    They took the song, and just wrung every last drop of soul from it. And the audience a cappella part was maybe the highlight. Live music gets no better, and there's not much better in life than live music, so...

    It is moments like these that show why LFH will produce pure musical brilliance. Take a classic song, add audience sing-a-long, an improvisational jam, along with Aoife's Crooked Still band mates,
    then enjoy the listening bliss they create. Love the dual fiddling (goosebumps).

    Being in the house at Town Hall that night was simply magical. Sitting in the 5th row singing low harmony when Chris turns and calls the audience; like the house was just another member of the band. That is a thrilling, you are not going to forget This any time soon, maybe ever, kind of moment.

    Twas a serendipitous morphing of their two bands - Chris's AND Aoife's, on a perfectly ancient song, & Chris knows just how to wring every drop of fun out of a LFH encore including audience participation in a soulful a cappella slow ending. but does he stop there? No! 2, 3, 4 jumps back into a righteously rollicking rocking instrumental finale, O! M! G!

      @@estherleedavenport5273 yes, Esther Lee- I was there in the live audience that night, and much to Chris's delight, someone shouted out this request spontaneously, in the moment. Chris replied something along the lines of "well, someone's been thinkin'!" and proceeded to coordinate the band in preparation of playing this song in this style. The only word that comes to my mind for what happens at the Town Hall is: magic.

    • @andyroth619

    Ended abruptly, but appropriately, on an instrumental masterpiece.
