i was listening to donny benet all night last night, woke up this morning and the universe answered back with this performance
So he's not our little secret anymore?😊❤
After this performance, I'm ready to love! Genius Benét!
I was listening in the background while working, and at some point I was like "where is this music coming from ?". It's crazy that it's a live ! It sounds really good. Then I noticed that he sings while slapping the bass, what a beast !
Everyone in the band is no doubt highly talented, but the full sound comes from the massive amount of backing tracks they're using (vocals, synths, keyboards). The drummer triggers them on a pad before every song.
I see the guys riding against the sunset. Great stuff!
Donny for life. Bringing the sensual grooves 🚬
Much love Donny
Fantastic!
Wow! I’ve heard a couple songs by these dudes and I didn’t realize the bass is singing! Hell yeah
seemed like only yesterday I was cruising in my speedboat to these songs in 1984
I lost my raybans on that speedboat
Were you also doing cocaine?
Was it made of bananas?
How many kilos?
Hell Yeah, been wanting to catch Donny for a few years now. Sad that every time he's in the states Im booked. Donny, please book a show next week when I'm in Perth lol.
Vice city vibes especially on forbidden love
🌴 🌅🌴
How did you get a drummer to play that softly?
Was also wondering, i can do it but don’t always like it 😂😂😂
it's de rigeur for jazz-trained drummers to play well softly
:)
the vocals let it down, because the music is exquisite. Forbidden Love would sound amazing with a great singer
Too bad he cannot sing. Keep the sound and hire a real singer.
Donny is the man !!!
Donny's songwriting is great but I think a lot of people underappreciate how good of a bass player he is. Top notch technical skills that get applied tastefully to support the song and create infectious grooves.

i farted
He's a fine bass player..
BUT. the thing that is most impressive about him is the fact that he can play this shit and sing lead on all these songs... and it's all super complex and syncopated. It's not like the song gets simpler when he starts to sing and then he complicates it for the instrumental breaks..
It's like trying to juggle and ride a tricycle or something.
It's the first time I watch him (or listen to him), and clearly he is more a bass player than anything. His singing is not great but damn that bass is pure fire.
I said it before and will continue to..Donny’s the baddest man on the planet..I wouldn’t mind seeing him in two collaborations:
with ThunderCat
with Mayer Hawthorne
THUNDERCAT, yes ❤️🔥
Khruangbin, Daryl Hall... maybe Tenille if she's up for a one-off... and any number of current divas would make excellent collabs, IMO.
I'd love a Donny/Thundercat collab
Amazing audio engineering!
Totally!
i disagree; the bass is far too low in the mix. this genre in general, and particularly Donny's music, all has the bass *very* far forward
@@gloverelaxiscontext matters in this specific instance
Drummer looks like he's playing in slow motion
Much respect for every mustache in the room.
Also love the way Kevin say INFINITE...desires...
The Don, a true legend.
Donny and the boys rocked the house in Portland. Can't wait to catch them again
I fucking love Donny. If you're a bass nerd check out his youtube channel! He goes into the basses he uses and how to play his songs!
Man's tone is immense! We're all so busy focusing on his moustache that we forget he's a monster bassist first of all.
That is the most chilled out pocket drummer I've ever seen.
Both SAX and Drummer are related to Donny btw ;) kinda cool if you ask me.
DJ from Khruangbin also is pretty chill while in the pocket 😊
The Don and KEXP 🔥🔥🔥

Very tight, great sounding band. Fantastic bass playing. Great saxophone player
I watched the performance and I became a fan.
You're in for a treat. Check out his Le Piano EP after the new album. One of my faves
This is what peak male performance looks like
Saw Donny and his band live in ATL earlier this year and I was blown away. Talented and suave. I wouldn’t be surprised if everyone got pregnant that night!
Ey! I was at that show too. Super great right?!
With moustaches like that, I'm not surprised!
I sure did, and I only saw this video!

The outro to Forbidden Love....I just can't get enough of it!!!
The live performance I've been waiting fooor. Thank you.
So happy to see Donny get more recognition! ✌️ Peace n love from Chicago
I've got some serious mustache envy right now.
Whoa I did NOT expect to see Benny on here today. Hell yeah!!
Never clicked so fast on a new KEXP video!!!😊
This is top quality! The drummer is not playing; he is floating.
Nice catch lol
love the mix, super-tight playing. Donny & band , absolute legends!
Donny is a pornographic time traveller. I wish him safe travels, salutations.
Awesome musicians!
The amount of Steely Dan records I'm prepared to make with this guy is truly absurd
The fact that Donny's vocals wouldn't impress a vocal coach turns off the judgmental part of my brain, and helps me to just enjoy the fucking music. Imperfections are not the enemy of good music.
The Waples Bros. are on fire!
Donny is so talented
Donny Benét makes me want to pick up my bass and learn to slap. Might even grow a moustache.
Hot enough to toast!
Saw them live a few months ago and they sounded amazing, Donny's very funny and stuck around after the show to sign merch and take pictures with fans. It was also at a barbeque spot which was an added bonus.
It sounds like it comes straight from the 80s but I couldn't tell any artist that is like him. Does anyone know similar musicians with this breezy City Pop vibe? Other that he Bee Gees ...
I really can't think of ANYTHING else like him. He is a blend of electro funk and synth pop with his own mustache just genre defining all on it's own.
There's a lot of Steely Dan in this sound!
You could try 10cc?
Not totally similar, but TWRP is infinitely enjoyable.
Great player with a sense of humor. 👍
Menos mal te pude ver en vida, mi Donny. Thanks for the signed records!
Such a tight ensemble. Donny and the crew never disappoint!
Donny Benét - beste Mann
Alaaaaaa que buen talento traen estos batos, definitivamente KEXP nunca decepciona con los artistas que traen a su programa. 👀
What a sound! That bass! Donny is the Best🤩!
Burnin’ it up donny!
So hawny
Wait, so he isn't some Tim and Eric character running amok in the real world?
Unfathomably talented on the bass. Amazing live mix.
Buddy is slappin that thing
aguante el donny de la gente!!!
The Don has so much mana 🎶 if he were to cover Cee-Lo Green's "Hot Tub of Love" someday 🎉
Love you Donny!
Should have found a bald 4th band member to keep with the theme. Hope the new guy catches up quick with the rest!
The Main Man, the Don 🤌🏻
The god is back on KEXP. Thanks KEXP :)
We love you Donny !
I just finished watching this set, thank you for sharing. I can’t wait to see Benét for my birthday. I already have my tickets ✊
saw them live in march and am still thinking about how good the guitarist is, absolute professional live
Trying to figure out whether this is hipster music or bald man ponytail music.
Saw Donny live.. it's even funkier in person
I was 11 years old in 1973 when this song was played on the countdown and I'll never forget when my dad looked at me and said Son if you ever grow up to be as cool as Donny you've succeeded in life.
I'd like to order another 3 minutes of the 8 bars at 03:56 thanks
Will this be the touring band in 2025?
I ❤ Donny, man! Great to see him back here with a band! I didn't know Stanley Tucci could hold a beat like that!
Donny Benet future "gq's sexiest man alive" I'm calling it
Thompson Steven Martinez Jeffrey Jones Frank
Modern day legend.
Oh and one more thing... If there were a thing such as Donny Stock... I would invest.
That's the weirdest drummer I've ever seen.
As soon as The Don Plays in England with full band, I'm there 🤘🏼
Rodriguez Mark Walker Helen Anderson Daniel
Timeless
Tnx
Stanley Tucci is a groove machine.
Love The Don! Saw him in LA last year. Outstanding!
They have that late 70s, early 80s west coast sound down.
So good
