The Swell Season & surprise guest! (Moji) "High Hope" Live at Warehouse Live in Houston

The Swell Season at Warehouse Live in Houston on November 13th, 2009. Glen introduced a new song, inviting the audience to sing along. Upon a quick rehearsal of our part, he heard one voice that he dubbed "Aretha" and promptly invited it's owner, Moji to join him onstage. Here is the magical result!

@ScreminFlea It was a year ago last night!

It seems like many of reditions of this go by the name "High Hope." I am not sure if this the name of the song, but until we learn otherwise, it would be great to retitle this so people can find this one in the mix.

Thanks for the info. I've updated the title to include the name of the song. I also just got the latest Swell Season email list newsletter and they had a link to this video in it so I have a feeling the view count is going to jump a bit very soon.

Moji! Love it. Do you have a website...where can we get some of your stuff. That is awesome and very real...it must have been so cool for you! You and Glen can belt it out. Sending good vibes from Buffalo NY!

Hey Chuck! Moji here, from the show. Thanks for posting the video! it was great proof that i didn't dream the whole thing up. I appreciate the compliments and have to say it was by far the best night of my life, a great way to celebrate having turned 25 the night before!

Don't know if this is appropriate or not, but my band is playing a show at Rudyards 2010 Waugh Dr. Thurs. Dec. 3 doors at 9pm.

I still get blown away from this performance. Again, so glad I was there for it live. This is what music is. It's a feeling. It would be impeccable if she was feature on a studio recording of this track. So much soul.
