This is my favourite band of all time. My mom would play their music all the time in the car when I was a kid. There is not one song of theirs that I dislike, and listening to them brings me back to my childhood, and brings me to this place of being in which I'm truly happy and myself. They mean more to me than any other band.

Talented people, modest artists, cool personalities, and good looking to boot. I hope all good things happen to you guys! Where is Love Now gives me freakin' chills!

[@IAMMASONDAVIDSONGOBIN]

I love these guys so, so much... Music is so beautiful this makes me cry

[@organicistheway5956]

This band has such an amazing story. How truly devoted these musicians really are. I am so very pleased that they have so much heart, talent and perseverance. This is the kind of music that will last forever. Thank you so much Nickel Creek, for sharing your gifts with the world :D

[@thejigantics2641]

The band that won that competition must have been some kind of unit. Love Nickel Creek with a passion

[@WokCorner]

Unbelievably talented people. I love their attitude and stuff. Cannot wait for a gig in London, already got tickets. Chris is just sickenly talented and I just have no words for the songs they wrote, either Nickel Creek or Punch Brothers really

[@janicekroeger1771]

I saw the two in Pennisula but the three made music magic happen. I'm glad to see them together again.

[@MamaPinks]

These guys are troopers! Chris was sick and had missed the plane for the show in Burlington Vermont years ago. They made it, albeit late and put on an amazing show. It was worth the wait. When I heard Smoithie Song live, I lost my shit! It's one of my deserted island songs.

These “Three” are Awesome ❤️

[@Katie._.draws.]

Some of the finest music ever made. Your neighbor from Fallbrook, CA

[@Findnyou]

There aren't words to express how much I love these three.

[@stepitupandgo67]

I love them...I'm surprised they didn't win their first band contest when they were kids..I bet they already shredded...really cool to hear how these songs were created....'the rest of my life' is a masterpiece....I also love '21st of may'

[@jiniu4083]

they are the best

[@highonimmi]

chris gets so deep into his explanations while sean and sara are patiently waiting on him to get to the point. lol

[@paulelliott3220]

A Dotted Line is a great record Superb band and they've done some awesome solo work too Great indeed

[@caramason56]

Awesome band 👏👏👏🎶🎶🎶❤️❤️❤️

[@vw1610]

I’m sad I missed this by 8 years.

[@wsupnet]

So inspiring! :'D

[@thescowlingschnauzer]

Huh, in Rest Of My Life I hadn't noticed that about the verse contracting and the chorus expanding. That's a very Chris Thile idea. More like what he'd do with Punch Brothers. It's really cool.

[@stepitupandgo67]

+thescowlingschnauzer I noticed, cuz I had to learn the song as soon as I heard it...

[@thescowlingschnauzer]

+Evan Davidson Do you learn by ear? Or found lessons or tab online? I love Nickel Creek, Punch Brothers, Goat Rodeo - pretty much anything Chris Thile is involved with, but have trouble sounding it out by ear.

[@stepitupandgo67]

yeah just slugging it out by ear...but I bet there are tabs out there....I haven't heard goat rodeo,...but I'm sure I better...!! x)

[@thescowlingschnauzer]

+Evan Davidson Highly recommend Goat Rodeo. I think it was between the Nickel Creek breakup and Punch Brothers. It's Chris Thile, classical cellist Yo-yo Ma, classical-jazz-bluegrass bassist Edgar Meyer, and the best gentleman of a fiddler Stuart Duncan.

[@stepitupandgo67]

oh yea...I saw on tiny desk...yea hard to go wrong with those musicians..!!!

[@thescowlingschnauzer]

"Post folkcore"?

[@Huntrguy102]

Haha I know right? What?

[@kenutcha7]

Chris Thiel, I'd like you to meet a friend of mine. "Chris, meet comb" Love the music, but that hair, Yikes!
