- Offbeat Magazine and Liveset have teamed up for a special collaboration to bring you one of New Orleans most loved folk bands, Hurray for the Riff Raff. This free and intimate online performance will be streamed live online from the Art House on the Levee in the lower 9th Ward of New Orleans. Lead by Alynda Lee, a Puerto Rican raised in the Bronx, their sound is influenced by the sounds of Classic Country,1960's Rock 'n' Roll, and master songwriters like Townes Van Zandt and Neil Young. Phil Alexander, the Editor-in-Chief of Mojo Magazine, raved that they "have immense potential and seductive power" and named them one of the best bands at SXSW.

Almost a decade later, this is still one of my very favorite concerts on TH-cam. Absolutely fantastic. I heard Rhododendron on The Current last week and had to go listen to more... and more... fantastic.
Yeah there playing in Madison WI next weekend for free but they have so many albums now hopefully there just as good as the first two!
Same I’ve been watching since I saw them at a residency where they played for a week in my town! That was 2014ish. I watch this performance multiple times a year since then haha
Yeah man love it think I stumbled across this when there was like a few thousand views
Same, have loved coming back to this video over the years!
I wonder how many times I've watched this over the years.
I'm back after a 5 year break. When its time its time!
I must be into tree figures for listening to this now!
This is still one of my favorite sets of all time. I’ve been listening for years!!
Completely agree
Same dude. 10 year anniversary just around the bend
Learned of this band from KPCC radio station, sure like them...
Her voice is Addicting !!
I have been coming back to this video for nearly 10 years now. Crazy how time flies and at the same things seem so long ago. Always a reminder to not take our youth for granted.
0:26 Little Black Star
4:00 Look Out Mama
7:54 End Of The Line
12:11 What's Wrong With Me
17:34 Lake of Fire
22:13 St. Roch Blues
28:07 Be My Baby
32:05 Small Town Heroes 👈 (This one has to be my fav!)
The sound guys really did a good job to records and filter all the noise out.
glad to know the resonate hipster is here to chime in
@@skateboards5298 He resonated with me as well!
@Tay - Yes. The audio is great on this video. One of the nice things about the acoustics of the great outdoors, there are no strong reflections from walls and ceilings, and low-frequency resonances are minimized.
8 years later and i'm back here again.
I've booked them to play in Glasgow. Just a few days to go and I can't wait.
I just love Hurray for the Riff Raff, so happy I found this great band. I could listen to her beautiful voice all day.
Heard this bands names for years, literally took 1 minute to be a fan
Add me to that!
right!! lol.. same here
Exactly.
I'm listening to this album this morning. It still comes across as fresh and personal.
his melodies very good ! not every day you hear music like this. Greetings from Argentina
This is very seriously one of my favorite things of all time. It turns off my internet ADD and slows things down
I didn't think beautiful voices like that existed anymore! Amazing band
The fiddle player is a perfect fit for the band. He plays tastefully and never hits a bad note. We were lucky to see them in Charlottesville last September. Hope to see again soon.
He ?? That's Alynda's GF.
Nautilus1972 i wouldn't be so quick to make that correction... yosi is openly transgender and i have not read anywhere that states how yosi identifies... i have not had the privilege to meet these fines people, so i don't know myself.... no matter; they jam :-)
Elyse Peters +Nautilus1972 Semantics over pronouns is the most frustrating aspect of the LGBTQ movement.
Raymond Lee I understand it can be difficult for others to understand all the complexities and proper etiquette regarding LGBTQ individuals... However, it is important to do our best to respect and ease the immense struggle that comes from being born into a body that that does feel like your own and a world that (mostly) does not understand you. Sensitivity and an eagerness to be respectful truly goes a long way, even if we don't always says the right thing.
Gender pronouns may seem like semantics to you but try to consider how huge of an issue it may be to a trans person. Would you like it if people referred to you as "her" (assuming you identify as a "him")? Would you not correct them? I would imagine that any discomfort that mistake might cause you would be greatly magnified for a trans individual. If it's such a little deal to you (and a potentially big deal to them) then how easy it would be to ease that struggle/pain, if only just a bit! Seems well worth it to me. Just some food for thought...
Also, Yosi is indeed wonderful! As is the entire band... I'm so in love, can't wait to see them live! :D
+Beverly Jordan Idk, the fiddle is good but it could be a lot flasheir at parts (on solos). I agree it's perfect when it's accompanying the vocals, but when the fiddle is soloing, I want a little more than just the melody...
What a singer and songwriter. Blown away and this was years ago. New "Life on Earth" album is great.
I was lucky enough to see Ms Alyndra Lee singing solo in Tucson tonight, and I'm happy to report that she's still a wonder, with a peerless voice that brings to mind Chrissie Hynde of The Pretenders.
that's awesome I hope to see them some time. Nearest place I could see them is maybe Spokane or the Gorge amphitheater. if they ever play it.
I will never stop watching this set.
I love 'Look Out Mama' - so addictive!
I am completely mesmerized by this band. Great music!
Came here & didn't know what to expect, it started good & then the fiddle kicked in!!! Can't beat a good fiddle! I can honestly say I liked EVERY single song, the cover song was amazing! Anyone else think she is extremely cute?? Definitely a band I will be following! Thumbs up!!
I Love this band !!! This is my fav of them live. Alynda has such soul.
Just ridiculously good guys! I'm glued from beginning to end.
Her vocal vibrato is amazing!
Agreed.
Best 36 minutes I've ever spent on youtube.
Absolutely bang on ..
This is my all-time favorite band. Alynda Segarra has the most beautiful, unique voice I have ever heard. It lights inspiration and introspection. When I saw Hurray for the Riff Raff live, tears streamed down my face the whole show. Thank you for putting out these amazing tunes. And of course, it's out of the badass City of New Orleans! Keep rocking!
I just adore her voice. Mesmerizing and authentic. Bravo
I have listen to this concert 100 times, and i could play it 100 more times. Its really cool
Wow. Just Wow. What a great sounding band and an excellent video. And this gal behind the guitar is breakin' my heart.
Such a fine band with strong material! Been a great 36 minutes, look forward to many more! Thank you for the post.
Accidentally clicked into Awesomeness
You’re telling me. It’s like having your breath taken away. Goddamn.
Still my fav iteration of the band...what a gift this session is! (btw, I did get the album on Amazon after hearing this too :) )
This is definitely the best this band ever sounded. It's not that their new stuff is bad, but this hits me so much more.
Yep, i didn't even knew that this band iterated so much but .. feels like the best they ever were.
Why Amazon? Clearly you need to listen more closely to the anti-capitalist, pro-people lyrics of their new music
Fantastic set! I'm not normally a country fan, but after seeing them open for Alabama Shakes earlier this week, I have changed my mind. Hurray, indeed.
I love this. I'm from East L.A., gang capital of the world, but I'm gonna share your music with my students. They need to hear this.
Arturo Lopez So cool to be sharing musical traditions with students who may not have ever even heard them!
I just this band on Letterman--never watch but fell asleep after Big Brother and heard this band on a fluke...LOVE THEM! TY for posting--I will be buying their albums. They are so refreshing and so GOOD.
They're badass now...and then. I'm glad I caught them early...and glad they've blown up. Can't wait to see them in San Fran.
Awesome tune and performance. Almost feels like I'm in New Orleans.
No one and nothing brings my heart more joy.
I love this band and their music! I can listen to them for days on end. Wow!
Listening to you guys can always bring me out of my darkest thoughts.
I always come back to this.. oh so dang good!
Love her sound!!!! Great band!!! GREAT MUSIC!!
36 minutes? I spent all day listening to this on repeat.
She has a great voice
I love this so much! Alynda is so great, I just love her stuff.
my asumption..this womans voice is so soft so cool so heartfelt so heartwarming so so cool!!!
Saw them in Nashville this week - they opened for Amos Lee - and was really impressed with Alynda and the band. It's sometimes hard to get into an opening act when your unfamiliar with them more than ready for the main event but they kept my attention all the way through the set. Lead singer is very personable.
Sweet sounding waves. Excellent voice by the main singer. The violin adds a sweet folk sound and the drums and bass give the music it's roots.
390K views and no comments? Guess it's up to me to say this is pretty darn fabulous.
First heard of Hurray for the Riff Raff a couple of days ago. Loved your music right away. This is my second time listening to this webcast. You guys are awesome!
Love her voice so much.
This is the coolest thing I've seen in a long time
First time hearing you guys... and I got to see it live... :) Saint Rock Blues = amazing! GAHHHHHH LOVE IT!!!!
That soul filled goodness! I could go on and on... Keep on writing, never stop!
Just found and heard of y'all today! I could listen to y'all all day!
I didn't listen something like that since I heard Ella Fitzgerald by first time.
19:12 - can you imagine this band doing a collab with Pearl Jam on this song.
Brain melting epic.
Loving that Alynda Lee. What a grand voice!
don't. just don't. Keep Eddie Vedder away from her please.
Always brings me back. Thank you
Wow. How am i just hearing this band? Love them so much
