The Oh Hellos on Audiotree Live (Full Session)

The Oh Hellos perform on Audiotree Live, July 13, 2014.

They're like an orchestra… like violin, 2 banjos, 2 drummers, accordion, bass, more guitars than I can count, capos in all frets and a choir of singers... I'd just expected that to sound muddy and and undefined but it's all really miked really good and sounds great. The exuberance and power of this group is... incredible!

I would do unspeakable things to watch The Oh Hellos live

[sarahwhite]

I appreciate how, though it seems Tyler is more naturally talkative or sociable, he makes sure to invite Maggie to speak, so it never seems like she hasn't contributed as much as he has to their music. He does it even more in newer interviews but he was already doing it here. It's good, because though Maggie isn't a shrinking violet (I think they actually said in their recent podcast interview that she was always the more rebellious sibling while he was the more people-pleasing one), she does tend to keep a little more out of the spotlight between songs or in interviews. He makes sure she gets her say anyway. I think it's all of a piece with the way I've seen him look after the band and the audience in a few videos, checking up on how everyone's doing. I don't know them personally, but they really seem to have an aspirational sibling relationship.

came for the music, stayed for the mustache.

I know I’m a few years late but I just wanted to say that this band is amazing. I cant even describe it, their music is magical. Love this band so much.

[finchblue]

I just about died when they really belted that one chord in Dear Wormwood (you know the one, how could you not)

I love the Oh Hellos

[frazil]

Found them through that "soldier, poet, king" animation meme going around and I'm never gonna leave.

[sarahwhite]

This must be almost the best they've ever sounded! The fuller instrumentation and chorus in "Wishing Well" made me feel real awe, that violin gave "Hello My Old Heart" an incomparably uplifting air, the second female voice harmonizing with Maggie's adds so much, the DRUMS! Great recording too. I'm so grateful for the invention of headphones. I'm only 20 minutes into the video but already felt too moved not to comment.

[jvespalin]

happy to report that my 2-month old loves this. Good kid.

[saffrons]

There’s like 100 people in this band. Carry on.

[deevinay]

Maggie and the girlie in that adorable yellow sweater and hair cut ( Edit: just learned her name Amber!!) are so gorgeous!! Such talented and beautiful women!!
(Also: i have a huge crush on Matthew the fiddler😍)

[shortyduhop]

This host catches C.S. Lewis references. Bring him back, Audiotree.

[zacharydaniels]

Seriously guys.. The more I hear the more LOVE!

[FrancisBarton]

The Oh Hellos are my favourite two bands ever

[TomLumPerson]

absolutely incredible the full mountain of sound they produce. Also props to to audiotree crew for making every voice and instrument sound so so so good it is really unbelievable that a video can capture such a feeling

[stGeorgiaGirl]

Bumped into them at a Tiny Desk concert. How did I not know about this band before now? They just kill it.
