I’m 50, and when I was off work two days ago, I had an empty house alone , kids and wife at school, and sang and strum these amazing songs to the top of my lungs
Just have to say. I LOVE THIS. I know this isnt a terribly popular band which only makes it all the more special. I LOVE ALL OF YOU. You are special people. SO FEW bands today touch me in the same way as this does. Ever since I saw this Ive been back time and time again and Ill keep coming back to this video until Im 90 years old. This band deserves more attention than I feel theyre getting. Its merely a symptom of living in todays confused and lost world. "Other Lives", if you see this, know that YOU ARE appreciated and it would mean a great deal to me if you keep tapping into the well from which you pulled up these three magical and moving songs. Finding this band marked a uniquely strange time in my life.
musicisbrilliant There is plenty of serious and sincere music out there today, you just have to dig it out. You won't hear it on the radio. I just discovered this band a few days ago and I'm glad I did. This is beautiful.
I don't care how many times I've listened to this, I am forever more in love with Other Lives. What an excellent pairing of musicians! I adores this set!
This band is currently my favorite and has been since I first heard Tamer Animals in 2011. I saw them in Chicago (Lincoln Hall, Feb 2012) and Grand Rapids, MI (Nov 2012) and would've gone to see their last Tamer Animals show in Chicago again if I could've made the trip. They are incredible live and, by all accounts, the grand finale at Lincoln Hall on Dec 8th was amazing. I'm so looking forward to hearing what they do next!!
i saw this band open up for delta spirit at the double door many years ago when they just had their ep. they were amazing then and continue to amaze me now! i've been a fan since! seeing them live tops any studio recording! can't wait to see them next saturday in chicago at lincoln hall! keep it up other lives!
And just like the wind blows into the great unknown, We're on our way, we're on our way. Moving west may bring us better days. We're on our way, we're on our way.
saw Other Lives open for radiohead a few years ago, found this when I got home. this 3 song set continues to move me.. profound, is all i can say. thank you
I just saw them at Cafe du Nord in San Francisco. I can't believe you can see a band this good at such a small venue. They were excellent and I expect they're going to surge in popularity. I think they're opening for Radiohead on the upcoming tour.
Perfectly true to key and rythm - and yet: all spirit and soul you could wish for. Real vioces, real instruments. It sets them far apart from all the cheap computer generated pop that crowds radio stations these days.
First time I have heard this band... It's absolutely fantastic. If they played with a slightly faster tempo and louder, it would be out of this world good.
I need to learn Dust Bowl III on the guitar... Just saw the Band on Gurten Festival, it's perfect music for me, sadly not many people were listening/enjoying...
Après avoir entendu un de leurs morceaux sur France Inter pas un jour ne passe sans que je les écoute ils m ont accompagné vers mon road trip from Alsace to Ouessant Islande Finistère de grandes émotions en ferment les yeux on peut se transporter au milieu de l atlantique ou dans la forêt d Exmoor Tout simplement splendide
They used to be called Kunek back in the day. Look up there album on TH-cam, it’s called Flight of the Flynns. You can tank me later. They have always been a wonderful group of people.
Oh I was in the dark age Searching for the ones in my mind. I'm so far away But I had hit the ground runnin'. Steady as you go, I don't mind. I'm still here today. Oh spouting hymns and buzzing rhymes And forever talking when it ain't so kind. But it feels like forever on the run. When your mind turns to fiction. And I had took the long way. And I was in the heat, I don't mind, I'm so far away. But it feels like forever on the run. When your mind turns to fiction. Nudging the ghost from the skull. And a night without sleep. Vibration comes first to the head and last to the feet. Spouting hymns and buzzing rhymes And forever talking when it ain't so kind. But it feels like forever on the run. When your mind turns to fiction. So long, So long..
fun fact: The lead singer here was part of the original All American Rejects band for the first album they made while in high school. Looks like they went in separate directions....

musicisbrilliant This speaks to me in a BIG way. By far my favorite tiny desk concert. Keep it up, guys!
musicisbrilliant Im back again to say... I cant say enough. This is real, true music. Its very rare to find any these days, but here it is.
musicisbrilliant By the way... I know Im being annoying. But Id like to express how I feel about these three perfect tunes.
musicisbrilliant Its serious. Its sincere. Unlike ALL other music today.

You can definitely hear the "How to Disappear Completely" influence but they also have their very own sound. Absolutely love.
One of the few bands I can honestly say their live versions are much better than their produced versions. Love it!

This is so good. I've been looking for something new for the longest time. So glad I stumbled on this band. Pity it took me so long.
Just saw them in Tampa last night. Very good band. I was impressed.
Incredible. There are no words...
Loved getting to see them play all the time back in my college days in Stillwater Oklahoma!! Go Pokes!!!
I waited tables with the drummer when we worked at Eskimo Joes.
These guys are really awesome. One of the best rock bands ever!
I love this band. Used to watch them at Mike's College Bar in Stillwater, OK back when they were Kunek. Good times.
Still my favorite band.
I miss the members that have gone on to do other things. They’re still making great music though.
same same. This composition of Other Lives will live on forever in my playlists.
I love this band time presence feeling me my life unbelievable

I was sooooooo sad when this ended. I could listen to the elegant drone for hours... days even.

I want more knee slap beats and tapping the guitar. This is great.

And just like the wind blows into the great unknown,
We're on our way, we're on our way.
Moving west may bring us better days.

that second song is ****ing awesome. I imagine them playing it while all marching through a big flat field of wheat.
Estos si eran muy buenos conciertos de tiny desk 👌
thats awesome man, this is brilliant stuff. WAY TO GO OKLAHOMA!
Great music! Congrats!
Yes! I love this band!
trop mimi Other Lives , j'adore ! ! ! ! !
Best Album ever !
Good fucking grief. So great. They really are better live than any recording I've heard.
love this band!!!!!!!
Perfectly true to key and rythm - and yet: all spirit and soul you could wish for.
Real vioces, real instruments.
It sets them far apart from all the cheap computer generated pop that crowds radio stations these days.
DUST Bowl III is so good......
God damn this band is so good.
Great band. The lead singer is quite charming.
One hell of a performance.
First time I have heard this band... It's absolutely fantastic. If they played with a slightly faster tempo and louder, it would be out of this world good.
I like that term...probably will catch on sooner or later...
Really liked the music.
This is fantastic.
Fleet Foxes and these guys.... man some amazing music....
¡Los amo!
Incredible band.
I need to learn Dust Bowl III on the guitar... Just saw the Band on Gurten Festival, it's perfect music for me, sadly not many people were listening/enjoying...
What a band.
Après avoir entendu un de leurs morceaux sur France Inter pas un jour ne passe sans que je les écoute ils m ont accompagné vers mon road trip from Alsace to Ouessant Islande Finistère de grandes émotions en ferment les yeux on peut se transporter au milieu de l atlantique ou dans la forêt d Exmoor
Tout simplement splendide
Wow... these guys are so tight live... :o very few bands have that potential outside the recording studio...
Vraiment très cool cette musique, j'adore
So good!
Best first heard of them 15 yrs ago on Blogotheque channel...
The musicians here are
Jonathon Mooney - Guitar/Vocals
Jesse Tabish - Bass
Colby Owens - Percussion
Jenny Hsu - Callo/Autoharp
Josh Onstott - Violin/Keys
Jesse is guitar and vocals
Amazing!
I love this.

Ad ognuno il suo … ma questi sono veramente favoriti
GRANDIOSI

The Best.
pure genius
Oh I was in the dark age
Searching for the ones in my mind.
I'm so far away
But I had hit the ground runnin'.
Steady as you go, I don't mind.
I'm still here today.
Oh spouting hymns and buzzing rhymes
And forever talking when it ain't so kind.
But it feels like forever on the run.
When your mind turns to fiction.
And I had took the long way.
And I was in the heat,
I don't mind, I'm so far away.
But it feels like forever on the run.
When your mind turns to fiction.
Nudging the ghost from the skull.
And a night without sleep.
Vibration comes first to the head and last to the feet.
Spouting hymns and buzzing rhymes
And forever talking when it ain't so kind.
But it feels like forever on the run.
When your mind turns to fiction.
So long, So long..
my Oklahomies. wonderful.
Obsessed
this is love
So thankful I got to discover them live at Radiohead!
one word...sick
SICK

J adore
OMG!! Ringo at the drums!!
@Moonchky I bet that was amazing! They are opening for Radiohead...I am seeing them in Miami on Feb 27th!
Damn nice to jam scales to.
I love how they used the Harmonium! You usually only hear them in Indian music.
Jenny Hsu 🎻❤
I just saw these guys open up for Radiohead this past weekend. Very good band.
fun fact: The lead singer here was part of the original All American Rejects band for the first album they made while in high school. Looks like they went in separate directions....
