Went to high school with this kid. His talent show appearances were always the main show. Truly a beautiful artist.

It feels weird to get hyped about something so chill

[@bullerfugl]

Green twins is an absolute banger

[@willhammondjr]

Nothing alternative about it...this is straight up blue-eyed soul! #nickhakim

[@morrisman]

i genuinely love how little nick hakim actually plays his guitar

[@ultratone]

Agree... everyone in the band leaves so much space for each other, really adds to the groove.

[@Wetsealover]

A tiny desk and a KEXP upload, what did we do to deserve this? Nick is too damn good!

[@nthatomalope]

Exactly what I'm thinking!!

[@jfr543]

he's a genious

[@Purpadurpolis]

That drum set sounds so fucking perfect.

[@joybird144]

Green twins was breathtaking 😞literal perfection

[@Guillotineman]

KEXP has the best sound engineers. This sounds so much better than the NPR or the Pitchfork performances.

[@RuiLopesOutrorui]

@Alex W Yea i came to comments cause it wasn't sounding right lol

[@superrantam]

I don't agree either. KEXP is good, but to me NPR's mixing is killer. Josh Rogosin (the guy behind) answered question about his mixing on Reddit. Give it a read :)

[@AllisonMlitwa]

Cheryl Waters you are a phenomenal woman

[@superrantam]

Great songs. The bassist (Kyle Miles) is simply amazing. So groovy...

[@bronzekat]

I love this man's voice. So talented.

[@Aburaishi]

[@artisstreet1747]

This is my favorite Alternative artist! Seeing them pop up in your feed was such a nice surprise! Thank you so much KEXP!

[@oliviakelly9398]

Can we talk about how gone the pianist looks? i freaking love this performance, and him looking high off his ass just makes it so much better

[@n.ee.h]

I was well disappointed that there were no harmonies in two of the songs but it was still so amazing!!!

[@appapapa697]

that was a very awkward interview but great music though

[@ryancapelli]

woof. 👏

[@seanarooni]

can you guys edit out the shot of the CF7 that pedal is a secret, thanks

[@thejoshuahatcher]

[@HUGO-xp8tv]

What pedals is the guitarist using? I need to know!

[@siwilliams5022]

Sounds like a mix of delays, reverb and maybe a POG to give it that organ sound

[@SewSawThief]

@@siwilliams5022 to my ears it's eqd organizer

[@marissarangel8630]

I quissed.

[@del3164]

[@samgillies9502]

Univox high flier

[@Barncore]

It's like a more lucid Mac DeMarco

[@justanotherbotanist]

gave me more lucid Mike Posner x)

[@yourkingdomcomeyourwillbedone]

Sounds like a more soulful Matt Corby to me

[@Barncore]

@@yourkingdomcomeyourwillbedone I can see that for sure. Although i'd say Corby is equally soulful

[@yourkingdomcomeyourwillbedone]

NickB33 Yeah agreed actually
