    Avi has become my favorite artist. I could listen to his music all day long. Thanks for reacting to Avi!

    If you continue with Avi's music, you will find yourself saying "I didn't expect that". His music and voice are unique and different. Whether it's motivational, meditational, sorrowful or joyful his songwriting and singing is masterful.
    Suggestions for something completely different: Otherside, All is Well (7layers session #126), or When I'm a fool live at sunset sound.
    Great reaction, cheers!

    What I like about his music (apart from great lyrics, music and voice) is that he doesn't show off, he doesn't have to because he sounds great high or low. This is one of my favourite songs ❤ another suggestion from me is All is Well, 7 layer session. It is just him and a guitarr in a church, so beautiful!

    What a great reaction, thank you! I love Avi’s music, too. Another suggestion would,be “I’m only getting started” - it has a very cool black and white video.

    Suggest When Im a Fool live from Sunset Sound. And anything else in your reccommendations for him.

    I wholeheartedly agree with you there. At first I was really sad he left PTX his warm baritone was missing but looking at it now it was obviously the best he could do for himself and I kinda see the song reflecting this. He found his way back to his spiritual, nature loving self. Away from the pop tunes the stress and all. He lives his authentic self now. And yes LONG HAIR FTW!! Great reaction!

    I love what Avi is doing solo. I think he has an amazing voice. So beautiful, so well controlled and so rich. His videos are always short movies and I love that talent he has as well.
    This location us close to where he grew up. Sierra nevada mountains and the Mohave desert. California

    Avi is from Visalia, California.
    His maternal grandparents and GG Grandparents.. owned an old western pack station.
    Riders would come through and rest their horses, and they would feed the riders and the horses and the riders would rest before heading out again. On trips to visit his grandparents there was a little town called Aberdeen.
    He loved the sound of the word and decided as a child he was going to write a song about it. This is that song he planned as a child.
    The whistling at the end is Avi,

    This video was shot mostly by way of drone by Jimmy Bates, the video genius behind FifGen Films, the company that filmed several PTX videos such as "Daft Punk Medley", "Love Again", "Can't Hold Us", "Radioactive", "Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy", "Problem", "I Need Your Love", and "Run To You". Avi says that, while he rode horses a lot in his youth in California, he hadn't been on one in 20 years and of course ended up very sore by the end of the shoot. Ah, the sacrifices one makes for one's art... Aberdeen is a village near where his mother grew up, between the Sierra Nevada and White Mountains, and that's where the official video was filmed. Avi tells the backstory of the song in this concert video I shot at his August 24, 2019 show in Dallas TX (sorry that the kick drum overwhelms the rest somewhat, as I was using my iPhone and it focused on the loudest sound). th-cam.com/video/ZA_BfPFHNgQ/w-d-xo.html

    I was really sad when Avi left PTX, but I think he's better off solo. He's an amazing song writer and singer. I think he can go far.
    Some of my favorites from him are Sweet Adeline and Sweet Adeline pt2, All is Well, First Place I Go, He Don't Love You Right, Full Moon, When I Die, and Chains.

    Love your reaction 👍 You have to listen to more Avi and you will be blown away by the diversity of his talent 😍 I recommend When I'm a fool, recorded live at Sunset Sound. His from his last album Floating on a dream. He recorded live 4 songs in LA with tremendous musicians directed by Shooter Jennings. When I'm a fool is a masterpiece, just wonderful, pure music, just art 😍 Hope to see you react to this one 🤞 Thanks 😘

    I would love to see you react to All is well, there’s three versions of it out there (official duet with Joy Williams, acoustic live version for 7Layers sessions and Live at Sunset sounds with a full band) because Avi likes to play around and basically covers himself. Would be fun to hear your thoughts on the different takes.

    He's so much more than a bass line. 5 octaves i believe. So much diversity. Try b/w video of I'm only getting started or When I'm a Fool live at Sunset Sound. It jams. More Avi please.

    I absolutely 💯 love this Original Song by AVI. This is in California. I’m from N. Calif. and my Tribes territories looks like this in certain places. ..I’m Indigenous Native American. I believe the Washoe Tribe is from this area. Yes 🙌🏽 this feels like a Western Song..I showed this to my oldest daughter and she only mentioned that AVI looks like “JESUS “. 🙋🏻‍♀️❤️🇺🇸

    I invite you to discover this wonderful talented young singer.
    This angel is one of the best singers (incredible extremely low vocal, dramatic contralto + polyphonic voice) in the world!
    Diana Ankudinova
    I was stunned to find that the first performance (Show "You are Super") I heard was when she was 14!!!!
    She's now 20 and still developing. She sings in Russian, French, English, German, Spanish and Arabic.
    The covers she performed on that show are very popular on TH-cam. Many TH-camrs publish reactions on these performances, which include "California Dreamin' " , "Sweet Dreams" (all 19 y.o.), "Can't Help Falling In Love", "Crow", "Personal Jesus" (all 18 y.o.), "Wicked Game", "Human" (15 y.o.), "Derniere Danse", "It's a Man's Man's Man's World" (14 y.o.), "Take On Me" (17 y.o.) and others.

    Any reactor who appreciates Avi is getting my subscription! If you think his videos are great, you need to see him live in concert ~ Avi is warm, personable, humble, fun and SO talented! To view even more variety to his line up please add his stunningly beautiful "Avi Kaplan, All Is Well, 7 Layers Session # 126" and his jamming "When I'm A Fool, Live at Sunset Sound" to your reactions, you won't be disappointed!!

    This is the farmland of his grandparents near a town by the name "Aberdeen". In his youth Avi rided a lot. He told jokingly: I promised Snip (the horse) a sack of carrots if we could do this recording.
    And it seems Snip answered OK with me, look for the carrots.😁🤣😇
    Only the part of the speaking horse is a joke.
    Be safe minherr.
