- A lot of people come to the music of Volcano Choir - and see concerts like this one - because of the band's lead singer, Justin Vernon, an artist better-known for his work as Bon Iver. But Volcano Choir isn't a Bon Iver side project. It's a completely separate creative force, and the group's songs sound like no one else's.
On the night of this show, recorded live at the 9:30 Club in Washington, D.C., the members of Volcano Choir made magic, sometimes with layered effects in real time on both vocals and electronics, and sometimes with something as simple and beautiful as an acoustic guitar. And just when you think a song has found a groove or a peak, it would build a little more and morph into something new.
Volcano Choir has released two very different records. The first, Unmap, came out in 2009 and was an ethereal, mysterious collection of songs. The group's latest, Repave, is more song-based and sonically adventurous. Together, they made for a rich, transporting live experience. --BOB BOILEN

It’s been 8 years and I still hope every day that we’ll get a studio release of the Valleyinaire
Image are with you in that
I was literally just now thinking the same thing! valleyinaire is such an amazing song!
I've talked to both Chris and Thomas about unreleased VC songs. They've told me there's sooooo much unreleased stuff beyond Valleyinare and some of the other new tracks from this tour but they have no idea if anything will ever happen with any of it.
@@1984therocker Hopefully they'll find a way to do it...perhaps a limited edition box set. Thanks for the update! :)
I feel like Juston Vernon has moved on permanently. I found out about this band by accident when I randomly bought Repave at the record store because I liked the cover art. I've been in love with their short discography ever since.
So much Fuckin swag at 50:25
Agreed:)
+nick arndt bahah! he's the flippin' man.
Comrade is the greatest song of all time. Especially in its live version.
Years can go by & I still come back to this video to hear Valleyenaire. I wish they'd release new music--their talent is certainly missed!
All their songs are brilliant live versions. Justin collabs and always writes the most amazing music man. Modern day Mozart.
Always love the crowd cheering at the "legend" lines in Byegone. They know it; he knows it.
Edoardo - it looks like we’ll never know, friend....
Once listening to any of Justins live performance its always so difficult going back to listen to the original recordings
Totally agree. The emotion he puts into the live stuff is just so irreplaceable.
Thats totally true. I end up watching the live performances rather than listening to the original tracks
so true
I couldn't agree more. All the live stuff blows my mind!
yesssss
God bless you NPR, you raging nerds with simultaneously great taste in music.
I wonder if we'll ever get another album. I can dream.
mason miller I have a feeling next year will be big
@@danielpinheiro7261 I think we may have another Volcano Choir and another Big Red Machine in 2020 or 2021...
@@philippelambert1475 we're definitely getting new music from Big Red Machine soon
Was just thinking the same thing.
@@philippelambert1475 you're half right!
This helped me a difficult time when my mom passed
I'm sorry for you loss but glad this concert helped you get through the grieving. 💜 This concert helped me through a bitter divorce, as well as The National Live at Best Kept Secret
This music really is medicine. Sending a hug your way.
The high pitched "Well I know that you love me" is a masterpiece by itself.
Please don't get me started
What minute
Love love love Volcano Choir! I think 'Alaskans' is one of the most beautiful songs ever written.
The bridge in "Blue Ni Ni" is just out of this world
One of the best concerts of my life, everyone was stunned into silence for the majority of the show.
This is what would happen if bon iver went into space! 🤤
I could listen to Justin Vernon live all fucking day... Volcano Choir has so much depth into their music with all the instruments, unbelievable
Probably one of the best live sets ever... The stars aligned for this one
Comrade is so beautiful

I could cry just reading this list
I love how you can just see their outline and not their faces. It goes to show that they are actually just about the music!
blue ni ni is incredible, i really hope we get a studio version one day
The Valleyinaire is criminally underrated
Well said!!
I've watched this 27 times in the last 3 days. Great show.
Jon proves how essential a good drummer is to this band at 34:11 oh my gosh, what a freaking awesome fill
This is an incredible performance. 🎭
Unbelievable. Restores my faith in the power of music.
He's a legend, I'm a legend...
...and we both go, tripping through the door...
SET SAAAAAIL
Imogen Grace thelegend27
What's up with this legend? sorry I'm a newbie
Boldi Kubikos - Same q
I've seen a lot of shows and some things and also some stuff, and this is one of the greatest shows I've ever seen. All hail The Algorithm 🙏
Valleyinaire is incredible
I was lucky enough to be able to fly from NY to Milwaukee for the final show of their tour last year, and when Byegone played, the whole place exploded.
I wish I could find a live version of Almanac. My all time favourite VC song
Love the absolutely psyched crowd haha!
Take note, there's still a hole in your heart
When he says 'lover won't you talk to me about the long red war' I immediately get chills. That song is perfection.
And then Bukowski at the end, whoa.
This is the best version of Alaskans I've ever heard
Just watch and listen! Music at its best.
Island,IS FTW. Idc what anyone says, that song jams
Beautiful Stage.... LOVE BY FRANCESCA.... awesome
Most beautiful collaboration. We need more from you, please. You soothe my soul.
I like Bon Iver, but I've got to say, this is far better. Outstanding stuff.
+Luke Rogers I agree. 100%. New Bon Iver stuff is awesome though, might give us a run for our money.
The other band my son was in with Justin!!
Andy Fitzpatrick by chance?
byegone. goosebumps. everytime.
I wish they would release live tracks from this concert to streaming platforms! How amazing would that be?! 💜
Best part of waking up is Volcano Choir in your cup
I listen to everything Justin does lol
Can't stop watching this show... amazing
the old dude on the guitar is my favorite
They came to Toronto and I missed it. Had tickets too. #FML
Why isnt the valleynaire on Spotify? So good!
Justin Vernon/Volcano Choir couldn't be more magnificent if they tried :)
And at once they knew, they were magnificent :)
I would love to see them! The blend is perfection!
Another amazing concert on TH-cam featuring Justin is "Bon Iver: Full Concert | NPR MUSIC FRONT ROW"
Some of the portion of the band that isn't Justin Vernon is otherwise known as the post-rock band 'Collections Of Colonies Of Bees', and their other music is fantastic.
originally pele .
Jesus they really really really need to release The Valleyinaire. PLEASE.
Volcano Choir reunion!
So good
These guys are epic
play skinny love!!!!
(haha, I kid, I kid…..)
There's a dude in the crowd constantly yelling "Play seven sisters", which is a shouting matches song 🙄
One of the best bands. Majestic music.
Island takes Me somewhere no one can find Me-not even Me
There is no better way to start a concert than with the words "wake up"
These shows with NO front lighting are really tough for you guys and gals on camera and producing the video, but you knock it out of the park every time. Well done.
While the top comment suggests listening to VC isolated from Bon iver, I myself listen to VC as an extension of Bon iver, a new chapter if you will. Justin Vernon has been leaning further and further away from his snowy shacked For Emma. While so many don't like this shift in style(believe me I understand, for Emma is my favorite album from him), I very much support it as we can see just how wide a range of music Justin can produce for us. His lyrics alone are enough of a bridge between his projects to keep me eager to hear what he has in store. VC is very much the embodiment of Vernon's sonic exploration and I very much enjoy it.
Beautiful!
Volcano Choir please guys put Valleyinaire and Blue Ni Ni up on iTunes!! Please!!! Don't make me wait YEARS to own these songs man, you can't be that cruel to me
This really is beautiful. I love these guys.
Man, I love Volcano Choir.
Love this. Great production work. Sounds amazing for a live recording. Would expect nothing less from NPR Music.
Glad to see Justin live again! Love the new album guys!
There is so much good music on NPR i cant keep up with it, but will be back tomorrow and the the day after,and the day after that, keep up the music flowing
This show was so amazing! I was lucky to see them in such a small theater in Chicago
such an amazing concert! so much in love with this band :)
very cool, love it!!!!!!
Nice guitar and Justin Vernon voice at 36:12 (Alaskans)!
Can't get enough of this
Gotta make it to one of his concerts. At least one.
thats so crazy u posted this. i am listening to the exact NPR concert right now, for the same time, almost at the same place in the concert. thanks for posting!
thank you so much for this! lots of goosebumps. :)
Im in love with The Valleyinaire. Help me.
So tragic that there is no studio recording of it
Charlie Martin you're right man. I keep listening to it in here and I feel lucky, though.
Clarissa Bargellini Charlie Martin I was speaking to Chris (the guitarist) about that track, after a VC gig back in 2013. He said they already recorded it during the Repave sessions along with a load of other unreleased material, but the band decided that none of it belonged on the album. Hopefully they'll find a home some day!
Clarissa Bargellini ma da dove è uscita questa magnifica canzone :3
ILL BE BURNIN IT UP
Reminded me of Chris Martin but haven't heard Justin Vernon in really long, nice!
I freakin love Island, IS
Thank you Justin
wow....This is what I call "music".
Congrats guys :)
Eaux 2016 please.
My only complaint was that it was too short!
Person: “Bon Iver has weird music.”
Justin: “Hold my vocoder.”
gorgeous
freaken sweeeet! thanks!
i really hope they do another record
Why do people compare this with Bon Iver? Just listen to this band as if Bon Iver never existed. Expand your taste in music! Try something else on the menu! Sleep on a different mattress! Drive a different car! Make yourself cry! Eat toothpaste! Poop outside! You get the picture?
+doubleay battery Because it is the same singer.
Just the singer, but to me, he sings with a different way than Bon Iver.
ilysm
doubleay battery check the shouting matches and deyarmond Edison
I agree with you! If he wanted to make another Boni
Album he would have. I'm thinking if you are looking for similar albums from this genius,stop now. I can't believe that he will do nothing but push his music to new places and sounds and innovations that he is a master at.
"Valleyinaire" Will change your life!
thank you for the recommendation! i especially enjoyed justin's 'dad dancing' at 17:45 hahahah
amaaziing thx this live
Trop bien
fantastic
He’s a legend
apaixonado!
I really like how some parts of some songs sound like from Bon Iver really pretty interesting as well
Ostie que j'adore ce band.....!!
36:57 Juuustiiiin!!!
Comrade
Still here listening to Comrade 7 years later 😅
