- It was such a phenomenal show, and this was the final song of the evening!! Avi said the band wanted to do something special for his Texas fans, since he had to postpone the show for 3 months. They worked up this arrangement just before getting to Texas and only performed it at the Dallas, Houston and Austin performances. (Sorry for the bad filming; I had to hide the camera so couldn’t see where it was pointed.)
My first Avi concert, and he is even more amazing live! This video doesn’t do the performance justice at all. Sorry for the terrible filming…I had to hide the camera. 😅
I'm amazed you were able to get away with it at that venue. When Avi played there back in 2019, the venue had employees walking around through the whole show looking for people trying to record. I put my iPhone face down on my lap and recorded the whole concert audio (which actually turned out nicely). I'm glad I did, because it was a great show, especially "Get Down".
@@charlottevan_8 We were expecting not being able to record or take photos but then someone asked and we were told just no flash. Sabine and I were doing video of Born in CA and the manager told us it was distracting others but we could take pics. I REALLY wish I could’ve gotten “Get Down” bc it was FIRE!!! The last three songs I just turned on the camera and held it against myself so it wouldn’t distract anyone. 😊
@@5thgentexan95 Good for you! I'll bet he let loose at the end of "Get Down" like he did there in 2019. I've got the whole concert on my UA-cam channel, and I'd be curious for you to compare that performance of "Get Down" to this new one. Here's the link, and "Get Down" is at the 57:00 mark ua-cam.com/video/DRvwNGMFs9I/v-deo.html
@@charlottevan_8 Thank you! I’ll check it out! 🥰
@@charlottevan_8 just listened and I’d say it was very comparable. Those bass notes he hit after the first verse literally shook me - I wasn’t expecting it and didn’t realize it was him at first! 😂 The ending was very similar, and he was dancing like I haven’t seen in a while, so I’m really hoping someone else happened to get video.
Little known fact…..when Avi Kaplan sings…his voice stops time…….❤❤❤
Every. Time. 💚
Avi's voice just melts my soul! 💞
Same! 🫠 🥰
He has one of the best vocals I have ever heard so beautiful chills from head to toes
You know I was raised in the Hanford California area just about 20 miles were Avi was raised he is so awsome I wish I could see him live oh my gosh
@@pauletteaguilar1394I really hope you get to see him at some point. His live show is AMAZING!!
I know he has done a lot of Christmas music with Pentatonix and he is Jewish but I would to hear his version of Christmas songs like this. His voice is just so beautiful and I never get tired of it.
Agree 100%! A solo Avi Christmas album would be amazing!
I believe his father is Jewish, but not his mom. They grew up celebrating both, and sung carols, there is a video from when he was in high school. He actually arranged several of the Christmas arrangement during his days with PTX.
A few years ago, his brother Joshua shared a video of the family sitting around their parents on Christmas singing this. Avi was playing and Joshua, Esther and their mom were harmonizing. The family seems to lean much more toward Messiah.
People are not aware, but the U.S. has tens of millions of Hebrews who believe in Yehoshua/Jesus. Masses of us do not call ourselves Jews but we are of the tribes and were raised Christian.
Avi once said his first concert was to a DC Talk concert. They are a Christian band.
I am of the tribes of Judah and Levi and I was raised in Christianity. My father was actually a Baptist preacher.
Avi once said the only Jewish training he was for his bar Mitzva, and later he would like to learn more about it.
According to his surname, he could probably be of the tribe of Levi. The priestly tribe.
People forget that Jesus is a Jew. Many Jews are coming to recognize their Messiah.
@@laurenkop1019 I would love to hear him sing some Jewish Melodie’s! Avinu Malkenu ❤
I love Avi's voice. His singing makes me feel happy, even if I wasn't.😊😊❤
It’s one of the many things I love about his music. 🥰
Interesting arrangement for sure. Dude has an amazing voice and I am glad to see he is still following his dreams as a solo vocalist/musician.
Was worried I'd never hear him do another Christmas song. Absolutely gorgeous. You go Avi!
Agree! 🥰
Perfect voice for one of my favorite songs. Amazes me when Avi sings Christmas songs, but he sings them with feeling and soul.
I bet God is up there saying wait just a moment, Avi is singing- Listen to him !! Avi is tremendous in both the WAY he puts the words, he makes the songs with even more meaning/feeling.
Then saying, “ I knew there was a reason why I created him” I’ve always felt that AVI could be a secret weapon for world peace
He leaves me breathless and stunned.
The sheer beauty of Avi's voice can bring me to tears more than any other singer. In only seconds, tears were streaming down my face. Thank you for sharing this amazing performance, and thank you Avi for sharing the gift of your beautiful voice and music with the world. 💖
You are so welcome! Yes, we had many tearful moments listening to this amazing artist!! He is just brilliant and so full of emotion himself that he draws us in and is so captivating! 🥰❤️
That is so TRUE the WONDERFUL SOUND OF HIS VOICE CAN MAKE YOU CRY
oops writing that made me tear 😊❤
My sentiments exactly. I first heard Avi on an NPR very early Sunday morning interview last June, 2022. I had earphones in so as not to wake my husband. When the first clip of one of his songs came on during the conversation, I bolted upright in utter disbelief what I was hearing. I had never heard such a profoundly beautiful voice before. I spent the next week downloading every song of his I could find. I am still mesmermerized.

Thanks so much for posting this. I missed the concert in Houston. This song soothes the soul. Thank you Mr. Kaplan!
❤️🥰
Thank you for sharing this.
His voice is beautiful! He can sing anything and it would be unique and special.
I am waiting for the EU 2023 Tour. Seeing him performing live would be a dream come true.
I truly hope that works out for you to see him. It’s definitely an experience I’ll never forget. ❤️
@@5thgentexan95 I can't wait. I can't wait. Going to a couple of Avi's shows would be a celebration of life and my way of appreciating and thanking him for his talent and the healing music. It helps me day after day to lure my terminal cancer to stay put, hide in the corner, not lift its' grotty head. Out of my way.
I can't wait to hear all the enchanting, haunting and deep music that Avi Kaplan is to create. No point of me dying. Not just yet.

Oh hey! I was the young man at table 4! Hope you're doin well.
Hey there! Great show, right? Did you happen to get video of “Get Down”? I really wish I had filmed that one.
@@5thgentexan95 sadly no 😞
Wow, Avi went country???
As a solo artist, Avi is usually in the folk/Americana genre. In the video description, I mention how Avi and the band wanted to do something special for his Texas fans. He only performed this song 3 times (at each of the Texas shows) and they came up with the arrangement before arriving in Tx. He sang O Holy Night the month before at a live event, and it was a different arrangement.
Oh, ok. Did not know that. Thanks for enlightening me. I appreciate your reply. Take care and be well. 🙂
I was there and they said it was alright if we took pics and videos if we didn't use a flash. I guess you didn't hear them. That show was fantastic.
Yes it was amazing! We were told that we could film too, but the manager came up and told us to stop during the first song bc it was distracting other people. 🤷🏼♀️ That’s why I only recorded the last three songs and had to hide the fact I was doing so.
I am crying! Recently I mentioned in a TikTok that I would love to hear him do this song, and he did! Thank you so much for sharing this.🫶🏻❤🎄
You are so welcome! Thank you for requesting it of him! It was such a special gift, and I’ve had this on repeat since the concert. He just owns this song, and I love the country vibe. 🥰
This is so beautiful, it gives me chills. Avi & band did an amazing job with their version. Have you suggested this video to the "reacters" on youtube? I think most of them would really love Avi's version. So touching. 🥲
And it was even better live!! You can tell where the phone cuts out some of the bass. I have suggested it to two or three reactors but will try a few more. ❤️
