99% of Avi's music is original and are his own compositions (sometimes written with co-writers). Every song is different and unique. The one constant in his music (besides that amazing voice) is that he deals with the pains and trials of being human while always being hopeful. Avi has dealt with a lot of depression and anxiety and he sings that for us but always with hope and love. His songs are vulnerable and fierce and always beautiful. Pick a song, you won't regret it.
All the voices you hear are Avi. No other singers. This does speak to a lot of people, doesn't it? 😅 Makes us all ready to paint ourselves blue, pick up a torch and dash into the fray. Bygods there's a battle brewing and we won't be left out! LOL
I love how Avi has soo much range and variety in his music. If you want a "drive down the highway" feel you should check out his song When I'm a fool live from Sunset sound. Lovely reaction as usual!
What I like about this one is that he is not show-casing. We all know Avi is a natural bass, but he is not forcing low notes into his songs just for the hell of it. Mad respect for people that just sing
So nice to see you listening to the primal side of Avi Kaplan😃so many different songs to listen too from the amazing voice of this man 🎤Aberdeen, Healing, Chains, My Queen ,💕 Avi plays guitar writes his songs with & without collaboration mostly all original 🙏
YES wow, this is FIRE 🔥🔥More Avi Please🔥🔥 Red your beautiful country soul shows through on this one more than I have seen❤❤ Get to feeling better OK ?? Prayers 🙏🙏🙏 #avikaplan #reaction #reactionvideo #firstreaction #redheadedneighbor #bestreactor #beautifulcountrygirl
Primal is the word you were looking for...This was one of the reasons he left Pentatonix... He was going through personal and family issues and needed to get back to his soul... Everything he does FEELS as personal to the listener as it was for him to write.
Isn't he and his voice just ummmy yummy delicious? His voice is pure velvety melted dark chocolate and its just as phenomenal in person! If you want to hear some of his lowest lows and see his classical training come to life...check out him and Peter Holland doing "Black is the Color of My True Loves Hair "😍😍😍
Below his a link to one of his latest songs. Avi Kaplan Healing (Kaplan) th-cam.com/video/mpPUgoksg9w/w-d-xo.html And to get insight into his heart, Avi Kaplan He Don't Love You Right (Kaplan) th-cam.com/video/etksoYqIQMA/w-d-xo.html
As people have already said, yes he writes his own songs. It's interesting that, while his songs can have varying styles, they always have a few traits in common: You will KNOW that he means what he is singing; other than the duet (and a few of the songs listed under the name Avriel and the Sequoias) - the background vocals (and many sounds) are all him; he WILL touch you on a deeper level. I would love the see you react to "Quarter Past Four" (as Avriel and the Sequoias) for another taste of his songwriting and another side of his voice. Oh, and yes, you did pronounce his name correctly. I hope your cold goes away quickly!
I'm glad you decided to indulge in Avi today! A few things to know...Avi writes all of his songs (sometimes with a co-write), he only has 2 covers that he has recorded (although many snippets of covers on his socials). On official recordings, all the background vocals are Avi, and many times, the bass instrument is Avi as well. Obviously live he has a band. Change on the Rise is Avi's battle song. His music varies in style but is usually pigeon holed to folk/Americana. I hope you continue reacting to Avi. For a completely different side of his music, I suggest Otherside, All is Well 7layers session #126, or Healing. These will give you the feels but in a different way! Cheers!
Thank you for reacting to AVI, every song he does has meaning, they match whatever mood you’re in, his latest tracks are HEALING & FEEL ALRIGHT, there’s not one bad song and AVI never disappoints, as someone said you won’t be going down a rabbit hole but entering the Dragon’s lair 💜🫶🏼
Avi is his own song writer. He is a classically/operatically trained singer and a highly talented musician. He [probably has the greatest resonance out there, and his traveling ban of two others are quick to say he holds very high standards in his life. 'Kaleb one said he is an angel of a man.
There's not enough people reacting to Avi's solo work. It's a very familiar sound, but I too can't find the right words to describe why it feels so familiar. This one is like being wrapped in a warm blanket then exhorted to get up and get out there and change the world.
I'm very happy you chose to react to Avi Kaplan & this song. So rich & powerful, I agree with you - it speaks to all of our souls!! 🔥🔥 Avi's lyrics are just incredible too. I look forward to hearing you react to more of Avi's music; you won't be disappointed. 😍
I subscribed today hoping for more Avi Kaplan reactions! He recently announced a new tour. He won't be near me, but he might be coming to a venue near you.
Thanks for the warm reaction to Avi Kaplan, Red! I am a big fan of both his music and the incredible man that he is ~ He is so humble and real and amazing in concert ~ Looking forward to sharing your journey of discovering his pure talent!
Avi does often have co-writers, but he is always primary in the writing. In this song, he does all of the vocals, as well as most of the backing sounds, other than some organ and tambourine in the bridge. As all the commenters are bound to tell you, you can't go wrong with any of his songs. For some backstory on what he's been doing since leaving PTX in September 2017, his record label Fantasy Records put out this trailer a couple of years ago to promote his then new EP "I'll Get By". By the way, the video was shot in his cabin and on his property in the woods west of Nashville. th-cam.com/video/6chW5J8qW74/w-d-xo.html
This song has become a favorite of Avi's loyal fan base, and he performs it at every concert with his touring band. He loves the crowd singing along. As an example, here's what I shot at his July 12, 2019 show in San Francisco on his first solo tour. Listen to the enthusiasm with which the crowd sings along.th-cam.com/video/mVnZXZYQie4/w-d-xo.html
Avi where to start?! Every song he does is spectacular. I am always amazed by his writing, you can tell is is personal to him yet at the same time it is very relatable to the listener. Every song has a different feel so it is very hard to put a label on his style. While it leans Folk/Americana there are rock, blues , soul and country influences. I saw it labeled Avicana. As others have said there is not a bad song in his catalog. One thing to keep in mind is Avi likes to "cover" his own music. Case in point his latest album Floating on a Dream 11 amazing songs, 2 of which he "covered" for The 7 Layers Sessions, then 1 of these and 3 others he "covered for the Live at Sunset Sound EP. So when we suggest a particular version know there are differences in each version. Subscribing for more Avi.
Should add Red if you listen to “ All is Well” select the “ 7Layers” session, brilliant acoustics in a Church I believe in the Netherlands, all the best from England.
Beautiful reaction, I’m happy for you that you have discovered Avi’s universe of magnificent music, you can never go wrong with anything from him. His music is eclectic but always outstanding. For a different feel (and more goosebumps), I recommend “Otherside” and “All is well” from 7 Layers Session #126. Link to “All is well”: th-cam.com/video/sNjbAAjF4Tg/w-d-xo.htmlsi=DKWcAeUr-5wcQSPv Subbed for more Avi.
Avi will playing live at the end of May in Portland. I have my tickets. Saw him in the same hall a year ago. He and his band put on a great show! So good!
I had chills too and I am a guy Try to listen to the Rick Astley Album "50" for a whole collection of this kind of powerful songs. We put the album on repeat regularly.
Avi writes most this own music. You can hear his Jewish upbringing in his music. He tours around the world although constant touring is the main reason he left Pentatonix. I love his "folk music" . Enjoy
Thank you 😊 AVI is the best 🙏🙏🙏
Nice reaction! Thanks!

It’s a very powerful song. Massive vocals!!

Great reaction!! With Avi, you never know what you're going to get, every song is different and amazing.
Superb !
Avi's catalog of songs is impressive. Most songs are of, it's OK to not be OK, or, things are going to get better.
I love how Avi has soo much range and variety in his music. If you want a "drive down the highway" feel you should check out his song When I'm a fool live from Sunset sound. Lovely reaction as usual!

Been waiting for this one
Check out Avi singing "All Is Well" in the 7 Layer Session. His official music video of the same song is great too.
YES! " Avi Kaplan, All Is Well. 7 Layers Session # 126" I keep saying that it is beauty set to music!
So nice to see you listening to the primal side of Avi Kaplan😃so many different songs to listen too from the amazing voice of this man 🎤Aberdeen, Healing, Chains, My Queen ,💕
Avi plays guitar writes his
songs with & without collaboration mostly all original 🙏
YES wow, this is FIRE 🔥🔥More Avi Please🔥🔥 Red your beautiful country soul shows through on this one more than I have seen❤❤ Get to feeling better OK ?? Prayers 🙏🙏🙏 #avikaplan #reaction #reactionvideo #firstreaction #redheadedneighbor #bestreactor #beautifulcountrygirl
Primal....all that low thunder in the background is Avi also. Loved that!!
I love Avi's soulful sound and his musical expression. great reaction. He mostly does his own thing now rather than covers.
Primal is the word you were looking for...This was one of the reasons he left Pentatonix... He was going through personal and family issues and needed to get back to his soul... Everything he does FEELS as personal to the listener as it was for him to write.
Yes, that’s it
You are right, it was fantastic! All of Avi's songs are! 😊
Isn't he and his voice just ummmy yummy delicious? His voice is pure velvety melted dark chocolate and its just as phenomenal in person! If you want to hear some of his lowest lows and see his classical training come to life...check out him and Peter Holland doing "Black is the Color of My True Loves Hair "😍😍😍
All the very looooow growls and bass you hear in this song is Avi

Strong one, after he left Pentatonix, …….like his new one a few years down the line “ Feel Alright”…….gentler….
AVI IS PURE TALENT ❤❤❤
I'm very happy you chose to react to Avi Kaplan & this song. So rich & powerful, I agree with you - it speaks to all of our souls!! 🔥🔥 Avi's lyrics are just incredible too. I look forward to hearing you react to more of Avi's music; you won't be disappointed. 😍

I really love Avi Kaplan, he's super underrated and underappreciated.

The Base undertones Avi sings on this are Damned impressive :-)

I think the word you are looking for is Primal!!!! Next one you should react to is Otherside. That one will hit you right in your feels!!!!
Yes, Primal. Perfect
Should add Red if you listen to “ All is Well” select the “ 7Layers” session, brilliant acoustics in a Church I believe in the Netherlands, all the best from England.
This really felt like a theme song to a tv show to me for some reason. I've never heard of him but his voice sounds familiar for some reason.
This song is in resident alien
He was the bass singer for Pentatonix for their first six years if that helps?
@@shirleymoffat3338 Thanks.

Avi will playing live at the end of May in Portland. I have my tickets. Saw him in the same hall a year ago. He and his band put on a great show! So good!
If I remember right...this song is the first of four "warrior" songs...I'm sorry but can't remember the order but they are all pure Avi....
I had chills too and I am a guy
