I have a great Doug story. The nicest guy in the world.. about 15 years ago my wife and I travelled 6 hours from Thunder Bay Ontario to Minneapolis to see them at first ave.. we didn’t get tickets ahead of time and found out quickly that it was sold out. We were told by a local to try the local book store down the street from the old Let it be Records.. I asked the man at the counter if he had any tickets for the show and he said no that they were all sold out and sold out everywhere else.. I hear a sweet raspy voice behind me say “I can get you into the show” low and behold it was Doug! We talked for a good 10 minutes and he was so nice and he put us on the guest list. Such a down to earth “rock god”. Thanks Doug!
That's badass!!! Nice guy
Dang that is awesome! I saw them play a few years ago and noticed him standing next to me watching the co-headliner. I just nodded at him and he nodded back haha.
that’s awesome. I could’ve met him last saturday but I didn’t want to bother him as he was packing up after a show
@@untetheredmoon6971 same thing happened to me the other day while he was watching the French tips before he played. He was getting super into it and I just smiled at him. He was too into the music to notice, but talked to me for a good while before they went on. He was at the merch table and I showed him the tattoo I got for him. I had talked to him the month before at the Cincy show for a good 40 mins so didn’t wanna take up a lot of his time like I did before. But he’s the sweetest guy you’ll ever meet. So easy to talk to even for me. And I get anxious and starstruck extremely easy
I was at a modest mouse show and he came up to me and said, "yo cant play guitar for shit" and then i woke up
Doug is the most unassuming rock god ever.
Yes he is, lol! I've met him, shook his hand and everything, great guy!
he has been since the first tree people album. i loved seeing tree people play.
Pure legend
First day I met my wife we ended up at a built to spill show( nuerolux in Boise) decided that night we should get married as a joke, well fast forward 28 years jokes on us - our youngest(18yrsold) went to her first Built to spill show with her boyfriend this past spring.....so nice to have them as the soundtrack of our lives ... so thankful
oh man, the lux.. the crown, such an amazing venue! I'm gearing up to see them in Antwerp in a couple of months. I'm so excited.
Ohhh my God 🤍 wish u The best, always! 🫰🏻
This bass player is giving me life. Nothing I love more than a band member singing lyrics to no one. Shows how much they love the tunes.
Check out Blood Lemon!
@@tuffentiny yes! Her vocals are beautiful, as amazing as her bass playing
She's got some badass chops, loved seeing how she hits those licks, spot on!
Yeah Melanie is great 🙂
Nice
I will probably listen to this a hundred times over the next eight years until the next time Built to Spill plays KEXP.
Listen in a platform that generates revenue for them. TH-cam doesn’t.
Hehe 😊 I just heard 'em & I want to post this on face, eventhough I haven't heard what he's fully singin' yet 😎
@@PeeFunk2008 hmm... so Spotify will do?
@@PeeFunk2008 sure, you can listen to their albums on a streaming service or even buy them, but it's not going to sound like this.
@@PeeFunk2008 i agree but we can't listen to this live set on streaming platforms. also I like supporting KEXP
No one asked, but I once cried in a bar when I heard them play the first note of "Time Trap".
no youre so real for that tho
@@catseatheadrest built to spill csh fan spotted
If I saw them live, I probably would too. That album means a lot to me and brings me so much comfort.
The bridge on Life's a Dream gets me every time.
Stellar set. I’m 70 …. no other music like Doug’s in my lifetime and I’m appreciative, especially these days. Love the “power trio” format too.
Built to Spill is like the reliable father of the PNW. They show up to all the games and actually care.
Even better, they show up everywhere else. Their touring is so extensive they even come to play near me across the country, when other popular indie bands that are based nearby haven't been here in years.
What a happy bass player.
The new rhythm section is pure joy.
Gonna Lose 0:39
I Would Hurt a Fly 3:17
Fools Gold 8:46
Three Years Ago Today 12:47
About 15 years ago, my whole family, including then-preschool age kids, learned to play "I Would Hurt a Fly" on drums.
Chills. The whole way through. Cheryl Waters and Doug Martsch are living legends.
Dug is a wizard as ever but Melanie makes their shows pop, such an amazing performer. Hope she and Teresa stay on for the long haul.
It's lame that Doug wasn't featured on Idaho's state quarter.
Gonna lose is such an incredible song. Makes me rethink my habits of getting into a band that’s been around for a while by only listening to the early stuff.
Doug is a human I am simply glad found a guitar and shot it through my earholes. A lot.
Doug is a blast to watch on guitar. Melanie was so fun to see live. Teresa was so nice to talk her drum kit setup after I saw them. Great and talented humans.
She is a weapon on the bass and an absolute ray of sunshine to boot.
Check out their cover of the Heartless Bastards The Mountain they've been playing this year. So powerful!
@@martypeterson6747 just saw them play that cover and a lot of classic songs. Really love the power trio, everyone's so talented.
You definitely Wouldn’t be saying that if it were a man playing….
@@sdm1568 Why would he? "Sunshine" isn't a typical male quality.
@Bob Wooler Bob deflects fron the main point because he knows it's the truth.
I love his voice. So distinct. Good lyrics and guitar tone too. 🎸🎤🥁
Doug still sounds amazing - absolute legend. Props to Melanie on bass - love her style and energy!
Built to Spill has been my favorite band since I learned about them back in 96'
That ARE THE best band in the universe. 🙌
It's hard not to love Doug's guitar style. 1st I hear of a new album. Great way to start my day.
Love Cheryl, love Built To Spill, what a Friday treat.
Cheryl is the best in the biz!
This band means the goddamn world to me
Since I discovered them in the early to mid 00s they’ve been my favorites. Glad to see this evolution of the band having so much fun. Still sounds fresh and amazing as always.
Man, that bass player is feelin the groove! love the energy
One of the best lead guitarists ever.
this new album is incredible!
man, this guy is such a fluid guitar player... KEXP sound mix and engineering is on point as always
Definitely, the mix is fantastic. It's rare for a three piece not to have the arse fall out of it when the guitar solo's.
Do it Doug!!! Built to Spill is the best band in the universe. Prove me wrong!
I can't prove you wrong, lol!
They ARE the best banding the universe!
What a pleasant surprise to find on this beautiful Friday, such a great band!
Haha pleasant surprise is just what I said!
His voice sounds fantastic
Oh yes
Hells yea siddthekid
The bassist is so good. When I saw them they had like 3 guitar players, but this new lineup is rad
If you need more of her check out Blood Lemon.
Doug is such an amazing artist.. he paints the air with colorful sonic beauty
The rhythm, the tone, the chord progression at 12:50 is quintessential Built To Spill. Love it.
Representing Boise Idaho. Under appreciated band built to spill
I delivered his Flying Pie many times back in the day
@@nickmcgarvey6463 😂😊😮😮😮did u have a chat at all with him?
I always love when they play tunes from Ultimate Alternative Wavers, that album doesn't get nearly enough love.
Bassist is adorable
Great energy.
Holy shit! My favorite band playing at my favorite live recording studio released a day ago! What a truly under appreciated band! Doug has such a unique voice and thought provoking lyrics. Although I'll miss the old lineup, I'm so excited to hear and see what this power trio comes out with over time. I saw Prism Bitch open for BTS years ago and the drum and bass was my favorite part of the band. Can't wait to see you guys at State theater in Portland Maine next fucking Friday! Woooowooooooo!
Much like the Universe, my admiration for Doug is ever expanding.
Saw them yesterday live in Cologne. What an absolutely fantastic gig that was! One of those you walk out so much happier than you were when you walked in! Just stoked and smiling!
I stayed after to talk to Doug a few months ago and while we were chatting a homeless man came up and unassumingly asked us for money for a beer. Doug went into his tour bus and gave him 2 nice IPAs lol. I ended up having a great conversation with him and the opening band for 20 or so minutes, a night I'll never forget
Just saw them live… Doug amazing as always and really enjoy the fun, chemistry and power this rhythm section has with him…especially live! New songs are great too!
that bassist is contagious
Love them 🤍🖤🤍🖤🤍🖤🤍🖤🤍🖤 my favorite music EVER is CARRY THE ZERO! 🇧🇷
Mann that dude blew my mind out with his playing and singing,I'm glad I gave thumbs up,Awesome dude and very inspiring, Very!!😅
What a great band. Great songs played well live.
Damn! That snare sound is the bomb.
Bravo!
I never cry during music but I shed a few tears to this one
Another Dug story here. About 12 years ago I saw BTS in concert. I went to the show by myself and was standing by myself during the opening band, cant remember which one unfortunately. The lights were out in the music hall. With about 10 minutes left in the opener’s set list I looked behind me and Dug was standing about 10 feet back enjoying the music. I walked up to him and said to say hi and that I was excited for the show. He shook my hand and gave me a pat on the back and said his trademark “thanks for coming out to the show” . Right before the opening band finished he slipped past security and went back stage while the lights were still out. I don’t think anyone else saw him that evening standing the the crowd. Such a cool relaxed dude.
I have tickets to see them again at the end of this month and am excited to see how they sound live as a trio. I’ve seen them before as a 5-member and a 4-member (one of the Brett’s had a broken arm or something for that show).
I love Built to Spill more than anything in this world. Melanie is so beautiful.
Me too
that bassist is a vibe. love all this
Listening to this tonight since I can't make it to the BTS show in Dallas. First time I have missed them in years of them coming here. They always play this repurposed old movie theater, and as the crowd mills around the room after the opening act, Doug will come out on stage, set up his own equipment, chat sweetly with those who want. As others have said, he's the most humble, badass, down to earth rock god. I feel incredibly lucky to have discovered the band some 20 years ago. This is just special. So much so that I am considering blowing my deadline and heading to the show ...haha
For as long BTS has been making music, and for as long as I've been listening--the line-up changes NEVER get old. Ever. It's always a treat to see 'new' musicians to the band show-up, spotlight, whatever you wanna say. It truly is soooo much fun to see and listen.
I love this band in any line up. This one here is one of my faves though. THANK YOU KEXP!!!
Rhythm section is tight and solid. Always love watching and hearing Doug shred absolute face. Love that they're playing new songs and tossed in a song from Ultimate Alternative Wavers. Great mix of tracks here
y'all are in for a treat when you hear the new album
New line up is great, that bass slaps 😁I miss the extra guitars on the old songs but Doug's still got enough talent to make up for it
Agree but I also like the sparse arrangements, especially on I Would Hurt a Fly.
@@SolamenteVees works really well for this song actually, you're right
Yes to new line up, Yes to new tracks, YES TO BUILT TO SPILL NOW AND FOREVER
I can’t believe I’ve never heard of this band. Thanks again Kexp!
that was really great. their rhythm section is so grooving now.
Awesome story and not surprising.. I met Doug before a show @ Paradise in Boston last tour. He was playin hoops down the street, and then again was able to bs a bit before a week day show in the pioneer valley.. dude never dissapoints..
So happy they played I would hurt a fly one of my favorite songs
so good. I hope he releases a live album with this lineup.
I was just telling my daughter about hanging out with these guys after the concert they were so nice
This band spans time, grows with you but stays fresh. Classic unique sound.
we all love built to spill their da bombdiggity
i've never seen someone as happy as the bass player.
Absolutely fantastic show! It might be recency bias talking but I prefer this over the previous KEXP performance, solid set list and great sound. I love how dry Doug is in the interview and how energetic Melanie and Teresa during the performance. Overall just amazing!
Digging the stripped down sound. Sounds great.
Uncle Doug has still got it
Man, that was fantastic. These three just ooze coolness.
Timeless band.
Little things in life brings more joy to mine than listening to Built To Spill
Love that the drummer is wearing an Itchy Kitty shirt. Local Spokane band!
Saw Itchy Kitty touring with BtoS last year. They are awesome! Also saw Prizm Bitch at the same show, their drummer Teresa is the one touring with Doug and drumming for him as well. The amazing Mel, BtoS bassist is the bassist/lead singer for Blood Lemon. They are good stuff too!
Solid! Please come over and play Europe this winter, Doug! 🤩
Just saw them in Cinci last night and I stuck around for a while and he came back out to start packing up. I have terrible social anxiety but knew this would probably be my only chance to just walk straight up and talk to my idol. So I did. And as nervous as I was he made it extremely relaxed and comfortable. Extremely down to Earth. Talked to everyone that wanted to talk to him. And was nice enough to take a picture with me and give an autograph. One of the sweetest people you’ll ever meet if you get the chance. We talked for well over 35 minutes me and about 5 or 6 other guys just hanging out by the stage with him. Their was a drunk fan who kept coming back for high fives and interrupting other people and stuff but you could tell he was just excited and really vibing out. Doug could have easily told that guy to chill out after the third or fourth time but he never did. He high fived him everytime and made sure to acknowledge him and reply in such a kind way and even joked around a bunch with him. Not many people are like that anymore. Absolutely awesome experience. Still feels very surreal.
❤❤❤
@@uncooldispatch5438 he was so awesome. He even told the drunk guy he’d go listen to his band. And remembered their name which I’ve Alr forgotten at this point and told him he’d check it out right as he left. It was around 40 mins which I had no clue. I was startruck so it felt like it went by fast and slow and the same time. I looked at my pictures and The first one was taken at 11:20 and I didn’t leave til about 4 mins before 12. I truly don’t think anybody else would do that for their fans. I didn’t talk to him the whole time I’d step aside and let everyone else get to meet and talk to him as long as they wanted but a good 20 of it he conversed with me. Learned more in those 40 mins than I have from most their interviews. It’s crazy how little us built to spill fans have get to see and learn about them. A road documentary from the 90’s- early 00’s would have been so cool to see with Doug, the Brett’s, Jim and Scott. Maybe one day one will get posted. Like some unreleased thing. We never know. All we can do is hope:)
@@uncooldispatch5438 I got the signature he gave me on my arm tattooed today too. Looks badass. It was my first one. So I’m glad it’s sentimental
I saw them in St Petersburg Fl, Doug was out Maning the march table. My brother and I went up to buy a record and we're taking a back by the price of 60 dollars and didn't recognize him at first. He came up to ask and asked how much we were willing to pay and signed it!! Made me feel like a jerk a bit.
@@justinbracciale2948 yeah I didn’t love the idea of paying it either but the fact it was signed by him made it completely worth it for me. I bought one and then a couple shirts. It’s never cheap at a concert but makes you feel a little better knowing it helps them out on tour and helps them live and stuff lol. I’m sure he didn’t think you were a jerk. He’s a super nice guy
Built to Spill is like a warm blanket on my brain ❤️ thank you kexp for these wonderful live performance/interviews.
The new lineup is so refreshing. Brings some new energy to the band.
Agreed! Kinda wish they had a second guitarist too but, I ain't complainin' about this.
Saw this lineup live a couple months ago and it was about as stellar as you’d expect.
Power Trio!!!
BTS has always had revolving line up right? Doug is the only constant.
Agree. But for such a guitar driven band that is known for having multiple layered guitar parts in almost all their songs... not having a second guitarist is outrageous. Both times I saw them live was great but could've been so much better hearing rhythm and leads.
Usually pre order an album and forget this one keeps starting at me in bandcamp. Very cool to hear stripped back down to a 3 piece. She absolutely rips that bass line in I would hurt a fly almost hits the cello sound
I've long loved this band. Saw them in Toronto mid-2000s and I've gotta say these songs and this new lineup ... just sound great. Very tight rhythm section. No second guitar gives Doug more room, different dynamic but also still classic Built To Spill.
Maaaaaan it hurts me that I haven't seen BTS in person all these years. Wish I hadn't gone down the loophole of old and new music alike so late when they were in my city last week! Hope Doug keeps going healthy and well for years to come. These women are amazing as well their sound is so strong here ❤️
Hell yes. I’ve probably watched the old one 2000 plus times.
Wow! That guitar sound ❤🔥
Another day, listening to this again. Thanks KEXP
Great version of Three Years Ago Today
❤❤❤
I love built to spill didn’t know they had a new album thanks kexp this is rad!
Just discovered these guys today. Great band.
Fantastic! The Built to Spill was my favorite KEXP performance, had been for a few years. It's nice to see them do another one, and with the new lineup, too.
I’m so glad I got recommended this. These guys are amazing
Just saw this beautiful band tonight. Doug, you absolutely still got it, you gentle soul. Keep it up.
One of the best sessions. Very impressed. Definitely getting tix if they cross the pond to sunny London.
Doug! you're my most favorite musician! i'm listen to your songs anytime.
keep going~❤
Doug gets better and better as a guitar player. Pretty wild
Beautiful.
The early 2010’s I found one of their album called Keep it as a secret and I listed to it, I felt like I was being cuddle or something. Doug is an amazing songwriter. Hats off from Japan 🇯🇵
These guys are absolute kings 👑
Honestly can’t count how many times I’ll have Doug on my mind.”Offer” being one of my favorites.
What’s joy to be around from Boise as well 🤠
