The Strypes - Late Show With David Letterman

[@davidaucoin7280]

Dave's genuine enthusiasm says it all. He joke before they played that their moms were picking them up after the show, then they played and he was amazed, This is one thing I loved about Dave, he appreciated great music performed well and loved a good rock band

[@keithcarass2529]

Letterman nearly pissed his pants best young live band around without a doubt

[@brendanbrendan1988]

If David had ever been to Cavan he'd be even more impressed how they managed to get there 😂

[@OlegElisovetchi]

Breath of fresh air!

[@TheMidgetpro]

I love the headbutt at the end.

[@stephenhensley5631]

Really reminds me of the early British scene .I'm 69 and these guys remind me of my bands when I was young .

[@64roo]

Its a Mod thing

[@GerryBolger]

I'd say when the audience saw them first they thought 'aww this will be adorable'. And then the boys blew everyone away.. The Strypes are going to be massive, mark my word.

During the 2010s, they spearheaded and encouraged a wave a young UK bands to explore non-Beatle classic Brit Invasion and R&B roots. e.g. The 45s kzbin.info/www/bejne/i4OlpYFrm5Z5jck

OMG i am so happy that i found this band they are amazing...

[@DooWopification]

They sound...and look - great!!

[@dandavis6191]

one of the great things about Letterman, he had a lot of great bands on during his run

[@mar24gel]

wow...amazing talent and good looking boys!..more power to you guys!!!

[@sergeantpepperish]

their sound has balls, not something you could say for many "rock" bands these days.

[@SunshineLuvsmusic]

THIS IS AWESOME... SO HAOPPY TO HEAR A BAND THAT ROCKS, IS YOUNG AND DRESSES COOL! I hope the very best for them. Buying the CD today! YAHHH~ ROCK ON~

[@russpoirier1645]

Here it is kids, proof of the hope for the enduring future of real rock music!

[@robertcubinelli4961]

Totally agree :)!!!

[@QueenFan12]

I've got some bad news for you then XD

[@manumakabak4900]

there 's hope, Maybe Rock and Roll is not dead yet. Thanks to this band. Very good young musicians

[@SuperFloyd35]

Great job boys! You guys look and sound absolute rock n' roll!

[@billbill5326]

Sad that The Strypes broke up. They put out three great albums.

[@XxAirocker08xX]

Amazing band this should be the new pop!

[@fourfriedchickens]

These guys are the tops!!

[@Rasmuth]

Their albums are so good.

[@epipd5712]

This band was just awesome..I saw this show when they were on. I fell in love..they know how to Rock and Roll and take it to another level! WOOT! Dave had good musical guest and i heard he handpicked his musical guests too.

[@rocknrollspartacus]

I wish I’d have got on The Strypes train a hell of a lot earlier!! Fahhhkk!!

[@MikeGMurphy]

Out fkn' standing!!!

[@MikeGMurphy]

I love this bands energy!

[@gianluca3624]

They just broke up. They posted it on their Instagram. Really, what a shame... Best of luck to these bright kids.

[@sttroy]

love the guitar player singing ....playing ...and chewing gum .....all at the same time .....lol epic....

[@musicfan6575]

These guys are the real deal!!

[@clownnookie]

Hopefully they'll stay together for at least a good ten albums. I'd like to see how they grow and evolve.

[@robertcubinelli4961]

If they don't transform into the new millenium One Direction, they're going places...otherwise they will fall into total oblivion by the 3rd album :)!!

[@alexgendry]

@@robertcubinelli4961 sorry guys

[@stephenhensley5631]

Me too !!!

[@jonathanhadley2555]

I think that they split up

[@clownnookie]

@@jonathanhadley2555 Yeeeah, I know, but I think three out of the four started a new band? Not sure which one bailed... or why.

[@r923tf]

This my first exposure to this band. My first impression is that these guys are just mod wannabe douches, but then they started playing. My mind is officially blown. THIS is good music.

[@dang2443]

Well you're a little late to the party cupcake, even two years ago. By this point they had ditched the mod look and sound. Shows what the fuck you know about mod. Which is nothing.

[@rocknrollspartacus]

💯💯💯

[@curiousnomad]

RIP The Strypes. Getting the look is one thing. Playing your ass off is a whole other thing, which they did.

[@padraig853]

That was legendary and iconic. Check out their version of Elvis Costello's 'Peace Love and Understanding' It will blow you away how good they are. Mindblowing talent at that age.

[@thom8406]

What it should be. Cheers man

[@adrianapin14]

THEY'RE AMAZING!

[@charlotteguo362]

it's like a rivival of true spirit

[@rocknrollspartacus]

Man I wish I really had found out about these guys earlier! I’m just getting into them now to find out they have split up, what a shame! This is music! The good thing is they are still young! Thank you Strypes for making good music again!!!!!!!

[@gmdn123]

Absolutely love them ❤️

[@martyyoung3611]

That was friggin' AWESOME!

Watching this back its like it isnt real..... Used to watch these guys in Sweeneys for a €5r every Tuesday...... A 5r.... I miss the Strypes. They were special.

I can’t quite decide who’s the most phenomenal here. Okay - I’m going for the drummer.

[@SlyBird777]

That's the REAL DEAL there. The Anti Biebers. Thought Dave was gonna shit himself.

[@LuisMedinaInformador]

[@eddybaby58]

Best band I've heard since Oasis

[@dadeo8957]

Nice! Very Nice!

[@jasonnord785]

They’re the Irish Beatles. I dig it.

[@asensibleyoungman2978]

They're more like Dr feelgood than the Beatles.

[@MrConnal]

i think they call this 'nailing it'. fucking outstanding

[@VinylCollectorJames]

OK, not ALL boy bands are lame, this rocked !

[@dtw_1995]

James Laubhan this is a rock and roll band mate, a far cry from what's now known as a "boy band"

I caught em live on their last tour. Amazing live band.

[@barneymiller5488]

@@10syncro Three of them have a new band. The Zen Arcade. 5 piece now. A bit more punk/new wave. Less blues. But the songwriting is even better.

whats the title of the song?

[@edugarcia9454]

What a Shame

[@moneefiction]

They're the next big movement since the beatles :D This live version is so much faster from the original, maybe they were nervous in front of letterman and went too fast haha :P

[@a_wise_young_man752]

Utter bullshit! They're just replicate the old rhythm and blues sound. Check out a band called Dr Feelgood. You'll see this is nothing new.

[@deaterk]

Wise_Young_Douchebag - If your takeaway from viewing this performance is that it's "Utter Bullshit" You clearly missed the memo... No one here is asserting that this is a 'new' sound my son. In point of fact, it is acknowledged to be a throwback. ...A respectful homage to the mid-60s British Invasion. Bands like the Yardbirds, (early) Kinks, the Animals and (early) Who. The point is that these guys are the anti-Bieber, the anti flavor of the month. Real human beings, playing guitars and drums with energy and enthusiasm, making real rock & roll.

[@hawkshawhawkins9273]

Kickin arse and takin names

This is what happens folks when your children find Kinks, Pretty Things, and Dr Feelgood records in your collection instead of Duran Duran or some other gormless swill .

yes

[@user-cs7fz3jm1i]

What this song？

[@10syncro]

Artist: The Strypes Album: Snapshot Released: 2013 Such a tight jam. So real Rock n Roll ain't dead. You just need to look for it.

[@user-cs7fz3jm1i]

10syncro Thank you!! This song is very cool!!

[@MarkI66699]

Shame these split. Drummer and bassist made that band without a doubt.

[@barneymiller5488]

Those two have a new band. The Zen Arcade. Look 'em up. Almost better in way. More 'classic' less 'retro', if that makes any sense.

[@HeidiChiao]

Aaaaaaaaaah fun. BOOM! :D I hope Evan's hands are getting a rest after all the touring and TV. Had to cringe in pain for him when I read in Rolling Stone how trashed his hands were leading up to this appearance. :(
