We Are Trees - Sunrise Sunset (Yours Truly Session)

[@JoshuaMayo]

I really wish this band would of kept making music. This song is magical even to this day.

[@rockycapizzi]

hey all. this is rocky formerly of we are trees. i realize you all have some burning questions from reading the comments section. 1. did we live in brooklyn? no, we all lived in virginia beach, va. josiah moved to brooklyn briefly, then moved back to norfolk. 2. are we trust fund kids? no. in fact josiah's dad is an optometrist, my parents own a small pest control and landscaping business, and james' parents had a chinese restaurant and he ended up moving back to taiwan with them. 3. why can't you figure out the chords? because james is using a different tuning and I totally forgot what it was. 4. are there lenses in my glasses? no, and i didn't get my prescription put in them until almost a year later because i was broke and living in our friend Robert's attic (which was really, really cold btw) 5. what are we up to now? josiah is a certified massage therapist and resides in norfolk with his girlfriend bianca. she's way cool and is head chef at toast. james is somewhere in taiwan I'm guessing. we don't talk. i live in a tiny apartment with my roommate melissa and her two adorable dachsunds. I'm a server and bartender at peck and pour and pasha mezze. josiah has his own project called ladada, and I have a project called bitchimightbe. l used to have a noise band called scoughs. that was super rad. i play guitar mostly nowadays. hope that clears up some of your questions! ❤

[@jalees5114]

What are you currently doing? Are you thinking of Joining any bands? Or meeting up with James anytime soon and getting the band back together!

[@rockycapizzi]

+Jalees Tamayo I'm already in a band called Bitchimightbe. Not really interested in talking to james; I'm apathetic about it really.

[@jalees5114]

+rocky capizzi Cool Band Name where can I find you guys

[@rockycapizzi]

+Jalees Tamayo we have a band page. m.facebook.com/btchimightbe/

[@jalees5114]

+rocky capizzi Thanks for telling me I'll be sure to check you out also I'm very sorry to hear that it very sad to hear also because I love We Are Trees and I'm heartbroken to know it ended on a bad note but thanks anyways I hope that I can hear you guys one more time in the future but it's not likely but I wish you good luck ;)

[@ashr451]

I've been coming back to this every few months since I was a teen in highschool, now I'm grown with an adult job and responsibilities but it always brings me back to how it felt hearing this song. Thank you guys, wherever you are in life now.

[@Fstop313]

I remember being a kid and thinking this was the biggest deal ever. Looking back, its even cooler than I remember. Im honestly shocked it didnt gain more attention than it did.

[@HandMadeSpider]

Almost 10 years and the same goosebumps like its the first time listening

[@dreamworld009]

Facts

[@patrickleach5058]

Remember buying the download of this ep years ago . Haven't listened to them in a while . Glad I'm back

[@kristinabeltran6363]

So good right?

[@Ezralasure]

Riiiightttt

[@elisiajenkins4420]

It always feels new to me.

[@Flourandflowers]

there's something about this particular performance that really captures me. ..humans making original, raw music without the load of commercial crap the industry comes up with.

[@Mynextstop]

they are the definition of lo-fi

[@Adilenelol]

From listening to this when I was 12 and now 26. This to me is still gold ✨

[@Nevillaa]

Same :-)

[@tnb8420]

I am Japanese. I have been listening to their music since I discovered them more than 10 years ago. I am probably one of the few fans in Japan. I still play their music almost every day as background music in my Tire shop. I would like to continue listening to their original sense of music in the future.

[@MorningstarEmpire]

I miss this band.

[@desjel2024]

THIS IS MY FAVORITE BAND EVER!!! I'm sooooo sad they broke up :(((((

[@annfashionspot]

listening in 2023. is one of my forever favorite songs.

[@_cali2971]

I still come back to this every now and then.

[@HandMadeSpider]

I loved they so much in my teens and until my early twenties Wish i could have the time and passion to find good music like this rn

[@davidcastellanos2492]

Here I am listening again 12 years later full of nostalgic daydreams, never living in the moment just in the passing memory of the past. I wish all you reading this peace, joy and happiness in this life and the next ✌🏽

[@totteringchatter]

I want them back :(

[@angeltrevi07]

I keep coming back to this song. It just encaptures a feeling that no other song I know can capture. Was the first song I learned on acoustic guitar❤

[@angeltrevi07]

Still come back🫂

[@rorycowieson5924]

This is the most hipster thing I've ever seen.

[@MasGlo96]

Rory Cowieson What about this? kzbin.info/www/bejne/n2K0nZhje9ebprs

[@weedtalk87]

+Pedro Jimenez My eyes and ears especially are now ruined! Thanks!

[@svtv_9615]

@@MasGlo96 I have been enlighted thank you!

[@Fundaxoxo]

This is the kind of music I fell in love with and not those charts-which-stay-on-number1-for-2-weeks...you know what I mean?? :) I can listen to that song every day, for yers. This is how you create a song.

[@Fundaxoxo]

I'm definetely not much of a hipster :D I like mainstream charts, but prefer alternative music and interprets who do music individually.

[@Bxrry]

Favorite band

[@Bxrry]

still a fav

[@TheMushiman]

I love this band so much. I am completely blown away by them each time I listen. It's just musical perfection.

[@traderjoas]

i still think about this video sometimes and its been three years

[@traderjoas]

four years

[@robertolulaks8823]

After all these years I'm still listening this band, they are my favourite. Always wonder what are they doing now, are they still making some music, but separately

[@REDSOXYOUARETHEONLY]

i think my heart is going to explode, this is so beautiful and amazing I feel like I can't handle it

[@BlueChaosEmerald]

God I miss this band

[@fufu8488]

much respect to musicians and what they do. thankyou all for making sounds into manageable feelings:)

[@makyo1974]

YOU ARE GREAT YOUNG BAND!!!!!!!!ABSOLUTELY!!!!!!!!!

[@juanpiescina6387]

What happened to them? Ive been coming back to this video for 3 yrs now and i figured they would get bigger..still amazing music though

[@Mikesalasporras]

Juan Piescina the most beautiful things in life are randomly momentanium

[@eepynao]

Juan Piescina facebook.com/pages/we-are-trees/158929008516?fref=ts They broke up, but James (singer) still makes music: facebook.com/jamesneee?fref=ts

[@eepynao]

+Fred Marquina I'm personally acquainted with them. I shared the page for the lead singer. The drummer has his own band: m.facebook.com/ladadaaaaa/ and we'll I don't know the girl well. They're all adults who've moved on with stuff. If you're curious about new music I'd check out Ladada as well as James Nee's page. He has uploads on there from Soundcloud, which is where he posts any new stuff, and wrote a lot.of material last year. He won't be uploading much new stuff for a while, probably. Source: I'm his girlfriend

[@eliasghribi3720]

+Fred Marquina there is literally no way they are making enough money from youtube views to survive

[@SamSalatorisRex]

+Juan Piescina James just uploaded a new song to his soundcloud 'Avalnche' it's amazing

[@RachelWaldorf]

just fantastic! It's bands like this that just inspire and make you realized how good music can be!

[@Xx1lver]

True mastery of music

[@teamedwardcullen670]

Please come to Atlanta. I know a few people who would love to see you guys.

[@Theoutcomer10]

My only wish is that they hooked the violin to an aux. Her part is sick.

[@ashleeraz09]

Still a classic for me- thanks for making beautiful music; I'll have to check out your new groups.

[@tonyherrera350]

I'll cry until you wake up... Beautiful... U.U

[@A_New_Yorker_Lost_In_Florida]

[@AngeDezsh]

Chords : Capo 4 C & F That's all that's used c: The D string is open at times. once you listen to the song, and watch this video, you'll be able to figure out the strumming pattern, etc. :)

[@Lemurs]

this will always be my favorite video

[@phillipnox123]

Watching Grizzly Bear videos and happened to stumble upon this. So glad. It's an amazing song.

[@w029jrsm10x]

[@ExDivaDixi]

Beautiful!

[@adaptive_andrew]

This song strikes so many emotions at once. I prefer this live version versus the studio, to be honest. So much more raw. And raw in the sense of pureness, not the gangster lingo.

[@illumiyokai]

My favorite song 😍

[@SweetSalt321]

I can't stop listening to this song ♥
