Vulfpeck should do a "Only Towns" tour. Setlist is only Dean, Hero and Lonely Town. No cities on the tour schedule. ONLY TOWNS.

YES.

[@brunoromiti7708]

To pad the setlist, they could cover Funky Town , New Kid in Town, and The Boys are Back in Town.

It's weird cause you can hear his voice. Guess he recorded it alone.

Dylan Walsh actually if you look carefully you can see him a few times in the vid

Thomas Davis - you sure? I just see a disembodied head and a guitar. The head has a great voice though.

[@ChrisKoelsch]

Getting a real good Beatles vibe from this one

[@squigfried]

Sergeant Stratton's Lonely Town's Funk Band

[@sk8brdngroxx]

@@squigfried Very much so, especially with the piano lick at the beginning. It's from "Nothing from Nothing" by Billy Preston, who played keys with the Beatles at the end of their tenure.

[@andrewwolff1616]

No doubt Chris Koelsch! Never thought i'd hear something like this from the Vulf...... bit of Freddie M in there as well. Perhaps inspired by recent film?

[@amwvb]

The end bit (2:50-2:55) is really similar to the end of 'I Will'.

[@Fefe8502]

Yep - There are also hints of 'Michelle, ma belle' and 'And I Love Her' around the 1:42 bridge. And the vocal harmonies really catch that Beatles feel. Love it !

[@JoelDude94]

Fun having that "Billy Preston /// Nothing From Nothing" intro there! I just discovered that track last week, freaky hearing it pop up here too.

[@samiragisiger6445]

I knew it sounds familiar! Thanks man!

[@mylittlepocky7122]

This song is so satisfying, The perfect melody, perfect chord changes, perfect blues/jazzie notes (thanks the piano !) Perfect bridge Perfect lyrics You make my days better

[@MrDaxfog]

We need to make a group call "Woody's sparrows" or something like that. This guy deserves more attention from every fan, old or new. Is the soul of the band

[@wadball]

As long as we don't end up like the "sparrows" from GoT, count me in!

This video is so great and creative. I also really like the simple aesthetics. I like how they used the black and white stripes, where Theo almost blends in with the couch, and bass man has stripes and is so close to the piano that it compliments and matches…and piano man has those grey stripes in his hoodie. Those are such little details, but are creative details that add so much to the fun of this video! You guys are cool. 😎

The irony is that the exact shortness of the song is what keeps you coming back. Look at the Beatles. So many short songs. Theo was just talking about this last month, about how Jack Stratton pretty much forces all the songs to be under 3:30. Theo writes songs with many different verses and then trims them down accordingly
