and so many others in Europe is a damn sin!

[@beatawalczak2038]

🙏react to Carmen by Marcin Patrzałek 🇵🇱❤️❤️❤️🤍🤍🤍🇵🇱

[@davedave8608]

the guys from Weezer look different

[@stephaniebean4824]

🍀 Promo>SM

[@calebbostic7186]

First

[@gemmaeleri]

interesting breakdown of one of my favs songs by pinegrove. one tiny note is that the guitarist playing the solo actually uses they/them pronouns. it might help to look into the bands you're covering just a bit before recording so you don't miss anything like that! still a fun video, cheers!

[@Stonenewberrymusic]

Okay guy

[@bradbrad247]

Pinegrove is a solid group, but they're in such an odd place with regards to their perception. Some people adore them and a lot of folks hate them. I especially don't understand why they're so polarizing. They're a solid band. Nothing special or genre defining, but thwy don't have to be. They made solid, a bit better than average music. A bit melodramatic, but people really love that. I don't understand the people that are so against their music. It's ok to like 6/10 music. It's nice!

[@LordConstrobuz]

as a huge pinegrove fan theres something about this comment that really rubs me the wrong way, i would rather someone just say "they suck" than "eh they're decent, 6/10" lmao
