@@carlosmpizzi You definitely have a point :) I just meant that we make the wrong people famous dependent on the chemistry and skills of their perfomance... their songwriting is way more advanced than all the stuff you hear on the radio. I love their music and i like the fact that they are still able to perform their own music without the influence of the media or being manipulated by labels and stuff :)
@@blackriver4790 Sure I get your point, I can argue though that 'making' people famous equals to using the media to push them to appear everywhere and manipulating their image to suit how many people they can reach. Also their music isn't bound to become mainstream because of the complexity of the songs like you mentioned.
Favourite Boy is the song that I would have my young teenage daughters listen to at first to get them hooked so I can them trap them into listening to Razorblade right after.
I always look forward to hearing ANY Half Moon Run tune for the first; what’s even better is hearing it for the second time, third time, fourth time, etc. etc. etc. T. Ferris ❤
I have been watching these guys since day one, they have only matured and grown in there skills above all else.. they deserve the recognition and attention beyond doubt!.. timing was not on there side during these hard times. I can not wait until I see you live again my friends, one of the best performers I have seen yet. All the best, forever supporting you.
yeah this band chronically never gets the love it deserves. one time saw them at a club in DC and the crowd was obviously mostly randos that walked in, just talked over the show the whole time. so insanely good, and I hope to see them again (with a hopefully more loving audience)
I have to disagree that their older stuff is better. All of their music is amazing.. they keep adding and growing and evolving into better and better musicians, and it’s so much fun to watch.
Half Moon Run has been one of my favorite band discoveries of the past year. the melodies/phrasing, rhythms, and harmonies are fresh. Hope they can swing by Portland, OR in the near future.
Thank you all so much for the inspiration! As a fellow musician and islander, Either live or TH-cam, I take away so much from every time I see you gents play. Much appreciated!
Dang-Black Diamond has a Midnight Cowboy feel, a late 60s/early 70s vibe that is awesome. These guys have truly honed their craft, and love the harmonies. Looking fwd to seeing them live again.
Growing up i didn't think being in Canada would lead to amazing live music but these last few years have been stellar with Half Moon Run at the absolute peak every time I see them.
I watched an amazing performance live in St. John’s NL. The music this group puts out is so pure. The world needs more musical passion, talent and excellence that this group puts out. Please expose this to everyone you know
I can certainly appreciate their music, but watching them live is another thing. The energy, the quality, the intimacy, I just feel they are good people and I can feel them just like being there playing for a few people and not for the masses. I feel kind of special since I saw them live.
These guys...I just can't get enough of their talent. I realized how talented they were when I first saw them live in Calgary. It hit me like a ferociously wonderful wild wind. I'll never forget how I felt that night.
No matter how many times I see him do it.. Playing drums and bass/keyboard at the same time.. This group all has too much talent. And his voice feels like Shannon Hoon too. Man.. Sigh. Replay.
The best live band for me now. Fresh.. They sounds Great I ve been on gig in Poland with last album. Always Great form Respect Guys New Beatles 4me👏 Thanks for that.
I was totally blown away by their stripped down show a couple of years ago in Ottawa in an intimate venue. I am old too 😉 and it was one of the best concerts I have ever seen
I'm so excited to see these guys live tomorrow night in Ottawa! Been a huge fan for years but I have yet to see them live. I hope they play Need It (fingers crossed).
wow, watched this one also over and over again, am amazed how good they're on stage. went back through all their albums and discover more and more amazing songs! still, i'd love to see a live-album-record as then you can really feel them - amazing energy, guys! great arrangements, great singing performance! all thumbs up
What a great performance, they remind me a little of one my favorite dark horse bands ever: Split Enz. The voices, the tension points, the melodies, and the quirkyness. Love it!
Been listening to this band for a while, but had never seen a live performance before. jfc these guys are insanely talented. Reminds me of the way Rush could get so much more depth of sound than their numbers would suggest.
I hope new music keeps going in this direction. A conviction to learning an instrument or many, learning to sing harmonies, and using the latest tech where applicable.
We make the wrong people famous. This band deserves way more attention.
Blackriver47 you are so right!
nah they're alright, not being famous. They do the music they want, get to live the life they want and they don't get to be bothered by the media.

It's okay to love something and not be special.
Should be Grammy winners. I went to middle/high-school with these guys. Inspiring. Super underrated. Singer is a legend
Dylan Philips is an absolute legend, epic bass lines while playing drums.

Then again 00:12
Favourite boy 03:23
Flesh and blood 07:44
Black diamond 12:50
Razorblade 17:08
Jello on my mind 24:36
Damn these guys are great...
came here for top-quality live version of Favourite Boy
Razorblade. Masterpiece.
That's what eyem saying
My Favourite song of all time
On this album its only jello on my mind that I dislike
Strapping shakers on a hat so you can still play them even when both hands are occupied...
That is some serious shaker dedication.
Maximizing their performable area!
Favourite Boy is the song that I would have my young teenage daughters listen to at first to get them hooked so I can them trap them into listening to Razorblade right after.
these men are so very talented i'm so happy this band exists
I love how happy they are when they play together
Dear 'A Blemish in the Great Light' welcome into the discussion for the best album of the year.
Proof great music isn't totally dead.
Saw these guys in San Francisco. One of the best live shows I've ever been to.
17:15 The best six or seven minutes ive had on youtube all year, thankyou
Their playing of their the multiple of instruments is mad impressive.
I always look forward to hearing ANY Half Moon Run tune for the first; what’s even better is hearing it for the second time, third time, fourth time, etc. etc. etc. T. Ferris ❤
This is so incredibly good! This band needs more recognition. They are so insanely good live. OMFG
Can I double like this?
FAVOURITE BOY IS SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOODDD
This set is *chef's kiss* again and again.
Their talent it's astonishing, I'm in awe. I've been listenning to their last album for the last 3 days and it's one of my favorite albums ever.
100%. I watched this for the first time about 3 days ago and I couldn't believe what I had just witnessed. Finesse.
These guys sound like Simon and Garfunkel meets blue rodeo meets Radiohead meets great big sea.
half the kitchen sink is what I’m gonna call em ;)
They have a very unique sound. Awesome talent - every one of them
You guys are a big deal and the world needs this kind of genuine musicianship right now. Good timing Half Moon Run!
I Just can't get over how many instruments they switch between during the set!
I have been watching these guys since day one, they have only matured and grown in there skills above all else.. they deserve the recognition and attention beyond doubt!.. timing was not on there side during these hard times. I can not wait until I see you live again my friends, one of the best performers I have seen yet. All the best, forever supporting you.
These kinds of times might be the perfect fertile ground for making more music... 🤞
I can't believe this talent is not moving the world with their skill and creativity.
I’ve lost track of how many times I’ve watched this whole video
The music world needs this band in a big way.
This band is amazing , big musicians , originals ... good sound , style , beautiful voice, voices and vibra... love it... from Venezuela since 2013...
i'm alsooooo
yeah this band chronically never gets the love it deserves. one time saw them at a club in DC and the crowd was obviously mostly randos that walked in, just talked over the show the whole time. so insanely good, and I hope to see them again (with a hopefully more loving audience)
I am so glad that I got to see them live in Troy Ohio with Mumford and sons. They have become one of my favorite bands.
Sounds like a cool show!
CBC music it really was an awesome show. There were also many other bands like Edward sharpe and the magnetic zeros and old crow medicine show.
I'm so glad I've just discovered this band...awesome musicians!
Their better stuff is their older stuff, especially their first album
I have to disagree that their older stuff is better. All of their music is amazing.. they keep adding and growing and evolving into better and better musicians, and it’s so much fun to watch.
After Arctic Monkeys, these guys are my favorite to watch live perform. A brilliant mix of talents.
Happy you found this vid!
Half Moon Run has been one of my favorite band discoveries of the past year. the melodies/phrasing, rhythms, and harmonies are fresh. Hope they can swing by Portland, OR in the near future.
3 albums deep and they just keep getting better. Thanks again CBC Music.
4.5 now?
Thank you all so much for the inspiration! As a fellow musician and islander, Either live or TH-cam, I take away so much from every time I see you gents play. Much appreciated!
Just found this video ~ what a gem! I’m a big fan and hoping that you guys come to Milwaukee, Wisconsin on your next tour. Please! You are THE best!
Wow, they deserve so much more! Such a great band
Always one of my top fave bands to see live. Their music speaks (or rather sings) to my soul.
This band should be international by now playing stadiums, it kills me how many people have not experienced half moon run yet
I love the way each of them is multitasking with different instruments etc.. One of my fav bands
They played 18 total between the four of them!
CBC Music awesome!
The harmonies they guys come up with is just sublime. Very much talented 🎶
Gods I would have loved to be there, come by London ON sometime again soon you guys!!
Half moon você nasceu pra cantar a voz suave e doce.brasil.
So great! Come to Brazil
One of the best live bands I have ever heard and seen. Incredible musicians.
I just wanna write...: I f****** love " Favourite boy"!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Still love all of your music after 5 years!!

Great music and a very nice mix by the CBC sound engineers. Kudos.
agreed

Yessssssss razorblade YesssSs !!! 😭😭 when I first listened to the album, I knew that song would be stellar live.
Finally! Thanks for finally posting the whole show!! Wonderful sound. Amazing band.
U take me away Half Moon Run ⚘️

When did you see them in Calgary?
@@cbcmusic I saw them probably around 2014 in the basement of the Palomino. There were only about 50 people there but it was an AMAZING performance.
No matter how many times I see him do it.. Playing drums and bass/keyboard at the same time.. This group all has too much talent. And his voice feels like Shannon Hoon too. Man.. Sigh. Replay.
I'm 50 and thought I'd seen it all. This is up there with Pink Floyd. Profound.
Just a fantastic set. Their live shows are next level.
A joy to the ears, so rich in talent. Very exciting to hear the band!
This band makes magic!
No other band succeeds in giving all the feels like these guys. Absurdly talented. I am crazy excited to see them for the first time in January!
The best live band for me now. Fresh..
They sounds Great
I ve been on gig in Poland with last album.
Always Great form
Respect Guys
New Beatles 4me👏
Thanks for that.
This band is amazing. Their live songs actually sound better and cleaner than the studio versions.
I'm glad I'll see em in Italy next month.
Great to see and hear you again!! Amazing songs, both music and lyrics. Thanks.
I can't wait to see them live this year!
Top top topppppp!!! I wonder why they don’t perform “Narrow Margins” that often. I would love to listen to it in HQ live! 🙏🏼
They do actually, not sure why there aren't more recordings of it on here. I saw them about a month ago and they played it!
How much fun would it be to be in this band?! Such an amazingly creative group.
Not to put any pressure on ya but I love y'all!
im a big fan since 1 month. officially my fav band. im from montreal so cool that youre from here
Juste magnifique!
The sound of the audience laughing to their chatting between songs is like music to my ears.
The Universe Featuring Ray needs to be on the bill with these guys, they would be great musical partners.
Who'd be opening for whom?
Best band I`ve ever seen live and I`m old af and have seen loads!
Same here. They are a must see band live.
I was totally blown away by their stripped down show a couple of years ago in Ottawa in an intimate venue. I am old too 😉 and it was one of the best concerts I have ever seen
Great!! Can't wait to see these guys live in november!
Incredible.
11/10
I listen to this pretty much every day. I'm memorizing Conner's words already lol
I'm so excited to see these guys live tomorrow night in Ottawa! Been a huge fan for years but I have yet to see them live. I hope they play Need It (fingers crossed).
wow, watched this one also over and over again, am amazed how good they're on stage. went back through all their albums and discover more and more amazing songs! still, i'd love to see a live-album-record as then you can really feel them - amazing energy, guys! great arrangements, great singing performance! all thumbs up
That last 2 minutes 😍😍
AMAZING
Heard these guys today on CBC Radio live and I am sure glad I got their name as I am quickly becoming a fan! Some fantastic stuff here!
I love their unique sound
What a great performance, they remind me a little of one my favorite dark horse bands ever: Split Enz. The voices, the tension points, the melodies, and the quirkyness. Love it!
yay excited to see them in january. im flying out to oregon to visit family so i planned it so i could make the portland show =)
Saw them live at the Visualight Theater in Charlotte. They are as good if not better live. Do yourself a favor and find them.
Been listening to this band for a while, but had never seen a live performance before. jfc these guys are insanely talented. Reminds me of the way Rush could get so much more depth of sound than their numbers would suggest.
I hope new music keeps going in this direction. A conviction to learning an instrument or many, learning to sing harmonies, and using the latest tech where applicable.
I can't wait to see them live!! Great band!!!
Absolutely Awesome!
The studio musician is alive and well here.... Tight, Clean, meaningful...
Thank you for this! 🙏🏻
So good! ♥️
Wonderful music and vocals! come to Moscow!
Absolutely incredible! Kudos!!!
Bacana demais! Gostei! 👏😁
