The Twilight Sad - Full Performance (Live on KEXP)

[@addse75]

I wished more people would appreciate music from bands like Twilight Sad. It breaks my heart to hear they struggle so much to live from their beautiful art.

[@danfalvey6292]

This Band is fantastic it breaks my heart as well to see a band with such raw emotional talent struggle.

[@luckveloso7025]

Agree. I love this band, cheers from RIO!

[@Steve-lt1op]

Keeps it real, also see british sea power.

[@jazmin6031]

I didn't know. They are so great

[@StatsGod]

They're huge in Scotland, and even the UK. They're opening for the Cure ... Robert Smith has been a supporter. I was at a packed show at Barrowlands last week ...

[@cffalconer]

They have supported The Cure for a good while, so Robert Smith likes them, there were excellent at the Hydro in Scotland great band need to see more of them ❤️👍

[@gordonhunter640]

there amazing seen them in glasgow not long ago stripped back set celtic connections festival brilliant gig

[@inghell]

In my opinion, the twilight sad are the modern day joy division and certainly deserve a lot more attention than they get.

[@madalinaion1349]

Apart from the fact that their music is sublime, and they are amazing musicians and songwriters, God I love how his accent shines through every note. So happy to see artists keep their natural accents.

[@suesutton9226]

Me too , it's rather unusual and very endearing!

[@JZikovsky]

Agree 100%, I feel it makes it feel more authentic

[@drendansmada]

Much love to my Scottish heritage

[@robertkok4642]

Just saw them open for The Cure last weekend! So glad that I got to witness their talent live. Will definitely recommend them to friends.

[@yusufronco]

this band has made me cry more than any other band.

[@timdempsey32]

Thus they are aptly named. For me it is Frightened Rabbit.

[@michaelleal3866]

Being from Texas, I’ve come to realization im more than likely gonna have to go to the twilight sad instead of them coming to me. They’re worth every mile. Everytime I have glass of whiskey I put this on and just submerge myself in this. Perfect in my book. ❤️

[@hibiki88]

They’re opening for The Cure. Hitting the major cities. Go see them!

[@annegarcia7427]

I love the Twilight Sad so so much! Thank you to The Cure for introducing this AMAZING & BEAUTIFUL bad to my world!!🖤🖤🖤I was fortunate enough to see 4 shows on this last tour with The Cure in 2023! They floored me every time. I’ll forever be a fan!

[@benjaminstearns7104]

Criminally under appreciated

[@tavo8756]

Who the hell doesn't like The Twilight Sad?

[@ClockwiseCat]

They are okay. Not mind blowing. Maybe they will grow on me. They need to change their name, but I realize that could sound petty.

[@simandr]

The interview was refreshingly honest and down to earth, especially the bit about Scott. Love love love these guys, can't wait to see them next summer with The Cure and Mogwai in Glasgow!

[@melanielatz7073]

Frightened Rabbit Necklace... Great, now I´m double sad

[@botanicalbird93]

Absolutely my new favorite band! I wish I would have discovered them before this week. I hope they tour the states again. James Graham's voice is tapped into other worlds. ❤

[@atfgarage9459]

He performs with such conviction and emotion. How is this band still struggling? They should be multi millionaires, touring around the world. Reminds me of Alice In Chains.

[@themodularmodular]

DIfferent times, man.. back then ppl really bought records that would support artists financially. Nowadays there's KZbin, Spotify and some other media so ppl aren't as hungry as it was anymore. Touring can only help so much

[@RockSchooled]

Alice In Chains? How? More like New Order or Interpol.

[@jameskamlowsky9906]

Not like Alice in Chains at all...

[@crislee4057]

@@RockSchooled i think he was referring to the raw talent but the general lack of major success

[@matzu_darko]

I am from Mexico City, and I saw The Twilight Sad opening for The Cure , It is definitely one of my favorite bands, its lyrics are very deep and beautiful. Also the drums and guitars are so intense. I just love their music and i know they will be a considered as a cult band.

[@cherryswann7826]

Seen them live with the Cure few months back. Love them. Fan forever ! Listen to them daily. Love their music❤ puts me in a dream.🤗

[@christianlesurfmusic]

I saw these guys support Mogwai back in November and when they performed their cover of Keep Yourself Warm by Frightened Rabbit, I fell in love with them! They do me proud!

[@robm6009]

If this band had come out in 1980 they would be icons. They just came out too late to be appreciated. I have heard them twice live and they are amazing.

[@waverleyk5691]

They are fantastic. Seeing James wear that necklace for Scott Hutchison and FR is so amazing.

[@joshuarobbins9296]

Favorite band of all time. Come back to LA

[@brucifer1965]

I had never heard of this band until I saw them open for The Cure, and I am hooked. Love this band and the feel of their music. Cheers.

[@ning1989]

Still the most relevant band I've seen in the last 20yrs.

[@TevTate]

James actually said in 2015 in Ireland, that KEXP was great (I'm in Ireland, from Seattle)!

[@rockmusick]

This is the first time I've heard them in my life, I'll see them together with The Cure in May, they sound great, I can't wait

[@chantalfinn6173]

Same 😊

[@joujuka23]

Same! I have never heard of them but really like them. Will be seeing them with The Cure in May in Mountain View CA

[@suesutton9226]

As soon as iheard these guys I went online and ordered some music from them - have 1 album.and 2 cds so far ❤

[@rogerwebb2761]

Saw these fellas last night supporting the Cure in Boston. First time I'd heard them and thought they were brilliant. So glad to be able to see them live. Instantly a fan. Thank you.

[@oliverrosner6940]

Greetings from Germany! Love KEXP and Love The Twilight Sad even more!

[@mrpinguimninja]

I like The Twilight Sad even more after seeing how emotional James got when talking about Frightened Rabbit. It's a very earnest way to show oneself, and it's incredible

[@averyparkway679]

I was wishing for not only new twilight sad, but for them to make an appearance on here. My Christmas present I guess.

[@lubarr]

been a fan ever since 2007

[@SandraVelasquez-k8z]

His explanation of playing KYW for all the lonely FR fans out there is so touching. Despite how much it must hurt him, still thinking about fans and carrying on Scott's legacy. Not to mention his own incredible band TTS.

WHAT IVE BEEN SAYIN. Remember some of their really early live performances. I enjoy it looking back, but some of it was REALLLL rough. Some of was just bad mixing though if I remember correctly. The level of growth is insane

Excellent groupe Ils ont fait la premier partie de The Cure (Nov 2022), j ai été agréablement surpris de le découvrir; c'est un mélange de son à l Interpol, voix un peu à la placebo et artistique et scénaristiquement semblable à Joy Division.
