I already loved all these songs, but there's something refreshing about hearing them like this, live with acoustic guitars. And with buckets.

[@connfyoozed]

I get the feeling that you could hand Stella a can of soup and a bag of frozen peas, and she would still make them sound fantastic.

[@martinet1985]

Haha musical McGyver 😀

[@annamonteiro4400]

So true, Stella is awesome

[@Elgrandes12t]

So glad others see that. Amazing drummer.

[@puscifer10000]

That's funny but actually true

[@ricknelson99]

She could play a garbage can with some plastic straws on NPR's Tiny Desk Concerts and sound amazing...

[@bass5445]

Killer bass player

[@arynengle]

I just love Jenny's (bass player) energy she's brilliant and hot, been listening for several years, keep it up warpaint!

[@MrFeyerwire]

Their lead singer is the textbook definition of a Siren, her voice alone could drive men to jump into the swirling sea.

[@bobrossantichrisst]

I agree! But wairosint has multiple members who sing

[@NatCreatures]

Hahaha the funniest comment 😂😂

[@RTYB]

Simp

[@shantrannyduck]

typing as i jump :]

[@ConchaDel]

and women

[@Fridasofie]

The basslines are so incredibly good!

[@TheMiccamuk]

+bookloaf Awesome Jenny Lee - that bassline in undertow with the slurry chords love it

[@vicentehernandez2280]

i love the little improvisation at the end of love is to die

[@confirmationbias760]

Wow. These acoustic versions showed me a complexity in this music that I hadn't noticed before. Yay.

[@terraytia]

I'm in love. With all of them. Yes, I know, it's impossible. But true.

[@Vinilemoane]

+Jakub Libner It's totally possible, man.

[@brunofernandes1463]

+Jakub Libner It's totally possible².

[@Mmmalina6]

+Jakub Libner It is ;'D I am too haha

[@Mast3rBruc31]

+Jakub Libner Get in line, buddy!

[@puisakura]

+Jakub Libner I love all of them too. They are so unique in their own ways.

[@wholenewmess]

So in love with this acoustic-set! I haven't seen one performance by Warpaint that wasn't gorgeous. Such lovely gals, and I just adore them all! Literally, every show they do, leaves me speechless all the way through. This album still has to be my most favorite of the year. I'm pretty damn sure I've listened to it every day since it came out. Oh boy, I'm a Warpaint addict!

[@billgoesfirst9960]

Jake Bliss I've been a Warpaint addict every day for almost seven years now. i know exactly how you feel. Two years since this album dropped and still never gets old. this time Heads Up has been in constant rotation every day.

[@fireblazer6661]

Love this band! So glad to hear there's a new album coming out in May 2022 !!

[@TrickOrRetreat]

really ? checking as we don´t speak through time

[@k-m___]

their voices live are perfect

[@changeyabumlife]

I am honestly in love with these girls. such haunting and honest music, with that groovy back beat. I can't get enough.

[@JuanRamirez-ri6hs]

Well, they all play pretty good! they harmonize fantastic with their voices and it's so cool how there's a part "C" in their songs where the rythym changes. They are so good because they have their "own" thing when you listen to them. Great

[@asec-ambar9211]

2020 and im still watching this

[@jasonst5307]

love the bassist , the way she plays and the groove she makes!! awesome ....

[@RichardL-W]

. . . . . . Spanish flamenco influence . . Touch . .

[@MsBob314]

I can't speak enough of this band. I am officially addicted. Killler asymmetrical arrangements, always changing, sexy, bombing basslines, can't say enough!!!!! Did I mention killer basslines? She plays way up in the register and it just cuts through the mix! I LOVE the basslines!!!! Great guitar riffs!!! "Keep it Healthy' has a 5/4 16/4 time signature, maybe an 21/4 as a whole, but no specific metric reference other than the killer guitar riff that in it's own Zeppelinesque way says "I'm here"! Maybe 5/4, 8/4, 8/4. Doesn't matter. They weren't thinking that. They just F%#@ing played it!!!! Wow!

[@bonmot7850]

I woulda guessed 17/8 in places. It is really weird. Sometimes the bass and drums are barely tied together.

[@MsBob314]

Yes, very true!

[@msalperen1]

Why didn't you say anything about the basslines?

[@MsBob314]

@@msalperen1 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@whatever.adomaite]

watching them perform live is like watching a movie, can't take my eyes off!

[@nickfromCO]

"hi this is DJ David Spade..thanks for tuning into KEXP, we have Warpaint in the Live Room today..."

[@RingOfRae]

Just discovering KEXP... You guys have excellent taste. Coming off age, very happy discovering what the new generation has to offer....

[@DIGITAL7Media]

welcome...there's just....soooo much to take in.....

[@roney76]

Possibly one of the best performances I`ve found for Warpaint on KZbin!!

[@glennbergevin7726]

I've been a big fan for five or so years, but just seeing this for the first time. Holy shit what a performance - their album production style is usually pretty high, studio rich, lots of layers... To strip these songs down like this is incredible.

[@myboythom]

Cant believe ive only just found this, having been a fan many moons. KEXP had them do a most beautiful set of their new album, 'radiate like this' which I have been listening to muchos muchos recently. They're bloody brillo x

[@georgeb9783]

I had the same set of drums but I threw it away after I had the house painted!

[@thomasmantellwilliam]

Are you named after the lake?

[@georgeb9783]

Paisley Tom You got it.It sounds funny and I like it.

[@MrStylesp9]

Haha it's because of comments like this that I haven't given up on reading KZbin comments yet

[@AndiMichael]

i have that set of drums too, but in the laundry room, and i put my dirty clothes in it

[@FA8T]

Almost sums up why I love this band soo much, using Paint-Tubs as Drums. I think considering their Band-Name they should start incorporating other paint-related objects into their music. Brushes next week……

[@YREHCorp]

- "How is everybody feeling?" - "Well rested!/Tired!"

[@Snapdragontank]

its all about the bass! yes please

[@rjfleming3587]

Love this band! They have come so far, OMG their music is so great!!

[@javiertrevino5535]

they're great. I love all the subtlety and nuance in their dreamy indie rock songs. I love all their albums. They're amazing

[@caspianandthegoodtim]

damn "keep it healthy" is a solid song

[@HUMANNEQUIN66]

+Caspian Christiansen agree

[@martinet1985]

yep it's rad.

[@NeusCasanovaVico]

This is one of the most amazing and beautiful acoustic live I've ever seen

[@NattyTrugs]

Thank-you KEXP and the KZbin algorithm, I love to discover talented bands. The backing vocals in Love is to Die really add a depth to the atmosphere.

[@verminj]

KIH is so beautiful acoustic. Emily's vocals are so light, and beautiful. Stella is killing it bucket style.

[@blocpartyrocker]

emily kokal is a dream

[@hectorcastillotorres9313]

Love you all beautiful fairies.

[@elettramorelli6500]

I totally love all of them!

[@erilenferrer]

One of my favorite bands, they inspire me a lot.. I LOVE YOU WARPAINT!! \m/

[@TheAntoine350]

KEXP Thanks for another great session! Just discovered these girls and I love their sound! :)

[@delphinoaleon6436]

I think this is the best music I have ever heard. I'm pretty sure all 4 of these ladies are alien goddesses from another planet

[@alejandrorios1875]

simple, I am in love with them, they are very talented girls!

[@derris]

Amazing performance, amazing women. Thank you !

[@mariopineda1457]

omg, freaking awesome musicians! Stella i still love you, and always will.

[@radkakopecka]

So beautiful.

[@08bourquem]

beautiful people

[@MartinGibson500]

I've been following this band ever since I saw them live (recorded..see my channel) at the Big Chill Festival in England a few years ago. Since then they have matured into a truly fine band. I'm so pleased to see they have stayed together, great musicians and wonderful vocal harmonies. Stick at it girls...you are amazing!!

[@fabiolapichardo6095]

I got this stupid smile on my face after I have seen this performance!!! Love it!!!!

[@kassavacia]

i love them so madly

[@violetsun9]

I was watching PJ Harvey videos and this band came up as a suggestion. Thanks for suggesting! :-D

[@al-mayda]

So stoked to watch them next month here in Rio de Janeiro!!

[@kevinryd]

Man what a band.. And Stella is such a fuckin talented drummer.

[@jesenzima2012]

Stella is fuckin hot girll

[@Alycanj]

I so love these ladies..............................................xo

[@deazzyrorie1991]

I love this song.

[@nicktaylor5264]

Every year (for years), every shroom season I come back and get hooked one this again. Love it. Today I bought a bass and came back just to learn to play bass like she does.

[@Sat_anas_]

I remember your myspace, and the 5 songs you picked as your portfolio. It was a whole new world to me in my adolescence. I am glad you are still there, going on.

[@AvenidadeLaPaz]

[@pinkjesus214]

[@susisonrei1111]

[@anasofia4815]

Love is to DANCE!! ❤

[@johnnyeverest9756]

Alongside Dinosaur Jr. my favourite performance in KEXP You know, they all got sense of melody that "faded away" quickly in the corners of mind, and when you hear it, sometimes you can get feeling, that all those sounds flying around somewere in atmosphere, and they got skills to catch it know what i mean ?

[@threehundredwords]

Wow, not sure what I was expecting but not this.Very nice. Honest and vulnerable sound.

[@xxxpunkgirlpodridaxx]

LAS AMO!!
