Rival Sons - Face of Light (Acoustic)

[@kamilecepaviciute2169]

The world is holding because of this.

[@scullyvisionofficial]

Still one of my absolute favourite live performances, ever... if not, actually my favourite. Just perfectly imperfectly perfect.

[@mohasyd3942]

my father told me about the Beatles, led zeppelin and other bands.. I'm gonna tell my children about this band

[@SunshineLuvsmusic]

Moha Syd THAT is a BEAUTIFUL thing 💜🎸💝🎤💙

[@JobinFerreira]

Me too :)

[@brianhendrix8330]

Tell your father! My kids listen to Zep, Skynard, Clapton, etc., because that is what they grew up listening to with me. They've introduced me to others they listen to...but I introduced them to Rival Sons, as soon as I discovered them. Music is a beautiful thing to share between parents and their kids! We play and sing together too! It's an awesome feeling sharing something so personal with them that brings us joy! 🎸🎤🎼

[@smc8440]

So lucky to have live through Zeppelin and Rival Sons. From a girl who was a concert rat and saw just abut every rock band from the 1970s I can tell you Rival Sons has that quality. I love them so much.

[@teme007]

This is super OK, but your father lived just in time

[@danielww9022]

Pay close attention, kiddies. THIS is how you make people cry with gorgeous, real music.

[@robpattison6606]

have you been paying attention to Billy Strings?

[@danielww9022]

@@robpattison6606 I'm not hip to Billy Strings, but I'll look him up in a few minutes. Thanks for the tip.

[@jmzbnd724]

Probably one of the best performances made in a radio station anywhere..anytime

[@umdoistreseja]

Absolutely!

[@leahbethwalkerj3256]

I don't care how many times I watch this, I always get chills. I adore everything they do, but this is an absolute masterpiece and one of the most beautiful things I've heard.

[@danreynolds14]

🤘🤘🎸 🎸

[@FrankieBag0donuts]

You don't just hear this... you FEEL it down to your core!

[@TalentlessMusic91]

I get sad when I share this masterpiece, and none of my friends appreciate the soul and art that is Rival Sons - but hey more for myself :)

[@bradleygomez44]

Agreed bro...I feel the same way

[@carmenmarquez1467]

I accompany you too!

[@hrdcoremetalchik]

+David Zeidler Totally! Saw them two nights ago...and I literally cried like a child after hearing Where I've Been... I was so overcome with emotions! My friend next to me is constantly complaining that there are no good bands anymore...I said " here is a great band..." no response. Like his soul is already dead, or his mind is too closed.

[@SunshineLuvsmusic]

David Zeidler The Rival Sons should get more noteriety. Believe they are the best thing to happen to music in YEARS. I have followed them for years and I look forward to seeing them again and again.

[@patrickclausen8435]

Anne Marie: My son told me about them, like, 5 yrs ago, been mesmerized ever since! I can honestly say there IS NOT one song that I don’t like!!! Amazing, under appreciated group! Curious if this “bigger” label contract will give them more notoriety in the States?

[@shariblack4128]

Gettin me some Scott Holiday guitar soul food as the New Year, 2024, descends upon us! I adore you, Scott🎸❣️

[@gemmawright2000]

This is honestly the best vocal performance of all time. Right here in this video

[@kawafahra]

search „ jordan“ of them. Up there with this

[@atheistbychoice]

Fully agreed

[@GratitudeHappinessBacon]

Oh man - I discovered this band in 2020 after I crawled out from somewhere. I pray that Jay never loses this voice. He is just incredible!

[@BradCross1982]

Glad you found them. Been listening to them since 2014, I tell everyone about them

[@janicehopkins1182]

Understand what you mean by “crawling out from somewhere”. Same here 😂

[@jimperry8086]

Glad you made it out

[@pedronmanaro1596]

Jay Buchanan and Myles Kennedy, the two best voices in rock and roll today

[@DaviNascimento33]

This intro is amazing and the song is perfect. This is probably the best radio performance ever.

[@thomasnagy124]

raw talent doesn't need autotune and effects.

[@garyjohnson1477]

+Thomas Nagy Well said.

[@slimcheese90]

Thomas Nagy real music made by real talent

[@450asg]

Why would you ever mix autotune with rock?

[@hex_child]

I bet he put much effort to achieve this insane level. It's ok about singing in key, but his use of voice is just crazy. He put much more weight in to his upper register that a lot of guys before him. He is monster)

[@italiajass]

Raw talent shows its face in many ways, a great voice and the ring of an acoustic guitar have a natural appeal but your lack of ability to appreciate music that is made in other ways says nothing about the music and more about you

[@mickd.4081]

I'm thankful these two talented men found each other.

[@Weloz92]

4:40 "Hold on, lemme just turn this way and---" *proceeds to tear down the building with his voice*

[@spotted36]

I thought he was just getting up to leave and...

[@zoebiboei216]

Given it some beans!!!...... Go Jay

[@SuperYockster]

I've never had to turn my head so as to not destroy the room with my powerful voice. I wonder what that feels like.

[@jopanofmanypets1320]

😆

[@lcpltylerhanyzewski]

There's a version of jordan they do, where jay steps back and turns. Has to be a good 4+ feet from the mic

[@chrisparti]

His mic distance control in this performance just shows how loud it must be when he's belting, as you rightly said he's turned around and screaming at the wall to stop the VU needles bending on the desk...

[@dslturbo92]

Bro's fix bro's microphones. Right on, Jay.

[@robertnewsom4037]

The last of my elders have just passed over. These 2 guyz help me get thru this and appreciate what I have left, even more. Keep up the good work and seen you soon in Detroit.

[@CosmicFuzzFM]

No headphones - and still flawless mic technique. Damn this guy's good.

[@garyjohnson1477]

+Skunky Vibes Mic technique is lost on most singers as they tend to be know it all, unreliable, douche nozzles, but this dude is on it. I'd imagine he "had" to learn it as he sings "full voice" which is rare, and tends to royally fuck up any attempted recordings if you have NO mic technique. I've no idea how these dudes aren't the biggest band in the world. Jay Buchanan's voice is the best I've heard since Vedder back in the day. He's moving every time you hear him.

[@CosmicFuzzFM]

Gary Johnson I can't help but wonder this myself! If Great Western Valkyrie doesn't launch them into super-status, their next album is sure to be massive. Simply because it seems these guys aren't willing to surrender until every turntable on the planet is playing their records.

[@garyjohnson1477]

I should hope not. They've singlehandedly restored my faith in music. Especially here in LA which seems to but filled with shitty DJ's who've convinced themselves they're actual musicians.

[@lennytadeo7236]

+Skunky Vibes first heard of and saw them with Sabbath last month in LA, Can't believe I never heard of them... Airplay aint what it use to be!

[@user-og4rs8ve5v]

[@giovannidelcorso]

Man, these guys are just legit. Jay helping with the mic at the beginning, it all seems so organic, so natural.. They should be much, much bigger than they are. Just amazing! What a voice!

[@rossshin184]

Way way better than the studio version. Tears flowing and glowing.

[@shariblack4128]

Scott Holiday and Jay Buchanan . . . such talents. I could watch tbem.endlessly. MY FACE OF LIFE SHINES ONLY FOR YOU, BUT YOU ARE NO WHERE TO BE SEEN. YET.

How can anyone not be awed by these guys?

[@garylee5899]

AMEN!!!

[@robpattison6606]

agreed but sadly they faded out faster than Greta Van Fleet

[@baileyjade9875]

Best band I’ve heard in a long ass time. I only just discovered them a couple months back. They need to be played more. But I’m glad they aren’t being ruined by the music machine. True artist. Jay is amazing and him and Scott compliment each other so well. This is real music. A little bit of everything in them. Great band damn.

[@DWF73]

Damn son. Smoking finale to that one.

[@anthonytalbot6002]

I keep coming back and listening to this song. in my mind it is perfection. I love music but this is the only song (this version at least) that I think is absolutely perfect.

[@kingandrews]

The best singer of the last 20 years!

[@israeljuarez7380]

An absolute thing of beauty. Exquisite, sublime, timeless, and not one single note was missed this day. We’ve all just witnesses greatness in its purest, raw form.

[@DrewColeMusic]

holy soul power, unreal performance!

[@andruskisteele1897]

When I feel times are tough and I need a reminder of why I need to get up everyday, this song is my reminder, and my light is my wife. To bring me back from fear and disparity, the reason to never give up. Just a glimpse of her smile when she’s happy brings light to my soul. Even with worn hands and fading eyes, till thee end. so powerful my eyes are never dry when I Listen to your music from your heart. Thank you for the strength this shares

I discovered a week ago, same here. They have moved to top of list.

This blows away the recorded version... this could be in my top 10 perfect songs when sung "this way" just Scott and his rez and Jay singing what is more a cappella style

[@blaze00073]

Rival Sons is just amazing and powerful. Love these guys! They never disappoint...

[@dhorn48]

I'm blown away by this band, especially Jay's vocals. Just saw them last night at The Belly Up Tavern in San Diego. They were true to form and sounded as good or better live than they sound on their CD's. Can't wait until they come back around to San Diego so I can see them again.

Reminds me a lot of Jeff Buckley for god's sake, impressive vocals. And specially in the first verse falsetto, incredible resemblance to good ol' Jeff.

[@cavdragoon]

Only 4,801 people have had the chance to hear this amazing piece of music. In one way i feel lucky that they are not huge, and in another sad that they deserve more.

[@ctgranto1]

Rival Sons.....keep it up guys. You are not carrying the mantle, you ARE the mantle in this dreck filled, plastic sheen, fairy scope, putrid cheeseball musical landscape. Face of Light will be a classic, keep playing it.....don't buckle. The new stuff is good too...keep churning it out. You have surpasses The Black Crowes (your closest sound similar band) in my mind as far as diversity. Who cares about the charts? They have never been so manufactured. Come to Detroit for a few shows in a row and see what following you will get here.

[@killaJools]

the more and more I listen to these guys the more I hear. Their songs are thoughtful and beautifully constructed. It's so UNRock to be so precise but they do it so effortlessly that it becomes Awesome ROCK. Listen carefully to every song many times and you'l see what I'm saying. And the backup vocals are awesome too.

I am so glad That Metal Show turned me on to them and their music two years ago because I have been a major fan every since. TMS knew a year into this bands career that this was a band that was going to take over quickly, and you can see it a year later all the guests are saying it is their favorite up and coming band. That says a lot about their talent.
