blackbird raum

[lildanny32]

so go on with your life....epic

[docmhc]

That's about the most awful thing I've ever heard!! They're not really playing together and they are shouting, not singing. Awful, just awful.

[MrDiceman9000]

Having the bass player play a simple single string washtub bass is limiting.

[KikeYopo]

Cool :)

[Quinz92]

THE FUCK I JUST WATCHED

[sexysudaka]

[SurReal554]

epic performance and song

[CestLeFromage]

[ShawnLFDY]

absolutely beautiful group

[FranzAndrew]

Best low-quality live recording ever, something I'd only expect from the best street musicians!

[TheWanderingPrimate]

Every band needs a singing saw.

[angiegus86]

Where are you guys from? I am in love!!!



[VaelVictus]

What I love is that these guys could be recorded anywhere and it would be album-quality.

[FiendStreak]

this is my favorite band ..

[SurReal554]

one day, this will all come down. one day this will all come crashing right down....

[soukupjosephdavid]

[irishzeppelin187]

The theremin makes this song 21323 times better.

[MicahJamesL]

Thats actually a saw that shes playing.

[DivineScum]

@MicahJamesL Do you know how she's getting that sound out of it? I'd really love to know.

[wesmarkusfeld]

@DivineScum ya she has a bow and bends the saw while moving the bow on the edge. also the bass is a washtub bass which is fucking awesome

[TheIdiotDisease]

I saw these guys at Seattle last year (I think) and I fell in love with them imediately. I love their music, these guys deserve way mroe recognition, for sure.

[faulkan99]

agreed bacardi... though your name is spelled wrong. these guys/girl have alot of tallent. what the hell is that girl playing though? and dude with the washboard gets WAY into it, lol.

[tlrtravis]

this band is such fucking garbage.

[doNug83]

@tlrtravis LMFAO!! U really have that much free time to comment on awesome bands u hate? sucks to be u fu c k ing loser. 

[krisitn022]

@tlrtravis yer an ass. glad you wasted yer time watching their video if you don't like them.

[apoopmunky]

This band deserves WAY more credit and recognition than they get.

[midnightrider245]

Got Willy and the Poorboys here, I'm about to hop a plane to santa cruz and hunt these guys down.

[Rottigator]

Just saw them last night at the WOW hall in Eugene. They're 100 times better now haha

[flwkid]

omg thats crazy horrible.

[wakerider232]

@flwkid

it's alright, not everyone has good taste in music. maybe some day you'll have some taste.

[joeyboulregard]

@flwkid get a life outside of surfing youtube and insulting bands you don't like. these people worked really hard on their music and a lot of people like it. if you don't, leave it alone.

[cumdumpsterSF]

The accordion, sexy.

[spaniard1895]

I fill my mouth up with air, honey in the hair

I fill my life up with time, asleep in the vine, whiskey and wine

Who makes the wind blow, I dont care, my eyes roll back in my head

Im just walking in circles I see the lines in chalk on the ground

One day this will all come down

Someday this will all come crashing right down

So go on with your life we will bring you down

COAL

[superdark]

This is one of their songs where I can't find the meaning in the lyrics. Does anybody have any idea?

[kozycrisis]

he escuchado mucha musica klezmer, pero entre tanta mezcla uno no alcanza a conocer todo.

si conocia algunos grupos gypsys, y nunca habia escuchado de blackbird raum, se puede hacer musica que salga del corazon y esa musica es la estoy escuchando precisamente en este video.

muchas gracias!, de veras me gusto mucho!!!

saludos desde chile.

[nightmarecinema33]

Visit the subrosa anarchist cafe in santa cruz and its likely you'll run into one of these fine fellows. They are very kind and down to earth people as well as awesome musicians.
