The Joy Formidable - YouTube Presents[Live]

[@demetrios3232]

That's one hell of a lucky audience. Despite being deceased, they still get to hear an awesome band!

[@hunter11000]

Too funny

[@scrippit29]

buy their records so they have money to keep playing!!!!been a fan since first release.. if you dont' buy their records they don't make money to eat and keep making more records... SPEND YOUR MONEY so they keep making us music.

[@Wildeheart79]

Calm down mate, they're a great band but no one owes anybody else a living.

[@BenyCK]

Love typical Welsh banter, great band, soooo underrated.Welsh are most talented musically on this planet imho.

[@ronparsons8786]

I'm just here in 2023 enjoying the hell out of this again. I saw these guys live three times and goddamn they were awesome

[@blakewu1375]

You guys are certainly Formidable!

[@BradJenii]

26:31 Is the epic moment where the drummer flips the bassist the bird mid song. Respect.

[@AFluffyBunny4]

Wow! Just Wow!

[@Leatherfirehat]

Okay, the crowd made it into the wrong studio, they were extra's for "the walking Dead"! Words cannot describe this band, they are way beyond their time! Unbelievable performance!!!!!

[@duncanpoundcake]

Great Music. Great stare. Great screaming at the amp. Great chucking of guitar. Great legs.

[@piscian18]

22:33 and onward is probably the greatest live sound I've ever heard. It's unbelievable how they pulled that off.

[@mjbckr]

Having the live harp makes such a difference in Whirring. Amazing.

[@mlette408]

I've watched this performance many times and good god, what energy! Mad respect to this band. Sooooo good!

[@kiddhex2795]

0:45 The Greatest Light Is The Greatest Shade 6:14 Austere 13:19 A Heavy Abacus 17:07 I Don't Want To See You Like This 22:31 Whirring

[@mrbobawesome]

I never get sick of this performance. Absolute perfection.

[@wealltrytoohard7]

The Joy Formidable has become my new musical soulmates! And I now have fell in love with the lead singer lol

[@ricci777]

This band shreds like it like few can.

[@pauldaddario9343]

One of my Top Three bands ever music, lyrically and live. "The failed man's curse and the cost of noncholance."

[@ryanellingson8840]

unbelievable energy, could not sit still while watching this

[@MrDavid5388]

Seen them a couple of weeks ago in front of the Foo Fighters and all i can say is DAMN, this band can get a crowd jumping. They are such a power house!

[@hartmyndsole]

She's so badass. love it.

[@brettsadler4211]

Unreal talent. Reminds me of when pearl jam goes into their jam in the middle of rearview mirror. This band has perfected a sound that hits you in your soul. Bravo. I simply can't get enough.

[@hunter11000]

This is one of the greatest endings to any song ever made! Wow doesn’t describe how awesome they are live.

[@Adrhodes442]

This band is AMAZING.

[@twotractony]

I agree, definately when you see this band live you sense that you are in the presence of greatness. And why cant this crownd sense this? They are a special band and I cant wait to see them.

[@miked4309]

dont even need the sound.....just watching them play is a treat. especially ritz...

[@miked4309]

+miked4309 i finally get to see them and i got the VIP package. i get to meet all of them and hang before the show. so stoked.

[@tongroenendijk]

I saw them in Rotterdam a month ago. Awesome! And they cover Badlands from Bruce Springsteen! I'm delighted without having heared it.

[@hustler3of4culture3]

You folks really bring it. I've seen you three times and always enjoy your EPIC nature.

[@mh-ye1vw]

22:30 onwards really breathtaking bravo. 👏😍

[@MKrip808]

Don't worry JF, there's tons of us out here hopping and hollering for you. What a fantastic full sound for only three instruments. You rock!!

[@alvaroindice]

+MKrip808 There is a lot of backing stuff going on... but sounds great

[@AdieBurton]

Awesome! Best live band since Thin Lizzy, Energetic & Dynamic.

[@spacedoginnebraska]

I guess it doesn't matter when I found them, it's that I found them. My new favorite flavor.

[@Piero5711]

+spacedoginnebraska Hi! you are from USA? The are had a big tour USA!

[@spacedoginnebraska]

+Piero5711 Yes. I see they are coming to a city near me soon, too! I'd really love to see them!

[@Piero5711]

+spacedoginnebraska The are play today on Lima Perú :-)))

[@thebpdcoach]

I've listened to this a thousand times over the past couple years. So fire.

[@embercriss77]

Wow!!!!!great band!!!!!

[@Lanzblitz]

She sounds great live

[@TheDonDCAC]

Yea for sure, it was a great show, the fact that it was only $5 was just icing. Big thumbs up.

[@irockbry]

I still remember seeing you guys at MSG opening for the Foo Fighters! YOU GUYS ARE AWESOME LIVE!!!!

[@FCMahgeetah]

Huge sound.

[@startmelaughing]

I want to see them live so bad; they're so precious :< ♥

[@ricci777]

I am 44, seen just about everybody, this band hammers down in a way that few can. Seen them 3 times, they just get better and better. Just because Ritzy is not Stevie Ray Vaughan or Eric Clapton, don't be crass. You wish you could do half of what she does.

[@jackboone91569]

I saw The Joy Formidable @ The Orange Peel in Asheville...all I can say is what a show!!!

[@Baxionimusic54]

Awesome i'm the biggest fan in netherlands i think soo Woowwwwww yeah

[@tomazuster8315]

I can feel the part that is Celtic of my blood vibrating. God blees Us all.

[@larock1982]

great band

[@AWSOMEPOSSUM16]

The second I heard my local Alternative radio station play Whirring, I fell in love. The Joy Formidable for life!

[@BenyCK]

I bloody agree!

[@TheDonDCAC]

big fan of the drummer on the side like that...saw them in columbus a while back...best $5 show i've ever been to.

[@stuckbetweenV]

Seen these guys live twice now, the pure energy that they scheduling is so ducking raw. One of the best bands to see live, and I can't wait until their next album

[@chuck6686able]

I LOVE IT!!! WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN ALL MY LIFE?

[@awolsurf-TC]

Ritzy's brand-loyalty for Strats is amazing.

[@mrbobawesome]

Mods them with a split rail in the bridge, and she's all set. There's another concert where she starts off with a white Strat w/gold pick guard. At some point there's an issue so they swap it out for a black one with a broken headstock. I'm trying to find more info on it. It looks like it had some kind of repair to keep the high E tuner in place. While I'm more of a Tele guy, I love my 89/90 Am Std. Strat. Probably the easiest playing guitar I've ever had my hands on.

[@awolsurf-TC]

@@mrbobawesome Nice info....yes, I am like 50/50 on Jazzmaster & Stratocasters. Love to see Strats used in this type of music by band like TJF and Nothing. She has this cherry sunburst Strat in a video from KEXP and I love that finish.

[@mrbobawesome]

@@awolsurf-TC I've wanted to get an offset Fender for a while, but haven't yet. What kind of JM do you have? I love the look/vibe of the J Mascis Squiers, but haven't played one.

[@awolsurf-TC]

@@mrbobawesome Ahhhhh, yes, you need one. So I started with a cheapie Squier lefty model, probably $350. It's not a terrible guitar, BUT...I just got a proper Jazzmaster American Pro or whatever it's called off Reverb. it's a great guitar, you can really feel the difference in your hand, makes the Squier feel like a toy almost. And yes, the sound and tone is markedly better. Now as for the Mascis, I probably would have picked up one in a heartbeat but as far as I know they don't make it lefty. But people I talk to love theirs. See if you can score a good deal on a Fender Jazzmaster online or whatever, you won't regret it. LOL the pandemic has brought like-minded guitar heads together online for lack of anything better to do!

[@mrbobawesome]

@@awolsurf-TC I keep an eye out, just haven't found the right deal yet. I'm watching the KEXP set now trying to figure out what amps Glitzy's using now. Something newer. She was using a pair if Hotrod Deluxes before.

[@gillart]

Sounds fantastic!

[@JakeLFC1000]

Saw you live in Llandudno supporting Manic Street Preachers, YOU WERE AMAZING

[@BenyCK]

I am so glad they are back to Europe this summer!

[@jaimeflor4181]

I forgot how awesome they are live! It always sounds like they have prerecorded tracks to accompany them.

[@jeremyredd7199]

[@MapleGenesis]

The Greatest Light is The Greatest Shade

[@JaegerDelta]

At the 97x Next Big Thing in St. Petersburg on the Dec. 1st she did just that.

[@18gunslinger]

They are awesome live...come out to summerfest this year to see them!

[@Mindphaser1]

Fantastic live performance!

[@abraxis20]

Just awesome!

[@LegLake]

Saw TJF at DeLuna Fest in Pensacola, probably one of the best live bands I have heard.

[@18gunslinger]

I first saw you guys at the snow show in milwaukee, keep up the good work!

[@jeanettescott2018]

Woooo, very exciting. Rocking. 💗💖 xxxxx

[@mikol58]

[@biiadickinson5943]

What about this band? It's amazing to hear so much when you're so happy when you're sad

[@TamaraJimbo]

So solid!!

[@antseatown]

Amazing

[@nick18313]

The last 2 minutes of Whirring just melted my face off.

[@uiruu]

THIS MADE MY WEEK

[@angrybeavers12]

YEEES!!!! JOY FORMiDABLE IS AMAZING!!!

[@wolfgangbrock551]

This is brilliant!

[@WLNUTS]

In the beginning it says "KZbin Presents" and two circles around it. It reminds me of the "Dollars" sign from Durarara :O

[@Jensonslife]

I'm in love with Ritzy

[@matt6777]

Just bought tickets for NYC, because I just saw this....

[@marcello26987]

simply perfect!!

[@11cylynt11]

Dakota Fanning has a million foot pedals. It sounds awesome! :)

[@VerdantJedi]

God, I love this band ^^

[@wolfboylikesmetal]

Sonic Youth, Joan Jett, Blood Red Shoes the list goes on

[@mikol58]

They really do...kick ass.

[@SynMusique]

gotta fall in love

[@Lodud2]

Great!

[@hartmyndsole]

She is my role model.

[@moeezS]

As soon as I saw the harp, I was like "hell yeah, The Whirring!" Noisy ending like Sonic Youth. Epic song.

[@mattstew92]

First ever time I've heard of this lot (where have I been?!) Looked them up after being announced as MUSE's support act & Wow!! Great sound. Anyone got the track names for these?

[@hectormontes7664]

Ritzy is sooooooooooo Bad Ass!!!

[@uiruu]

Liked, Favorited, then watched
