Lauren is a beauty of a singer and she fits 100% into the Band - in my opinion SHE is the spirit of the Band! Her very natural fine voice gives us something that has gone missing for quite a time in the music industry - she is a very natural jung girl and NOT a Melodyne manipulated pseudo singer like most of what we hear today in almost any styles. Wish the music industry had more such natural talents!
the fact that she is insanely attractive may be colouring your overall view Manuel, but then again, subjectivity is a handy card to play. People have naughty thoughts about her I'm sure. You can play that card too. I think she is one of the most beautiful women I have ever seen.
Yeah, I just saw them a couple weeks ago. This video was the first I’d ever heard of CHVRCHES back when it was released, and it’s awesome to see how far they’ve come. Still dealing with technical problems though! Lol
frizzybob Lol? Are you ok? You do realize this comment was in response to all the people who say her voice is bad. Simple is just my description of her voice, but I meant it in a good way. I actually do have a cover on my channel, so go ahead and check it out. I'm not Billy Idol, but most people like my voice and I've sung in front of an audience of 3000 before, so don't tell me how big my balls are. My voice has also gotten a lot fuller and steadier since the video on my page, and my range has an increased dramatically. I've only been singing for about 2 years, and my video is several months old.
This my favorite performance from them. The small crowd, the intimacy between them and the band, and the fact that things go wrong with the equipment just makes it all genuine to me. Chvrches might not be my favorite band of all time, but I always find myself coming back to listen to them.
Having live performances on TH-cam without time markers feels like listening to a cassette in the age of CD so: 0:47 We Sink 4:20 Lies 9:01 Gun 13:05 Recover 18:20 Under The Tide 24:07 The Mother We Share
I found chvrches with Lies, then a plethora of great music spilled over me. Lauren is a goddess, her voice is angelical, by far my new number one frl!!!!
Kryptonite in a bad sense. Beautiful cherub she is, the Leftist in her soul is as ugly as it gets. This is the only concert I listen to. The rest...meh...
I got The Bones Of What You Believe free on google play one day and oh man, I'm glad I got it. I've fallen in love with Chvrches's music. And of course Lauren
Can we just take a moment to talk about her absolute beauty? I've never seen such beauty in my life, it's indescribable....She must literally be an angel because I've never seen anything as beautiful as her my entire life...
This is the best version of these songs especially Lies. I like how we can hear your real voice without interference from machines, that is the best part of this and I’m sure everyone else agrees. Keep it simple lol.
Amazing! i love how they have clearly decided to do what they do and not try to be likable over themselves. Don't know their individual names but the dude in the hat is jamming the way he knows how - Need more like that, her voice is (to me) soo unique and awesome, blown away! . Very talented group of musicians.
Her voice, their ability to synthesize their songs... they're a great combination of skill and balance of talent. What a great display. Also in love with the human touch of personal interest and semi-(maybe feigned) nervousness from the band. Fan of them, and all the friends I've introduced their music to agrees.
Fantastic live programming here. And of course... Lauren. I cannot get over Recover. It might be right for me right now except I do not need the comfort and I do not need him.
Dolores O'Riordan, Harriet Wheeler and Sinéad O'Connor have an heir apparent as far as I am concerned. Her voice has a haunting quality to it and the subject matter lends to a deep musical experience…Keep it up Lauren!
This performance is on point. An almost perfect CHVRCHES show. Officially have to see them in concert now. Side note: I feel so bad for people who look at a performance like this, and all they can do is piss & moan about how much the DJ headbangs during the song or speculate on some aspect of the lead singer's physicality. You're a joyless sort of people, and I want nothing to do with you.
I'm not going to waste time mixing it up with haters... who amazingly enough have the time to abuse people they are jealous of, but don't have the time to notice their country committing genocide in play daylight... WOW, priorities... personally, I'M DOWNLOADING IT NOW, it's worth blowing some bandwith on to me... I like it, the lyrics are brilliant and poetic, she's got a voice that melts, and that's all that matters, good musicians, good songs with meaning and rhythm... yep, it's actually worth stealing!
I truly, deeply believe that Chvrches is one of the greatest bands from the last decade, alongside Alt-J, Foster The People and PBS. Also I believe this is such an iconic performance, that last jawa noise is priceless.
GENIALES.... SIMPLES,HUMILDES,TRANQUILOCOS Y TE DAN ESA SENSACIÓN DE QUERER CERRAR LOS OJOS Y GIRAR Y GIRAR HASTA DESAPARECER Y APARECER EN OTRA DIMENSIÓN Y CUANDO ABRÍS LOS OJOS LOS VES A ELLOS EN VIVO EN UNO DE ESOS SHOWS Q EN LA VIDA SE PODRÁN OLVIDAR.... GE-NIOOOOSSSS!!!!.... LAUREN HERMOSA Y GROSA :-)....
Cannot wait to see Chvrches next week in Brixton. Not seen a live band for ages, so this will be a real treat - love them all, their passion, their music - the whole performance!
Relax! It's not like that's all she's good for . I mean, what's not to like about a very attractive woman chasing the dream of making music and touring .?
***** As specially when said girl is as talented as Lauren..... I really really like the fact that they are not using porn to sell their music :) This is good good music :)
Most adorable rock star ever. In love. Plus this 80s-90s synth pop throwback shit is fucking bumping! Anyone who compares this band with Purity Ring or Grimes is a silly human. Just because they all have female singers does not mean that they are all producing similar music.
Love these guys, They've got a really good thing going, Great synergy as a three piece. They come across natural and down to earth, no pretentious bullshit going on. They write well crafted, perfect pop songs. Album ordered!
Thank you KEXP! I really appreciate you putting this online. This band is fucking awesome. And man, that lead singer is something else. I would also marry twice for her.
for those people asking if the guys are really playing the instruments? the answer is yes! they are called or known as a electronic band> if you don't know what electronic band is, Google it!!!

Obrigado mano ;-)
Thx 😥
She is seriously so cute....
i watched this over 50 times in the last 4 days. i love chvrches
The way the 2 guys bop around is actually really infectious, I've found myself doing it when I get really into it lol
After seeing them 6 times live over past 8 years I love going back and watching their early performances. Love them ❤

the same thinking and feeling like you ...thx

willzer808 I agree, she is ethereal!
willzer808 I wish she did a photoshooting, there are almost no pics of her.
Five years later, it's amazing to see how far Lauren's voice has come. She's gotten so good, her voice is so clear and expressive
Yeah, I just saw them a couple weeks ago. This video was the first I’d ever heard of CHVRCHES back when it was released, and it’s awesome to see how far they’ve come. Still dealing with technical problems though! Lol
The opening riff to "We Sink" is everything about why I love CHVRCHES.
Her voice isn't bad, it's simple. It makes the music. I don't know how to describe her voice, but it's adorable, and you all know it.
Idd, it's adorable and moving in a way.
Noah McDaniel I can describe her voice for you:
Perfectly ordinary. It's the "girl next door" of voices.
Type blue archives :)
Alan Jagger blue sky archives*

Guy on the right puts some real passion in his work.
Yep a bit too much 😂
He crossed into a cerebral palsy zone, so I guess that's intense.
Her voice is the most soothing thing in the world
She looks incredibly cute between 00:01-27:36
Made my day.
true 😂
Accurate
10 year challenge.
Who would have thought it, 10 years just like that.
Definitely my favourite band for the past 10 years.
❤
I was wrong...the multiple vocals are actually beautiful together. Please forgive me. This performance is magical sounding !!
This my favorite performance from them. The small crowd, the intimacy between them and the band, and the fact that things go wrong with the equipment just makes it all genuine to me. Chvrches might not be my favorite band of all time, but I always find myself coming back to listen to them.

Jason Arnold isn’t that supposed to be a good thing ?
Ty a lot
Reason 37 why Lauren is the most adorable girl in the music industry:
Jawa impressions.
Lol, I was wondering what the hell that was. Awesome.
not gonna lie. fell in love after this video...
23:21 ON POINT!
Adorable!!!
I found chvrches with Lies, then a plethora of great music spilled over me. Lauren is a goddess, her voice is angelical, by far my new number one frl!!!!
The way she says "I never believed, but I see it now" @ 9:33 gives me the chills every single time...
Lauren is so talented & unique ,she's like Kryptonite for most men & some women ,makes me weak on the knees
Kryptonite in a bad sense. Beautiful cherub she is, the Leftist in her soul is as ugly as it gets. This is the only concert I listen to. The rest...meh...
いろんなライブ動画あるけどこれが一番好き。写真写り、音、尺、全部最高！
背景暗いから寝落ちで見るのに丁度良いし
this is awsome. CHVRCHES is a great new influence for me I love it
I really enjoy this band. I especially like how they incorporated technical difficulties at the 14:28 minute mark.
She seems really down to earth. I like seeing that in singers, actors, and athletes.
and earthlings ..puny human! [The Hulk]
the technical problem is the best part from this session, creating more interaction and u get more of the live vibe...
I got The Bones Of What You Believe free on google play one day and oh man, I'm glad I got it. I've fallen in love with Chvrches's music. And of course Lauren
Undecided on whether I like the music, but I have to admit, the timbre of the singers voice and her range suits it very well
Nobody can say that she's not a singer. Euphemism of the year.
The most incredible band in the genre.
11 years and I still like this performance
Bro this concert was LEGENDARY
Discovered Chvrches on Rdio.. They got something very special going on here. Great music.
Whoever handled the mixing on this recording deserves a raise.
I'm in total mad LOVE with this girl!!
I just love how she handled the 'technical problem' situation so well.
Lauren's voice is so fantastic. I wish they had live drums though! That always makes live performances better.
Lauren is so beautiful and has a wonderful voice!
Too cool for you, boy.
shut it you wanabie Scotsman!
I get lost. Awesome Shows. Thanks KEXP
no matter what they say, i love CHVRCHES
Who the hell are *they* and what are they saying!?
The transition from Jawa-speak to The Mother We Share was well played. Extremely well played.
Absolutely in love with this band!
Can we just take a moment to talk about her absolute beauty? I've never seen such beauty in my life, it's indescribable....She must literally be an angel because I've never seen anything as beautiful as her my entire life...
The people in the crowd don't seem to be super into them which sucks because if I was there I'd be incredible pumped. Love this band!
Agree suppose they got the tickets for free? Lol. Or there to see a main act?
This is the best version of these songs especially Lies. I like how we can hear your real voice without interference from machines, that is the best part of this and I’m sure everyone else agrees. Keep it simple lol.
They sound so 80's...good stuff
Amazing! i love how they have clearly decided to do what they do and not try to be likable over themselves. Don't know their individual names but the dude in the hat is jamming the way he knows how - Need more like that, her voice is (to me) soo unique and awesome, blown away! .

she‘s so cute

Also in love with the human touch of personal interest and semi-(maybe feigned) nervousness from the band. Fan of them, and all the friends I've introduced their music to agrees.
it's so cool how the synths sound just a little bit different, like they tweaked it on the album, even though it's clearly the same actual synths.
It's all sampled, the main focus is on Lauren's vocals.
One of the best alternative bands around today. Original hooks to their songs. Deserves more exposure!
absolutely brilliant. this performance officially made me obsessed with chvrches.
that guy dancing in the front is my new role model
Thumbs Up if you get shivers during the intro... always get it up the back of my neck!!!!
Good that their sound engineer knew the songs well enough to recognize a problem in the system with almost no visual clues.
I actually really liked the times when the guy sang 😁
I did not get tired of watching, listening and dancing this show! I saw Chvrches at Mexico 2016, and hope to see you again when it's safe :(
Really good band.Just heard of them now.
I heard of them this month. Can't believe they were they hidden from me.
Lauren has grown so much as singer! The Lauren of this old video, was a bit shy, now I feel she's much more confident, that a plus for the band.
Fantastic live programming here. And of course... Lauren. I cannot get over Recover. It might be right for me right now except I do not need the comfort and I do not need him.
Dolores O'Riordan, Harriet Wheeler and Sinéad O'Connor have an heir apparent as far as I am concerned. Her voice has a haunting quality to it and the subject matter lends to a deep musical experience…Keep it up Lauren!
Absolutely obsessed and loving it!!!
"When it all scuffs up" Love it! Lauren has a beautiful voice, I could listen to her all day.
This performance is on point. An almost perfect CHVRCHES show. Officially have to see them in concert now.
Side note: I feel so bad for people who look at a performance like this, and all they can do is piss & moan about how much the DJ headbangs during the song or speculate on some aspect of the lead singer's physicality. You're a joyless sort of people, and I want nothing to do with you.
Omg Lauren is its amazing beautiful and sing like the birds just BEAUTIFUL

i so much love her voice, and brilliant music of this two stylish guys (:
Did anyone else hear 'Mia' when she said 'We Are' in the beginning of the first song?
Great band to see live! So much fun to dance to
SHE'S SO CUTE OMG
Damn this is nostalgic. Fell in love with the Band via this performance almost 10 years ago!!
23:48 pense que se abrió un archivo de musica en mi notebook jajajajaja, excelente banda ojala sigan! mi descubrimiento del 2014! aguante chvrches!!!
thank you for bringing this back
Cindy Lauper meets M83, it's brilliant.
Loved it, watched it right through. Think i'm in love.

This band and lorde are here to save music.
So good, and I found by accident...beautiful!!!
Oh man , Lauren is SUCH a doll ! A man can only dream can't he ?
she will destroy you for that comment. I guarantee it.
Douglas Phung i don't know what this means
Relax! It's not like that's all she's good for . I mean, what's not to like about a very attractive woman chasing the dream of making music and touring .?
***** As specially when said girl is as talented as Lauren..... I really really like the fact that they are not using porn to sell their music :) This is good good music :)
Check out Blind Melon and love Nico, but also think about what you asked. I want them to succeed so BAD.
My reach is global
My tower secure
My cause is noble
My power is pure
24:02 Must be my favorite part 😛
ローレンが愛らしすぎて、最後までばっちり楽しめる、いい映像
She is as nerdy and adorable as it gets -- I love it. I would not be surprised if she was hiding elf ears underneath that hair!
What an amazing combo of superb, poignant synths and mesmerisizing, forest fairy nymph voice!
Most adorable rock star ever. In love. Plus this 80s-90s synth pop throwback shit is fucking bumping! Anyone who compares this band with Purity Ring or Grimes is a silly human. Just because they all have female singers does not mean that they are all producing similar music.
dan cannon I feel sorry for anyone who listens to purity ring and then this and really can't see a difference
Laurens voice makes me cry...and it feels good
couldnt have ended with a better song :) 1,000 likes from me
Love these guys, They've got a really good thing going, Great synergy as a three piece. They come across natural and down to earth, no pretentious bullshit going on. They write well crafted, perfect pop songs. Album ordered!
We Sink song of the fifa 14!
Her vocal work is impeccable, I really enjoy, even live are so great as in digital. Great!. :D
"a godless hurricane of kinetic pop energy"
Thank you KEXP! I really appreciate you putting this online. This band is fucking awesome. And man, that lead singer is something else. I would also marry twice for her.
Is she an actual fairy.
Like she straight up is the closest thing humanity has to a mythical woodland creature

ShadeyBladey I redact my comment. Bjork probably wins it
На мой взгляд, я считаю это выступление просто уникальным !
Спасибо ! 🎉
Is it just me who has watched the entire video more than once?
☝🏻
No😊
It has replay value for sure
i love these WEQX sessions. I go back to them all the time for at least a dozen bands. i may skip through conversations
As a rocker through and through, I am really enjoying this band.
Lauren is like a tiny little music fairy :3 I love her
for those people asking if the guys are really playing the instruments? the answer is yes! they are called or known as a electronic band> if you don't know what electronic band is, Google it!!!
