[slayergone]

wonderful! "The NoMad'Steps is on UTUBE it's a French FOLK ,Peace...

[chopinesprit]

che, que bien suena este grupo

[Arjan3975]

Too bad the discussion is about a text on a t-shirt and someone's spelling. Just listen to this great music. Maybe people should listen and talk with their eyes closed, so they're not distracted by looks and appearances.

John Lennon once sang: Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding's all you see.

[blindfingers1]

Kitty9tales - You're a bit daft but you are right about one thing, "Americans" (U.S. Americans) can be quite stupid! I'm American too...from Canada! "WTF" you say? America includes everything from Cape Horn to Greenland and those who live therein are Americans! So the next time you smugly refer to yourself as American meaning you're from the USA, you can spare yourself the embarrassment of looking a bit stupid. You're not as exclusive as you think!

[kitty9tales]

@blindfingers1 the term for you is NOrth Americans. and they still prove they ain't the smartest folk

[zineb32]

traduccion al español please

[Jaded1496]

I love Ben Harper but this sounds like churchy shit

[RockArtss]

Amazing in my playlist Now

[ericartzt]

Joseph Arthur, God bless you. You've always helped me connect back to the warm beckoning embrace of the kingdom.

[siraphiqu3]

im sorry im asking stupid question, is that sitar or what. tht gitar-like thing on his lap? haha

[kouax]

@siraphiqu3 it's called a lap guitar, Ben Harper has played this kind of gutiar for ages

[BlackAppendix]

@siraphiqu3 Not a sitar. It's literally called a Lap-guitar.

[131Clem]

Yeah… I cannot help but think that the violinist is the only one who deserves appraise… C'mon Ben Harper! You used to do much better stuff than this!!

[thedynamichispanic]

I would do dirty things to that violinist.

[Molekulica]

The last verse may be simple and obvious, but sometimes we forget that we are rulers of our own lives.

Btw. violin is amazing!

[TheSupaplum]

I love Dhani's guitar!

[dearnewoikkin]

Greg, because this is just one set out of a full live studio show... So she gets recognized in another set on another one of the videos posted by the same person... Watch them all first.

[shire4u]

all of them are amazing !

[1956pepper]

Jessy Greene!!!

[mantra453]

Her shirt says "play more think less"

[veronichina09]

Fistful of Mercy annunciano il primo tour europeo

Joseph Arthur, Ben Harper e Dhani Harrison si esibiranno il 09/12 all' ALCATRAZ

[TwoTones]

Am I the only one who doesn't dig this song? It's a bit cheesy, the musicianship isn't bad but it's not GREAT, it's more along the lines of a campfire jam than a group of amazing artists making amazing things.

[daniegyrl69]

i saw jessy with the foo fighters 2 years ago! she is amazing!

[CalogeroMira]

I did not know Ben Harper had this group. Non sapevo che Ben Harper avesse questo gruppo. Suona bene la chitarra.

[sigmundo66]

on jessy's shirt is written: play more - think less! :)

awesome video!

[lezpol4168]

@robmatlivingstone fuck you

[robmatlivingstone]

Boring. Depressing. Music for losers.

[telecaster24]

no drums or bass, would be nice ...but not effective here not needed, SUPERB work from a musical point of view. Voices and Harmony nice... GREAT STUFF, If you can do better get it on fuggers.. THIS SONG IS GREAT LIKE MY OPINION...

[DORtOgo]

Pure love !!! <3 

[tonifmelo]

Very very cool!!

[DrMystic1972]

Inspiring.....



[Johncroce1]

A style much like Crosby,Stills ,Nash, They will go far !

[JujuForTheWin]

Oh boy, i'll seriously consider buying this!

[kitty9tales]

Loved that Dhani wore a thenewno2 shirt. but the fiddle player's shirt beconing us to think less? America is stupid enough as it is

[kexpradio]

@kitty9tales, perhaps check your spelling before calling other people stupid!

[kitty9tales]

@kexpradio show me some misspelled words. I'm not seeing them

[kexpradio]

@kitty9tales,... "beconing" ???

[kitty9tales]

@kexpradio yep. the k didn't get hit hard enough. it was typed. others have pointed it out. hey, if people want to go through life not thinking then let them be dumb. I deal with it way to much and am through helping them out.

[kexpradio]

@kitty9tales, we only point that out because you're calling an entire country stupid, which is, frankly, quite stupid. And it's "too", not "to". Just sayin'.

[9miniclip]

@kexpradio  She's not sayin'...just sayin'.... :D (I'm with you sweetheart!)

[tension33]

@kexpradio booo-urns

[Wolftron9733]

@kitty9tales it's a shirt. calm down.

[kitty9tales]

@Wolftron9733 I'm a nerd. t-shirts with words sometimes stir our emotions

[EmmEche]

@kitty9tales

Look again..it says "----" more, Think Less...I can't quite make out the word above the word "more"..maybe you can.

[BabyPangea]

@kitty9tales and perhaps she is using sarcasm to make people think...

[kitty9tales]

@BabyPangea Not a bad thought. I'm around too many people that don't or can't think and seem proud of it

[BabyPangea]

@kitty9tales and perhaps she is using sarcasm to make people think...i would give her more credit than that!!

btw...i am going to take up violin lessons...and i think in this case it ought to be referred to as a violin, not a fiddle...

[BabyPangea]

@kitty9tales or maybe she is just trying to use sarcasm to make people think...I would give her more credit than that!! And in this case I'd refer to it as a violin, not a fiddle...

btw..I am taking up violin after seeing this...that's what's missing!! What a beautiful and enchanting instrument right!!

[ledzep129]

@kitty9tales It says "Play more, think less."

[dearnewoikkin]

@kitty9tales If you would actually watch the other videos and not just this one... You would hear them talk about her shirt and that it says "play more, think less" for MUSIC...

[EnnacosCamera]

@kitty9tales I believe it says, Love more, think less, which a lot of people could use :)

[Trykhome]

@kitty9tales  Music....Video...OT A FASHION SHOW SHALLOW BEING! they are all awesome. I am American so kiss my red white and blue ass!

[kitty9tales]

@Trykhome Not shallow or I wouldn't be talking about the lack of intellect in my country. (I am American too, dipwad). and some of us cringe at the stupidity that is so rampant in our country.

[11thhourreprieve]

@kitty9tales maybe if you think more you'd see there's more written on that T-shirt. The message isn't simply "think less". Context is everything.

[kitty9tales]

@11thhourreprieve Your comment about thinking more and seeing does not make any sense. Maybe you need to think more.

[11thhourreprieve]

@kitty9tales Oh well... I'm sorry your comprehension isn't up to speed. NVM.

[kitty9tales]

@11thhourreprieve It's not my comphrehension. It's your use of words. Thinking more does not make one see hidden words on a t shirt. (This is an example of what I'm talking about, People!)

[blindfingers1]

@kitty9tales You're a bit daft but you are right about one thing, "Americans" (U.S. Americans) can be quite stupid! I'm American too...from Canada!  "WTF" you say? America includes everything from Cape Horn to Greenland and those who live therein are Americans! So the next time you smugly refer to yourself as American meaning you're from the USA, you can spare yourself the embarrassment of looking a bit stupid. You're not as exclusive as you think!

[SgtPepper9537]

lol it kinda looks like george harrison, eric clapton, and robert johnson. but great song

[anaisamaris]

Wao!!! Wao!! Speachless!

[62heyjude]

shades of Crosby, Stills & Nash here... good luck to these guys!

[62heyjude]

a bit of Crosby Stills & Nash here... good luck to them!

[pacolebeau]

Concert à la Cigale (Paris) le 05/12/2010 !!!!!!

[melimezzomo]

very good!! no words to describe...simply fantastic!

[ICEBTTW]

best song of the new album ! <3

[totok986]

Voilà de la bonne musique pour bosser, rêver .. rouler ! :)

[HelloMrFox977]

Half these views are probably from me

Please let october 5th come sooner

I'm growing impactient!

[fifthhorseman2010]

thnx, Suzanne !!! : ) -

[Oglenthorne]

What a load of noise.

[greygal2007]

Oh my gosh!! Dhani sounds just like his dad!! Singing and talking--it's almost eerie, I agree that a collaboration between Dhani and Sean Lennon would be awesome, maybe Julian Lennon too!!  Would love to see it!! Dhani's group is awesome and this song is beautiful~

[unprivileged]

echt irre, dass ben harper mal wieder ein instumentales Projekt startet, das hab ich sooooo vermisst.

oh god I missed Ben Harper starting a new instrumental Project, awesome!!!!

[GhostofSparta54]

I can't wait for the debut album! :) This is such an amazing group

[heartvow]

Thanks for identifying the violinist. I was wondering why she wasn't listed. She adds a great deal.  Although a cello might be better!

[RockSoilder1]

I didn't know George Harrison was still alive ;)

[Yogurt2345]

historical

[mputt]

I would like for Sean Lennon to collaborate with Dhani on a song or something. Would be special.

[oregondani]

I can't get enough of this song...really beautiful! I heard it on sirius/xm radio station The Spectrum during their airing of the West Memphis 3 benefit concert. Really great band made up of a nice collaboration of talents.

[ncs1988]

it would be awesome if dhani harrison an sean lennon an julian an ringo's an paul's kids formed a band that would be awesome

[Bopalena]

A chip off the old block! 

[farrlinn]

Hell ya' I was witing for Dani to carry on the legacy!

[iuls]

Does anyone have a tab for the solo in the lead single by Fistful of Mercy ?? The video is on their main website right now, and I love the song. I learned the chords already, but need the Weissenborn Lap Steel solo Ben does towards the end. I own a Weissenborn myself and would love to learn the solo.

It would be much appreciated !

Mike

[thatbeatlesgirl1]

Dhani Harrison :) :)

[MagicalPotatoChip]

This is very cool. I can't wait for the album. Beautiful music. By the way the violinist is so talented, and such a beautiful woman.

[musictelevision]

This is a terrific recording. KUDOS to KEXP for the excellent job.

[GregBruceScott]

why isn't the awesome violinist identified???????

[sjb19020]

Greg, I think the violinist is Lisa Germano.

[kexpradio]

@GregBruceScott, her name is Jessy Greene. She's not in the band officially but is touring with them. She also plays with Foo Fighters, Old 97's and others.

[DhyanaI]

@kexpradio  after some research it looks like it is, indeed, Jessy Greene

[tarrera2005]

@kexpradio she reminds me of Scarlet Rivera

[Pusfan]

@GregBruceScott She is a hologram

[eduardodacosta]

@GregBruceScott

Jessy Greene.

Her CD "A Demon & Her Lovers" is excellent. 

[punkrockandsocks]

@GregBruceScott she's really beautiful too! hehe

[Pusfan]

@GregBruceScott - She's too awesome to be identified, it'd blow our collective minds!!

[kay19211341]

@GregBruceScott her name is Jessy Greene, and she is unbelievable live! she's an honorary Foo, she's pretty awesome :)

[pazlovett]

@GregBruceScott Jessy Greene

[Arjan3975]

@GregBruceScott The violinist is called Jesse Greene. Maybe someone already mentioned it to you. I didnt see any reaction to your question, so I rose to the occasion and wanted to tell you. Peace!

[Arjan3975]

I misspelled her name: it's Jessy. Sorry :-))

[griffithlistener]

great tune. i like that it sounds like they really worked at the songs and didn't just throw something together. unique harmonies.

[geesoul]

beautiful!

[Qhoopz11]

this was one of the most beautiful songs at the Voices for Justice/West Memphis Three concert in Little Rock. Even overshadowed Eddie Vedder and Patti Smith!

[gearboy420]

@Qhoopz11 your right, it was amazing

[chickenliqure]

I Fn love Ben Harper! Thanks for exposing me to this project, they're awesome. I love this whole re-born folk thing that's going on <3

[aloemonkey]

Thank you KEXP. I love you!!!! This was awesome.

[magiinoodles]

[vipelere]

[blkribbs]
