Reignwolf - Full Performance (Live on KEXP)

[@Keanus28matrix]

The fact that I found this 12yrs ago and this man isn’t mainstream is proof to me that the music industry is ignoring real artists and pushing trash industry plants. I pray the real artists with soul get the recognition they deserve ❤❤❤ Jordan’s music saved my life and he’s been a big inspiration to the artist in me

[@bad.chickie66]

Why do you want them to blow up? Then they end up selling out and getting lazy.

[@rajeshkoothrapali3489]

biggest agree of the universe from me 👍🏻

[@alililley5697]

Totally agree. This guy should be everywhere. Instead they promote manufactured shit.

[@twisterfilmsss]

same here! Jordan means a lot for me

[@johnwadd444]

That's life in a nutshell. If it aint approved by corporate it doesnt happen.

[@rexpopuli4833]

This guys music has that 'I sold my soul to the devil" type sound that makes soul music good. Incredible.

[@thefalselemon579]

That’s literally what I said to my friend when I saw him last night, like there’s no way he could be this good without selling his soul. God wouldn’t endow anybody with this kind of power, not even through hard work and practice. Nope, guy sold his soul for the prize of becoming a god on earth

[@origintrackz5235]

Fucking muddy water ressurected.

[@Matt-feldman]

@@thefalselemon579 no lol he just worked hard and probably had zero life playing guitar in his bedroom for years. It's not difficult

[@thefalselemon579]

@matthew-feldman thank you very much for your insight. We didn't know that at all, as we believe in gods and demons and that the earth is flat and there are Bigfoots in these here woods

[@arlequinfinelune63]

You're right, sir. But you're wrong: it's difficult to sacrifice social life for years.@@Matt-feldman

[@garthboes4046]

I've been watching Jordan since he was 8 years old perform all over Saskatoon, Sk. Even then, at our elementary school assemblies, Buds on Broadway, where ever, he could melt your face!! He's the real deal...and deserves all the success that comes his way. It's all hard work, and God given talent. I still follow him, and all his ventures, and am proud to have been lucky enough to grow up around this kind of talent.

[@9tailsfoxlovesaxel]

I didn’t know that! So cool!

[@TheNewSongwriters]

Ain't no realer deal on earth. I've seen Reignwolf in concert twice and both times he blew my mind. He starts with a three-piece band and keeps breaking it down and breaking it down and breaking it down until he's standing in the middle of the audience on an upturned drum playing his guitar like a sweat machine. This guy is so great he makes me cry.

[@Kodamair]

Crazy how this man just CASUALLY put out some of the most electrifying rock performances of all time and then literally DIPPED off the face of the planet..! like wtf? 😭💔

[@rosecityhawk]

This dude has been touched by something beyond the normal, what an amazing talent.

[@lazylion420]

still coming here in 2019 to enjoy the single greatest cover of The Chain ever performed

Damn straight!

[@nicholaschavira9779]

Yo if you thing this is the greatest I highly recommend you check out the sleepy sun’s version. It’s absolutely magnificent. Raw, eery, and just perfect

[@philliperomanzini1663]

2020 too ahahah he's amazing

[@sebastiendeschenes5197]

so sad this guy dont get much recognition! he deserve to be a rock legend

[@notryan2496]

One thing I love.... Is dirty dirty riffs.... Just raw nasty un-tuned, nasty blown speaker sounding riffs

[@swistone]

When you almost blew up my amp that new years gig downtown Saskatoon in 96 I was already a huge fan. You were a last minute addition to the show and I got to run sound for you. When someone from the crowd came up to me and asked why the guitar was so loud, I showed him the volume control for the guitar mic on the board and pulled it out to zero. The only difference was it lost a little top and bottom but the meat was still there. He looked at me and I explained: "It's his volume onstage, that's how he plays, I can't do anything about that." He walked away without being pleased, and that's a good thing.....if you can't handle the heat, get out of the kitchen.....what would have he said at Woodstock watching Hendrix?

[@stacywestly64]

What is so appealing about Jordan Cook? His passion. He really loves to play. He loves to sing. He loves to perform. Personally, I think he is terrific and I look forward to hearing more from him. I will be seeing him live in Los Angeles ... can't wait to feel that energy in person! For those complaining about the distortion ... this is a style of blues guitar. Take a listen to Dan Auerbach, Stevie Ray Vaughn and others ... this style is not to hide poor playing or singing. It is a style of gut-pulling, emotional, passionate blues.

[@sabbathian9542]

I want this on vinyl. In twenty or thirty years when Reignwolf puts out an album(probably around the same time as Tool's fifth album) I hope he records it "live" like Black Sabbath's first record, this music is so raw, I'd hate it to suffer from being overpolished

[@santiagoreyes-retana564]

Sabbathian95 it’s been two years, but they put out the album the same year...

[@Swawm]

and the Tool's album is out lol

[@ChaelSonnen000]

gravely outdated comment

[@Athikaful]

That is the best solo performance I have ever seen. Wow, how amazing!

[@DaruthTheHuman]

ive been thinking this whole time this was a new performance and this guy was about to blow up wtf what happened? this is the sickest shit still on the internet.

[@ianfuller2782]

Just by watching how he puts his whole body into his music you can see the level of soul he’s got in his art, just like holy shit this dude has talent

[@nickallen4622]

This is a human being the world rarely gets,and it’s a goddamn shame most mainstream radio avoids talent like this,kids a fucking legend In the making.

3:43 "go ahead ... keep going, dear!" she's in love :) and so am i

[@vicmcgrorty8928]

Thanks Roadies for turning Reignwolf on to the masses. Definitely a fan!

[@Ryden11Exists]

This STILL gives me chills. I don't understand how some can say he is bad, he's so authentic. Love the old blues inspiration!

[@user-rr5jc8sj4q]

I found my new favourite blues rock guy 💙🤘🏼

[@giri3224]

This guy doesn´t make music - he IS music!!! incredible

[@daveappleton1985]

And 7 years later - here’s an album!

[@codymontagnon9996]

I'm from saskatoon sask and Jordan used to play at local music festivals solo and he was amazing. wish he would come back because I can't get enough of him! hope your doing well Jordan. make that break because the world needs to hear more of you!

[@camt3787]

His music honestly gives me goose bumps every time I hear it. Thanks for inspiring me Reignwolf!

[@seriouslywill6306]

Still to this day I come back to listen to this set. I love it.

[@TheRaven0us]

This guy really gets the most from his instruments. Great use of dynamics, this shit is awesome

[@swistone]

You are the nexus of the future of music. And you tune a guitar like nobody's business. Creativity is reborn in the inspiration of your performance because you break it down to the core. Well done young man, all of your fans are with you all the way, especially those of us that have always loved you deeply.

[@bvitytwrbq]

I'm speechless. This really is a hope for good music in 21st century.

[@christianjimbomb8204]

I'm not gonna add a comment because there are so many bad comments already... I like this guy he is really good. Keep looking to the USA. Canada won't save you

[@disaudio243]

Ok seriously, idk if we should start a kickstarter for this guy, but he needs to put out an an LP pronto.

[@MeanderingSlacker]

disaudio243 I think they're trying to make one that works because if it works, it works like a Motherfucker. Last I heard he was talking to Rick Rubin. From my understanding is that money isn't an issue because he could start a bidding war if he truly need to. By which I mean finding a way to put his live show on a record, which is even better than this by a ton, in a way that the hype can survive the chopping block of the reviews.

[@LukasHaydenOfficial]

This man will be a legend

[@snottydyck]

Just caught this band tonight opening for Sabbath in Calgary. We have not heard the last of them. Great job!

[@westernhemlock]

[@jamesm876]

I remember seeing him about 5 or 6 times at a pub for free in Regina here.. I talk about it like it was ages ago but it was only a couple years back, he's getting big fast and rightfully so. I remember seeing him for the first time playing a solo on top of what seemed like an endless stack of amplifiers and I just thought "more people need to hear this".. every time he's in town here I try and chat with him. If you want to hear studio versions of 'electric love' and 'the chain' check out his solo record 'seven deadly sins'.. Saskatchewan pride!

[@BruceColon-BSides]

Incredible talent. This was awesome.

[@cyyytr0n]

His speaks his soul right through his instrument .. he isn't just playing, I can hear him shouting his heart out

[@problemchild799]

I've been playing guitar and a student of the bluesman and the blues way of life for forty years. You are a true son of the blues. You are a true bearer of all that Albert, BB, and Jimi ever taught. May you be blessed in all your ventures, and should you ever need guitar or amp repair in Seattle, I will do it for free. Don't ever stop doing what you are doing. You are carrying the torch of so many blues greats, don't ever take that for granted.

[@esehn6972]

He is just so legit!!! Luv it!

[@veteran913]

Didn't know of him but after seeing him play on Canada Day years ago in Saskatoon (his hometown), we were blown away by his guitar playing, vocals, his one-man band songs, just wow....why isn't he more popular!!

[@4spbiz]

Thank you Roadies for the introduction. This man is sooooo very fun to listen to and watch perform.

[@sccerstr13]

one of the best performers iv ever seen but the thing that really makes him stand out, is his personality and being one of the nicest people i have ever met

Best guitar sounds I’ve ever heard coming out of a 335.
