Seriously though, what is going on in Australia? The vast majority of my favorites over the past couple years all come from that country and every day I'm introduced to more and more great musicians from oz
As I understanding it (but don't ask me for details!), the Australian government supports musicians, and as a result more musicians are inclined to actually give it a go. Turns out that lets a lot of great musicians make enough of a living to keep at it and be heard. Repeat after me, rest of the world: Support the Arts!
@@josephmcfadden6513 Seriously though! Julia Jacklin and Aldous Harding have been some of my heaviest listening this year. Aldous's subliminal advertising for unique wide-brim hats has got me really considering too...
This is an artist that reminds you to rise up. To be your authentic self, to start writing again, to turn your pain into flowers, that songs can be stories, ballads of the heart. Fucking thank you.
Why Australia and Canada? Healthcare!!! Middle class kids can spend their twenties exploring their poetry without needing to get mired down giving the man 40 hours a week. Sweden too!
We still have huge economical issues affecting us here, plus housing is absolutely ridiculous atm, i'd say that's one of the worst things here. But yeah good bands!
I strongly hate our healthcare system here in the US, and I also hate our emphasis on work over the arts. But we’re still pumping out just as many incredible, unique artists as we always have. We just need to remember to keep fighting for additional funding. Not to make this political, but Yang and the decently positive perception of UBI was a great step in the right direction for people to have the ability (and capital) to explore the arts a little further. Also, Sweden? I might be ignorant, but I don’t hear much about Swedish artists doing anything particularly groundbreaking?
San Cisco, Tame Impala, now Stella Donnelly all from Fremantle in Western Australia! Prolific little town isn’t it. I love Perth and Fremantle’s music scene, and I agree with Stella, the isolation of the Australian west coast distils artist and their work into a lot of fine quality #perthisok
Yes!!!! She’s amazing and super talented, one of my favorite artists :3 it’s so cool to see her here on KEXP, she deserves more attention, her work is fascinating! :)
Its strange to think that people from other parts of the world havent heard music like this before. So good to see pub rock on the world stage! Go Stella
God she seems so lovely. Her music is just so delicate and beautiful, and her voice is absolutely angelic. Hearing the Australian accent in music I like is always a big plus too! I think I'm in love guys 😍
Thank god for KEXP and Six Music. So many great alternative bands have I discovered through these two places. Havens of sanity in a world that feels like it is getting progressively darker..
Just finding this great singer song writer, Stella Donnelly, this morning and am very, very glad about it. Great interviewing by Cheryl Waters, with respectful and thoughtful questions. Thank you, KEXP.
Wonderful! I did not know what to expect. Beautiful singing voice. I love the band's light, yet colourful playing. Perfect for what Stella needs to sing on.
Wise beyond her years and with a voice that goes so many places and speaks to so many things, Stella Donnelly seems comfortable in almost any musical genre.
Met her after one of her gigs last week at a festival. Was really cool to chat for even a minute with someone whos music i love and whos making her way up in the industry. Shes just as real onstage as she is off and it was lovely to see.
Had heard of Them a few months ago with the song 'Tricks' on a local hip radio station! Instantly was pulled in and was intrigued, then inevitably literally started listening to Beware of The Dogs two days before this KEXP performance was uploaded! Wow though, undoubtedly am I blown away by the shear creativity and originality! Keep up the great work KEXP, Cheryl Waters and of course the lovely Stella Donnelly and crew!
Man, I wish Cheryl commentated my breakfasts. I mean, I don't even eat breakfast, but I imagine it would be really energizing if every morning she'd be like, "good morning, today you're having pancakes with a side of eggs and bacon; but I'd start with a sip of that nice hot coffee if I were you, I hear it's a really good excelsa from Spain; anyways here's some great music for you, get your blood pumping, knees bending, and energized for the day."
No offense, I love love Stella, but when did Carrot Top join the band? Dude, embrace the similarity! Love the band, the lyrics, everything. Stella, I truly hope you become what you want to become. Awesome!
Que gran interpretación de "Beware of the Dogs", tiene una voz tan angelical y con mucha energía. Espero ya con ansias su próximo álbum que sale pronto.
Is anyone else sad she said "pious crooks" instead of "pious fucks"? I understand why, but that's such a chilling standout lyric for me in the album version.
Nicely done! Will look for her albums. I’d love see some of these lyrics, they sound better & more thoughtful than often accompanying the vibe in this genre. H/T to Cheryl Waters of course for always showcasing gems like this!

Agreed. New Zealand too! Between Julia Jacklin, Aldous Harding and Tiny Ruins... great stuff coming from that way!

@@matthewmcculloch9320 a little self promotion there eh? Interesting that you guys haven't ever met.
The bummer of living in Seattle is finding these sessions and knowing you missed the show months ago
Not just Seattle... :(
Seriously though, why do they wait three months to upload these sessions?
That's why you gotta turn on your radio!

i saw stella live last night for the first time and couldn't agree with this comment more!!!
perfect description!
I read your comment while the ad was still playing and decided this clearly isn't for me. Backing out after posting this comment, cheers.
I love how she looks like she's really enjoying playing
and the chemistry between the bandmates, the band looks like endless inside jokes and that makes it delightful to watch
0:22 Old Man
3:52 Tricks
7:32 INTERVIEW
14:48 Beware Of The Dogs
18:38 Watching Telly
omg guys I met stella donnelly and you know what that means: I am only one degree of separation away from my queen, cheryl waters
I've been a big fan for years, she reminds me alot of the smiths. Serious subjects wrapped up beautiful melodies. Awesome songwriter.
George with the Sponge-Bob line at 5:43
classic George!

The current conservative government is in the process of dismantling all that great funding.
Eh Canada’s economy still got us sweating

her album is sick as hell, top 3 for the year easy. the title track is insane and her performance here is great!
sounds better than the album version which is already very good
You know KEXP has that reputation that makes every live sessions better that the studio version
@@deathoftheendless001 so does Stella
Every artists featured in kexp*
seeing her live made me cry lol
@@deathoftheendless001 tallest man on earth comes to mind
first orville peck and now stella? you guys are awesome!.
Yes!!!! She’s amazing and super talented, one of my favorite artists :3 it’s so cool to see her here on KEXP, she deserves more attention, her work is fascinating! :)
“You only like me when I do my tricks for you”
Its strange to think that people from other parts of the world havent heard music like this before. So good to see pub rock on the world stage! Go Stella
Been obsessed with Stella's music the past week!!! Thank you KEXP and Cheryl!!!!
me too ^^
me too!
can i please get a stella and mac demarco tour?
Travis Martin YES
@OneSilentGiant right? I hate to be saying it, but I feel the same.
She’s way better than that weirdo
God she seems so lovely. Her music is just so delicate and beautiful, and her voice is absolutely angelic. Hearing the Australian accent in music I like is always a big plus too!
I think I'm in love guys 😍
Beware of the Dogs is one of the best songs of the year! What a song :)
Bewere of the Dogs reminded me of Jeff Buckley...
DRummer's eyebrows rool
your comment has been featured on her instagram story !! @talyav on ig
Thank god for KEXP and Six Music. So many great alternative bands have I discovered through these two places. Havens of sanity in a world that feels like it is getting progressively darker..
5:43 spongebob theme loosing it
Grapetooth should make an appearance on Kexp
Just finding this great singer song writer, Stella Donnelly, this morning and am very, very glad about it.
Great interviewing by Cheryl Waters, with respectful and thoughtful questions.
Thank you, KEXP.
watch Stella on tiny desk if you liked this! you won't regret it!
Jeff Stanfield that’s how i found her, she’s amazing ;)
Yup, I just got into this album - great to see her live here. Quite impish! Love 'Tricks'.
Wonderful! I did not know what to expect. Beautiful singing voice. I love the band's light, yet colourful playing. Perfect for what Stella needs to sing on.
Well put
Wise beyond her years and with a voice that goes so many places and speaks to so many things, Stella Donnelly seems comfortable in almost any musical genre.
Excellent perforance. Great voice. Good lucK. Best wishes Stella.
That chord on the second "leave it alone" is delicious

i knew i recognized their second song! heard it from one of my favorite youtube channels.
Is it just me, or did they fuck this mix up goood :( ? Still love everything stella and KEXP do tho, I don't even know why I'm complaining, fuck me
kexp done her dirty with that thumbnail
i know right
she's a lot better live in my opinion. that's rare.
her presence and personality is just absolutely amazing!!! i saw her live last night and the energy was incredible!!
BORN THE SAME DAY!!! ... Well, she's 19 years younger...
One of the best albums of the year so far and sounds almost identical live, very impressive
Love how three of them are wearing the same nail polish shade.
Ms. Donnelly is just one of them gals that exudes light. What a great performance.
Suena genial, me encantan sus canciones, saludos desde México.
Hmm, what is the tuning on Beware of the Dogs 14:50?
OMG! This version of watching telly is too good. Jack's backing vocals
On the outro, the guy playing the jazzmaster could use a tremolo pedal to spice it up on the picking notes
what a beautiful person
welcome to the stella donnelly band here is your shaker, just grab a bean bag and we'll give you a nod when youre up for harmony.
カワイイ💓
Do you ever just want a band and think how easily you would drop your life just to play with them and tour lol
That bassline in Old Man is so nice
Drummer is seriously in the pocket.
i always thought it was an egg on the cover so now there's so much more depth
Oh damn, wasn't expecting that 'ooooo' outro on Beware of the Dogs. That was beautiful
Whoever decided to use that photo for the thumbnail must be a Hee Haw fan.
For those who don't get the joke, Google Roni Stoneman.
SHE IS A QUEEN
sofi y montse estuvieron aqui
Anyone else notice the spongebob lick...?
The potential in Stella is near unlimited, such a great debut album shows how good she could become
Okay what, hold on, discovering her could be one of the best thing that happened. What a talent!
until today I only knew Tanya Donelly, Stella Donelly is very talented and pleasant too 🇦🇺. Good choice, Cheryl, as always. Thank you👍
Congrats queen, I love you
dang they have insaaaaaane energy playing live that is unmatched vs their studio album
Somebody please tell me how i give more than just one like to the video
ive been waiting forever for this session! and it was so worth the wait 💖
OH SHIT it not egg !!!
She signed my shirt in Boston :)
Lucky you! I met her in Brussels and had my BOTD vinyl signed ;)
zendaya killing on the guitar
Watching Telly is just amazing on this session, the best performance for me. I think I like that song a million times more from now on.
F*cking beautiful high frequency meaningfulness
the audio crew at KEXP is second to none
so glad this was recommended to me :)
that thumbnail is straight up disrespectful
Going to watch her for the 3rd time live this August. Can't wait!
Get her back for Flood!
q buen kexp
No offense, I love love Stella, but when did Carrot Top join the band? Dude, embrace the similarity! Love the band, the lyrics, everything. Stella, I truly hope you become what you want to become. Awesome!
Such a charming girl.
*TOPS*
Her voice sounds like a Chinese bamboo flute sometimes (e.g. at 18:23). I guess that except Cheryl WATERS, her favorite host would be Abbie.
Fender sound
Are they, you know?
Que gran interpretación de "Beware of the Dogs", tiene una voz tan angelical y con mucha energía. Espero ya con ansias su próximo álbum que sale pronto.
Zed's dead, baby
I first heard this on SIRUS. Excellent performance.....thanks Stella. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 🌟
so good!
Fantastic
Like an Eddie Brickell with an Australian accent. Reminds me of the Sundays too
❤❤❤
Is anyone else sad she said "pious crooks" instead of "pious fucks"? I understand why, but that's such a chilling standout lyric for me in the album version.
Killing it Stella! Pleasure to hear you as always x
I love the album and they are utterly joyous live but Stella seems very subdued in this performance. Great version of BOTD though.
Allan Gobey i feel like she picked it up at beware of the dogs. but she was a little nervous at the first song
I love you Stella!!! Wish she played Seasons Greetings though.
She is from the same town as Kevin Parker
Kid County Yup, San Cisco and Tame Impala are also from Freo.
Love Stella's music 💙
Nicely done! Will look for her albums. I’d love see some of these lyrics, they sound better & more thoughtful than often accompanying the vibe in this genre. H/T to Cheryl Waters of course for always showcasing gems like this!
If you like Stella you should check out this chick from Brisbane Hallie she’s insane
