[myADVOCATO]

[JeZZy595]

[adaminky]

Yes that is David Ingram.  Good eyes!

[carnut476]

Yankee fucks tickle me pink

[livelovelaugher]

Empujon - love them!!!!

[Cawake27]

[ackeen94]

downtown louisville skatepark... one of the greatest cities around

[AuroraBlue76]

This is sooo one of my go to songs when I want to feel lifted a little bit higher in my life :)

[thelastmike]

For something like this - a small intimate concert - the names of the all the players should be included in the information area.

I thought the violin player was great.

But I have no idea who she is.

[FCMahgeetah]

@thelastmike it was probably Phoebe Hunt!

[UkraineTrainWreck]

Is that David Ingram in the video??

[McNChz]

Those guys are getting their suits all dirty!!!

[Loveisallyouneed73]

JUST SAW HIM IN CONCERT!! He did an amazing job, and this song was really, really great. I'm serious when I say you should all go see him- he's beautiful!! I told him that. Because men can be beautiful! Thanks Ben Sollee. <3

[doubledftw]

5 people are complete idiots

[R0nard]

heard this a few years ago and it still puts warmth in my heart. music at it's finest

[Mastershaker1]

I met him.

I told him I loved him.

[hippietoadable]

@Mastershaker1 Awesome! if you happen to meet him again, tell him Eva also loves him. haha ;)

[guifid71]

This guy was going to play at a local concert in Louisville that had some folk musicians from Kentucky that me and my dad were playing at, and I was probably going to see him up close and talk to him or something. BUT NO! A fucking volcano has to go off in like Iceland or some shit and stop flights from coming in to America. -_-

[gabehampton]

He is amazing, and he goes on Bike Tours. Lugs around his Cello in a pull cart on the back of it. He rode from Lexington to Bonnaroo and played a line of gigs on the way on a bike and then played Bonnaroo, and this Winter he toured the South East of the US and went into Florida on a bike playing shows along the way.

He is amazing musically.

[mshizzlzz]

@gabehampton like a bicycle? or a motorbike?

[gabehampton]

@mshizzlzz A bicycle with a trailer hitched to the back to carry his cello.

[symphonicrevolution]

love the snippet of the fourth Bach suite at the beginning of this... so good.

[MsNatibug]

can we really believe that this is a cello? he's amazing.

[birdstuckinchimney]

That sounds like the dolcit tones of Bela Fleck on the banjo...??? Anyone know???

[atm1357]

@birdstuckinchimney it has to be. they were in the sparrow quartet together. and maybe jeff coffin on soprano sax? no one else plays banjo like that.

[bartoknight]

What a joy to watch this video. Ben Sollee has a voice from Kentucky's back hills and a rhythm that makes my blood dance. LOVE IT! He is only better live.

[earthday47]

If I could like this 1000 times I would.

[RockaRecord]

holy shit, my ears aren't bleeding from overlapping synths or a shitty bass.

WHAT SWEET HEAVEN IS TIHS?

[alienworkshopsk8er50]

its a skate park ur not suposed 2 dance there

[MR24VDC]

@alienworkshopsk8er50 you should put up a sign saying no dancing. I just can't stand when people abuse a public space for something like dancing. Its not like folks that skate have ever done that.

[alienworkshopsk8er50]

@MR24VDC i no

[rwalker811]

@MR24VDC spot on, spot on

[senoritacinque]

love this quite a bit, but i do wonder what it would be like without the horn...

[muchtlive]

[bimmerman325i]

Louisville Skatepark. Nice choice

[luevas]

[dubbaCallday]

[wearejones]

@dubbaCallday weak - leave the guy alone.

[eritt53]

Saw you at Red Light Cafe in ATL GA. we chatted. Great ENTIRE cd. How's your family? Peace and . . . Cello!

[Estebantron]

Cellos are cool

[Beachbabe993]

I saw him on jimmy kimmel too!!! lool cudn't change the channel....his music is awesome =)

[mikclink]

Saw him on Kimmel too. Excellent show all around. It sucks the performance isn't on here, the Jimmy Kimmel channel or jimmy Kimmel website.

[tacitus2244]

I got turned on to him after seeing on Kimmel too. How long has this guy been playing for? He has such a great voice and a unique style I'm surprised that I haven't heard of him.

[deadflagbluesxxx]

You've probably already heard of Andrew Bird, but in case you haven't, I think you'd be into it if this is the type of music you dig.

[creativehandsnc]

I agree, I enjoy Ben's and Andrew Bird's music.

[darkkkonyx]

I saw this dude on Jimmy Kimmel live, never expected that voice out such a nerdy looking kid. Amazing! Made me a fan!

[atrybus]

WHY isn't this man more well known?! Where's his Grammy Award?

[photonsoup]

Agreed

[tonytheyoshi]

Hey Ben: We just saw you at 3rd and Lindsley in Nashville Sunday night. I told you "your voice took me to another place" and you hugged me and met my 14 year old son (cellist) who couldn't even talk he was so in awe of your talent. Just wanted to say thanks so much for being an inspiration for my son and his girlfriend, they now see the cello in a whole different light. I'm sending your name and youtube info to my whole family so we all can enjoy your music. Tracy from Hendersonville, TN

[KickArseToothbrush]

Why is he not bigger than he is?

[lisaeaster]

I love this song. I play it over and over on my ipod. Ben, you have such a sexy voice. From a Louisville native who truly appreciates your talent.

[stetlz02]

Ben your solo tonight at Georgia Tech's Ferst Center was AMAAZZZZZZZZZZINGGGGGG!!! It is very rare to hear an applause like that after a performance. You deserved every bit of it. Thanks for the beautiful music. I can't wait to see you on Nov 6th.

[MrOffshore]

Ben, I saw you perform when I was at the Jimmy Kimmel Live taping...exceptional to say the least...you were the highlight of the night...let me know if you're ever in the South Bend, Indiana (or Chicago) would love to bring my wife to a concert of yours, I told her you were absolutely amazing!! Thanks for opening my eyes up to the beauty of your cello.

[bralexly]
