during the interview Sophie reveals that Drinkee was born of her first ever attempt at playing electric guitar. there's something really profound and magical about such an admission. the guitar community itself is mired in this never-ending obsession with speed and shredding and tone. but when you look at the kind of music that actually moves culture and stands the test of time; it's astoundingly simple and bare. where one artist spends 10,000 hours attempting to master their instrument and craft their sound, another simply picks up a used axe and starts plucking away without any real plan or intention. and here she is, touring the world, inspiring millions of listeners. the key ingredient is passion and voice. no amount of time can make up for being passionate and having something to say.
Why can't we have both? The artist who practices for 10000 hours & more, & someone who comes along & starts playing with things intuitively? This pitching one against the other because something seems simple & bare & according to you moves culture, is limited thinking. Passion drives it all & an audience can be moved by all kinds of music. This never-ending obsession you cite is something personal for an artist, which I don't think we can understand just because we start tapping our feet to something simple & bare. And mind you, all kinds of rockbands have travelled the world & tours & made names for themselves way before even Sofi Tukker came into existence. So this comment is kinda partial & limited & it's not the same for everyone who feel a way about Music.
as an brazilian i fuck love how they put the references of the elements of bossa nova and the brazilian roots culture at their songs, they don't make it sounds obvious
What blows my mind is that this is not a group that tours together. 3 musicians sit in and this is what you get? All the feels. How much did they get to rehearse for the set? The talent is just oozing off the stage from every corner.
They honour Brazil much more than a lot of acts from Brazil. I am immensely happy to see the language from my beloved country being used in such a beautiful way.
What a nice surprise to find Jimmy James sitting in with Sofi Tukker! He's Seattle-based, so it kind of makes sense, but now I wonder how long he's been playing with Sofi.
As a Dutchman I don't miss a single concert at KEXP, special how you keep surprising me with great music. And then the high-quality sound, sublime. And Sofi Tukker, what a fantastic innovative music, beautiful the new Brazilian dance song, wonderful to let me go at 67. Thank you all for the fantastic moments that I get for free again and again.
it's not Jimmy James first time on KEXP either; the man is a legendary guitar player who can also be seen with The True Loves and Delvon Lamarr's Organ Trio awesome to see him here playing along with Sophie and Tuck
Innocent people are convicted all the time because of compelling stories backed by "evidence". Don't cut yourself short and believe the story. You are the Cosmos.
Right I totally jump a few dimensions with this playing... u have to to feel it for real the vibration is such a high frequency.. hench the goose bumps repeatedly... its heart... they sing thru the heart..
@@llcinbound5721 I know next to nothing about producing music, but what I do know is that KEXP makes music sound better than the album version, so why don't artists use KEXP to record their albums? Maybe KEXP don't offer this kind of service, but they definitely should. Or maybe they already do and I just don't know.
This, THIS exact version of Sacrifice has to be the best one yet. While those collabs are great, this is on a completely in a dimension of it's own, therefore, would love to hear this single as it is here, since it was simply amazing 😵 If others feel the same way, thumbs up n spread the message towards SOFI TUKKER to be noticed ✌🏼
And what a nice surprise to find him playing with Sofi Tukker! I didn't know they played together, so when the camera was on him I was like, "Huh? Waitasec.. is that Jimmy James?!!!!" Lo and behold, it was he. Made this performance all the better, as I love them both.
i love them so much. one of my favorite things about them is that they're so humble, and so appreciative of what they have. not to mention you can tell they're genuinely friends. not just bandmates.
Serious grooves, great musicians , Sophie's soaring vocals (and Epiphone guitar!), and Jimmie James on guitar-- how can this not be great?? Favorite KEXP performance in many months.
Skerik! -- Dang dood I havent seen you in half a lifetime! Yer lookin good ol boy! Maybe Ill bump into you somewhere out on that endless road one of these days. Maybe on Frog Brigade tour??? 😊 Best, Candice
I love these guys. Spent a couple of hundred pounds travelling to London to see them and, let me tell you, it was worth every penny. Infectious positivity and amazing tunes!
Some more awesome "new to me" music from KEXP. ...SOFI TUKKER...NICE!!! It was awesome to see Jimmy James on electric guitar! He drives several great bands from Seattle. He's a treasure!
Omg!! This is so amazing!! That relaxing freedom vibes only Sofi Tukker can create is amazing!! Can you imagine a collab with Sofi Tukker and London Grammar???? That would be mind blowing!! 🤯🤩
Extraordinary live performance and beautiful interview, thanks so much KEXP! I I discovered Sofi Tukker years ago and I am amazed at every song and dj set. Happy to have enjoyed the dj set at Cruïlla BCN 2022, we'd love to see them more in Europe!
Brazillian soul...omg..Sofi and Tukker, your performance is a burst of energy, you play and sing from your soul, it is amazing..don't ever stop doing that, be yourself and keep creating beautiful music. Sofi's smile can move mountains.. :) 🤗👏👏🎶💙🎹

Sofi Tukker has probably done more to promote tourism in Brazil than the Brazilian ministry of tourism.

What a tool
Its because its Skerik and Jimmy J ❤
This version of Brazilian Soul is simply awesome!
The best I’ve heard so far!!!
One of the greatest songs of the last decade.
A masterpiece 👌🏼
soul que de brasileiro não tem nada kk
(soul that has absolutely nothing to do with Brazil kk)
@@launeto não tem, mas valeu a tentativa! São lindos tentando passar a arte deles.

Kudos as always to the audio engineers at KEXP for an excellent job.
Agree except on Sophie’s vocal microphone. Everything else is very good imho. On the first song.
Yes!

Skerik so smooth and low volume, most versatile sax man around.
KEXP should be treasured like gold! this is like gatekeeper of golden music
No matter what you do in life, you will never be as cool as the bro playing the sax with shades on 😅
I'm sure he has Tim Maia and Jorge Ben Jor as a reference
& his shirt 🤙
Dude after all the times they’ve played Drinkee it still brings a huge smile and to their faces.
So true. As long as they leep feeling it, we do too.
My Chanel od cool.
U cant see mine, blv it its a pure joy, several times around the head and it lasts for a long...
Yeah that out of tune guitar really brings in the flavor
It's just that good of a tune! And also, it can't get boring if they switch it up just a bit every time...
your sound engineer deserves big hug.

Jimmy James!!!!! My favorite guitarist working today! He was magical with the Delvon Lamarr Organ Trio, happy to see him working.
That opening tune is one of the best I've ever seen on KEXP and I've seen a lot after so many years! Love at first sight.
i agree....a few years back i saw on kexp a similar artist amazing artist Bomba Estereo....kepx is on a whole different level.
as a brazilian this performance of brazilian soul made me cry. you’re guys are awesome ❤
I cant imagine my life without KEXP anymore. Thank you once again for an amazing discovery
it's not Jimmy James first time on KEXP either; the man is a legendary guitar player who can also be seen with The True Loves and Delvon Lamarr's Organ Trio
awesome to see him here playing along with Sophie and Tuck
Everytime a song ends I have a a moment where I realise I am not a cosmic entity that's flying around. I am merely a mortal, buying some groceries.

Anytime the True Loves are sitting in, you know it's gonna be dope ♥
I love this video. They should release a KEXP live album, because these songs deserve to be heard by everyone forever.
that´s what i thought too :)
I wonder why KEXP live gigs are usually better than studio works.

Brazilian Soul is one of the best recent songs played in the studio by far.
Always love Jimmy James' nonchalant grooves that sit right in the pocket. Awesome work as always!

i love them so much. one of my favorite things about them is that they're so humble, and so appreciative of what they have. not to mention you can tell they're genuinely friends. not just bandmates.
Yes, I met them 6 years ago at a Grammys celebrity gifting lounge in Beverly Hills. Down to earth, a bit shy.
And it seems like they’re actually in love 🥰
60 years old and simply loving this music - stylish with cool beats!
I have you beat by 10 years ("70"). KEXP is such a great source for new music for me.
It’s breezy. Elemental…
59 here and totally LOVING this!!!!🙏🏼❤️❤️❤️
Didn't know Jimmy James was involved, new fan from DLO3!!
love love love Jimmy James. He just left DLO3, presumably to concentrate on The True Loves and had some life stuff last year
Really, I had no idea he had left DLO3. The True Loves are a favorite of mine too!! I appreciate the lookout and the update. Be safe and blessed

I really love that song, "Sacrifice." I totally get that. I feel exactly on page with that. Great Show! Thank you, Sofi Tukker and Thank you, KEXP.
They came to perform stadium music in a way that suits the organic studio vibe so perfectly. They understood the assignment. 👌🏽
