I've always felt that Bronson's lyrical style is a poetic display of an intricate mind. One with so much to say, but never enough time to say it. He can tell a whole story and evoke an array of feelings in just a bar or two. It's a wildly beautiful form of art he's so casually pulling off. The band here compliments it perfectly. Emphasising the right chords and giving a sort of 'bounce' to the multitude of stories Bronson is telling. Waves you could say. Far out, what a set.

He’s touring right now with this band, check when he’s in town

[@weezer91101]

I’m kicking myself because my friend offered me a free ticket to see him a few weeks ago but I was just assuming it would be him and a dj and I being a musician don’t really go for shows like that. He sent me videos with the full band and I was like oh no. I made a horrible mistake.

[@CrakerzANDcl1tz]

He's doing this live at puffcon in la this year 🤙🏽

I’m such a fan of action bro, admittedly I don’t listen to his music as much but he is such a professional in everything he freaking does! Cooking? He can make Michelin star quality food, he can write music that’ll make the greats make a stank face, he can host a tv show like he was born for it, everything this man touches he turns into success, I hope I can shake his hand one day

[@erickgarciajumpman23]

he has a book too.

He is being himself 100%, its so rare to see these days. Hes a gem too few know about. I hope to see you live one day. Thank you Bronson for everything, you have a happy spot in my heart! Thanks to the band aswell for a beautiful performance

[@ExileLBL]

yep, no ego envolved. Just.. universe energy passing through this, theyre amplifiers.

He’s amazing live I’ve seen pre and post weight loss. He’s got the stamina of a race horse on stage and unbelievable presence.

This is what this is about, story telling, harmonic sound, talented people, just vibing and making their presence known every single moment in the music. fantastic

[@theinkdraft]

Bruh this is the best renditions of his songs yet every song sounded amazing, I hope this gets more people listening to him. NPR sound technicians really make every performance crazy it’s like I’m in the room. Someone give them a raise

Makes me happy how Action is genuinely blown away and moved by the instrumentation

Oh, he's blown away by more than one thing here 😀😀 It's almost embarassing how high he is. His honest and down-to-earth personality saves him tho.. It's so obvious how he loves doing what he's doing. You cannot NOT love him!
