kidsmoke Posted April 16, 2017 Share Posted April 16, 2017 Every single Solid Sound, I find myself wishing I'd spent more time beforehand, researching the talent. It's so easy to overlook a gem! So let's help each other get introduced to this year's roster with a collection of videos. Just pick an artist on the roster and post a video of them. I'll start with a couple. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jgYFXQrVZq4 A bit of delicious Tweedy to get the anticipation rolling! And my favorite Kevin Morby song... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pWDvlekoPkg Now YOU pick us one! We have a whole bunch of people to research. Here's a link to the lineup so you can choose an artist to explore: http://solidsoundfestival.com/lineup/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites

tinnitus photography Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 Kurt Vile is certainly pretty well known, but i wanted to post my favorite song of his... it's got a real Neil Young On The Beach vibe to it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EI-jaJ6pEhI Quote Link to post Share on other sites

gr8fulpete Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 Deep Sea Diver opened for Wilco at the Friday Fillmore show -- really great live show. Here's a vid of a live performance on KEXP. They're definitely worth catching at SS. Jessica Dobson is a great talent! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lzzaFtK7p3I Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gr8fulpete Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 Sorry to double-dip, but I also caught Kacy & Clayton as the opener at one of the Filmore shows. Great stuff. Here's another KEXP video of them: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sYSoN-ueufU Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tinnitus photography Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 I had you pegged as more of a Pretty Pimpin' kind of guy...j/k. i actually like that song quite a bit, it's catchy as hell. I've seen Kurt a lot but am still waiting for him to play "Blackberry Song." That's another fave. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bill39me Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 Have to say that I really like what I have heard from Big Thief - try the songs "Masterpiece" or "Paul" for starters... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oacUgWXrqwc *Admin edit: I have tucked in the video for Masterpiece for you. Good stuff! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
worldrecordplayer Posted April 19, 2017 Share Posted April 19, 2017 i actually like that song quite a bit, it's catchy as hell. I've seen Kurt a lot but am still waiting for him to play "Blackberry Song." That's another fave.I don't know his songbook all that well, but for me it's Wakin On A Pretty Day, and everything else. https://youtu.be/bd0K76H7sU8%C2%A0 Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Oil Can Boyd Posted April 19, 2017 Share Posted April 19, 2017 I just posted this in the SS thread but here again is Joan Shelley. Jeff Tweedy is producing her upcoming album, and she's currently on tour with Richard Thompson. Saw her last night opening for (and then playing with) Richard Thompson and she was fantastic.
