This is mixed, filmed and performed amazingly. Incredible production.

[@KarapetyanGagik]

I always compare modern artists with Miles Davis in terms of creativity, you have something Moses Sumney!!! keep pushing boundaries of creativity ✨✨✨

[@pointlessNYC]

This crowd is wack and I’m upset 😭 he deserves the best

[@flexaeterna]

His natural (non-falsetto) voice should be explored more.

[@garvie]

I love how some songs Moses is like "just because you can doesn't mean you should" and then the next song he will be like "but I can and I will"

[@midorijaeger]

Thank you so much for this. Your artistry, musicality, originality and intelligence really transport me to a place that no other artists can take me to. Feels like an extremely special privilege to experience what you do. What an example to be setting. Congratulations! X

I’ve lose a chance to see Moses perform in live (in France) i can fully feel the emotions behind my screen, imagine being at the concert❤️😭

[@laurent2978]

this performance made me realised that my soul is listening to this instead of my ears. I feel new emotions I’ve never felt before because every concert/film is a new Moses Sumney. I’ve seen you in North Sea Jazz and want to see you again. What I love is that every song has meaning that elevate with your own life experience ❤️ this band is amazing too. Thank you so much for your work 🇧🇪🇧🇪 🙌

[@inkarlcerating]

his voice is transformative.. like butter sliding to a cold pan for one second then it morphs into a rich warm soil the next… a cacophony of melody, very healing.. nourishing even. ❤❤❤❤ Moses so many of us depend on your mere existence

[@silvi2451]

Moses you are such a great inspiration for me these days

[@lastdaysguitar]

I'm in my 60's and have not heard a voice that inspiring since Philip Bailey in Earth Wind & Fire. I will be streaming this a LOT.

[@Apo023]

this guy <3

[@MusicOrLoseItTV]

Doomed is such a beautiful song. Doomed

[@spiritofzen7022]

An incredible artist,the way he uses his voice as an instrument is remarkable. He really deserves all the success coming his way as he is beyond talented and unique

ACT I: Logos

[@AntonymesMusic]

The most important artist out there at the moment. Truly transcendental. Can't wait for him to come over to the UK and blow the fuck out of my mind!

[@cholst1]

After watching his previous film Blackalachia, I thought to myself heres a "new" Bjork level musician (as in an absolute creative monster!). How fitting there is a Bjork cover in this set! :)

[@luccasmuniz]

I'm crying thank you for existing 😭💖

[@nak3581]

Moses, the theme song to my spiritual/creative journey has and always will be you. You are meant to change the world, and I only believe that because of how you’ve changed mine. I pray we meet one day so we can create together.
