Jacob and Dodie absolutely adore each other and have collaborated multiple times so her looks at him are totally authentic. Jacob is absolutely your favorite musician's favorite musician. His mind is working on a level that mere mortals can only dream of.
I barely knew about Jacob when I first saw him at the Kennedy Center two nights after this concert. Then it was him, his band, the same NSO orchestra and the Aeolians choir behind them. I didn't know it then but Jacob does at least one audience choir at all of his concerts. I couldn't believe it. Later the Aoelians singing World O World which was also stunning. His Little Blue Mahogany sessions also has an informal audience choir of fans local to London. As for Laughey, it's funny to me that so many people haven't heard of her, either given that she is by far the biggest name in jazz in the world based on streaming views. She's the latest to be called the savior of jazz although what she does is largely 20th century pop a la Ella Fitzgerald and Chet Baker. She's a classically trained cellist among other things. Her fan base is heavily younger females. Like most English speakers, you mangled the pronunciation of her name which is a common one in Iceland. Anyway, you should react to her as well as World O World recording session with musical notation video. In fact, for lots of great artists you can react to all the people Jacob has collaborated with from Dirty Loops to Tori Kelly (Bridge Over Troubled Waters) to Lawrence the Band. For Jacob himself you'll want to check out All Night Long, Moon River, Hideaway, Makes Me Cry and All I Need with Mahalia. To start.
@@bryanleggo3489 Thank you so much for the comment. I will certainly listen to more of Laughey. I've listened to the Tori Kelly Collabs but will check out the others you mentioned. I started this channel to expand my musical knowledge, so appreciate the help.
“How’s he managed to find a crowd of people that can all sing?” Apart from the fact that his fans are mainly musicians, everyone can sing a scale if we’re given a reference. Doesn’t have to be perfect because we essentially even each other out when you have a large group like that. Experiencing it in person though… surreal, truly
