Punch Brothers Blind Leaving

[cranie4]

This is Acoustic Progressive Bluegrass. I don't know how else to describe what Chris Thile writes and performs. Genius composer and ubergenius player (with all due respect to the talent of the Punch Brothers and the Watkins Family).

[ryanbstory]

this band has the most brilliant, beautiful, intelligent, complex, original compositions I have ever heard.

[jbudz1977]

I'm not digging the sound quality of the 1 microphone recording technique.

[Giantrobokc]

Good Stuff ! I caught them on Letterman with Steve Martin and have been a fan ever since.

[VeryOldTom]

@Giantrobokc so did i! i wasnt so impressed by that song though, but i still somehow knew that these guys were special. i like the voice and the instrumentation a lot, theres so much emotion to it.

Apparently 2 people dislike music

[aquaboy386]

Doesn't look like Chris has had much sleep...

[PalmyBruce]

Beautiful, thanks for posting it, messages or not.

[jdb8507]

Nickel Creek was great but I think this, overall, is a group of more talented musicians. Different genres, so it's hard to say really. I am truly impressed with them.

[deutschbag1000]

They're good but i miss nickelcreek

[RCoveyAZ]

@deutschbag1000 Agreed, They're good... But Chris will never be known as part of "The Punch Brothers" He'll always be known for his part in Nickel Creek.

Saw them in Wilmington NC thursday night these guys are great,have seen a lot of musicians in my 40+ years they left me feeling in awe of their talent

[Wallace540]

I am seeing them tonight! Amazing stuff.

[narrml]

I'm sorry, but whoever had the brilliant idea to string ads, texts, and so forth all over this particular and excellent music is a fool. Wake up.

[Paul2000]

well they have Bach in car commercials, same deal

[jayhawk333]

CANT HEAR THE BASS

[missiworld]

I love this beyond all reason. Chris Thile fan for life, along with whatever band he's in.

[deingeist]

I think they're amazing. It doesn't surprise me that he doesn't look at the mandolin though. There are many musicians who don't have the option. Now show me a blind representational painter and I'll be impressed ; )

[movecase]

Chris Thile doesn't even look at the mandolin when he's playing. He just knows where he's going with his hands.

[pyrofiliac]

that's generally what you do when you play an instrument

[movecase]

Zing! Score one for the Pyroman! Isn't talking down to people so fun? Well done.

[celticjammin101]

This is by far the most talented acoustic band there is

[iranarama]

@celticjammin101

I just discovered them, and love them...and they cover the Strokes haha.

I like Little Joy better as an "acoustic" band (the drummer from the Strokes is in Little Joy...great little band, worth checking out :)

[kuklaUK]

I love these guys. World class.

[CatlyCat]

These Guys are killer musicians. I saw there in in Greenville, SC when they were still how to grown a woman. I would love to see them again. They put on a killer show.

[mikeylikesit182]

hey im from gville, where did you see them, i saw them at the peace center last time they came through

[CatlyCat]

I saw them at the Handlebar. I really wanted to go see them at the Peace center here recently when they came through but I didn't get a chance. I really enjoyed them at the Handlebar b/c it was such a close setting.

[thechurchsisters]

i can tell the guitar player likes the music

[bcar1414]

Saw them last night around Chicago. Truly some of the best musicians you'll ever see. Tight, tight band.

[biggirldances]

OMG! I found them on itunes! Best group EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Im a HUGE fan of Nickel Creek. I LOVE bluegrass and jazz music and this is both of those genres combined!!! PERFECT FOR ME!!!!!! :D <3

[biggirldances]

[marifullofgrace]

[biggirldances]
