A while back I was at a concert in Austin and a really nice guy came up and started a conversation with me. I asked him what he did and he said “I play violin for a band called The Oh Hellos.” Cool to see him looking just as happy here as he was talking with me. Rare to meet such a genuinely nice person.

I absolutely love them!!!

[@rickylafleur5804]

I can totally tell the 2 lead singers are brother and sister because their harmonies are fantastic and they sound amazing together :)

[@jkyles1000]

I've been a musician forever and probably the biggest challenges to playing in a band and playing original music is that you always have the issue of egos that can mess everything up. Someone overplays or plays too loud. They want to be in the spotlight. I would guess this issue is what prevents most bands from making it. And the more members you have, the greater the chance of having a problematic ego. But all these band members listed here in the Oh Hellos obviously set their egos aside order to make beautiful music. This tells you so much of what they're probably like as people. You know they're each quality people that you'd want to be around and get to know.

[@traciemchugh3114]

For me, the music by The Oh Hellos is just like a warm hug, a cup of tea on a rainy day, the smell of the rain and the forest, everything healing combined. I alway start to cry when I listen to them but afterwards I just feel like I'm glued back together. It's amazing what music can do to humans, and I'm amazed how much this music in particular does for me. This was wonderful to watch :)

[@owenpeters1823]

He says that the performance of Exeunt is more impressive with the full setup, but this version is my favorite. The energy it holds is more raw and personal, and the full group singing "I have set my mind and my will" helps release that energy. It has been building through the song as the reasons to leave have become more and more clear, and with that burst of strength and resolve, the clarity of the final "I am Leaving" is properly driven home I have nothing but love for this song, and this version is the best I have heard

[@nigelpassage2]

i've gotta give credits to the sound guy. only a couple mic's and it sounds so good, every single desk concert

[@FriteVerte]

There's usually a mic for each ellectric instrument. Its right in front of their monitors, not shown by camera i think. They did a video where they show the mic setup.

2:05 "Don't you worry because in there you're safe, and it's true you'll never beat but you'll never break" *Did you know* this was likely inspired by this Lewis quote? ... "To love at all is to be vulnerable. Love anything and your heart will be wrung and possibly broken. If you want to make sure of keeping it intact you must give it to no one, not even an animal. Wrap it carefully round with hobbies and little luxuries; avoid all entanglements. Lock it up safe in the casket or coffin of your selfishness. But in that casket, safe, dark, motionless, airless, it will change. It will not be broken; it will become unbreakable, impenetrable, irredeemable. To love is to be vulnerable.” ― C.S. Lewis, The Four Loves

[@alicehodges483]

They have an album named Dear Wormwood, which is heavily based on and named after the Screwtape Letters, which is also by Lewis, so it seems quite likely! :D
