Glaswegian synth-rock trio CHVRCHES perform their single "Clearest Blue" from 2015's 'Every Open Eye' at SPIN's 14th annual day party at Stubb's during SXSW 2016. Watch more from SPIN at Stubb's 2016 here: bit.ly/22UwlYx
+Marie T I was watching performance from 2014 and now this. It's so cool to see how she improved so rapidly over the course of 2 years. Can't wait to see them in July!
I love her energy on stage! Hope to see them one day. The audience in the end standing still (except front row) while the best dancing part comes on is hard to understand, I would loose my shit and jump, dance and cry happy tears probably!
They played at the Laneway Festival in Brisbane Australia earlier this year, and I'll tell you now, their live performance can't be done justice unless you're there to experience it.
Good performance, looks like they made some improvements in technical aspects of the voice: echoes, EQ and stuff. (It ould be also due to the recording, anyway, is just an impression)
The fact that Spin added their own effects and then took a shot of someones phone as it was taking a picture of the band sums up my hate for them pretty well.
What the heck is going on these days? I saw these guys at Coachella W1 and lost my mind dancing. Why are all videos on RU-vid for Chvrches filled with boring hipsters who can barely muster a head nod or raised hand!? Perhaps that is what I was surrounded by at Coachella but I was just too wrapped up in their amazing sound to notice. All I know is I was sweating like a mother fucker by the time their set was done! A+ !!!!
+getnasty08 I'm from Scotland and they recently played in their home town at The Hydro in Glasgow. Now that was a awesome gig... The place was absolutely rocking!!
Going to see them Oct 4th at Hollywood Forever Cemetery and I can't wait!! If anything I will be dancing my ass off. I hope my crowd will be better than these fuddy duddies.
Why are concert crowds so dead these days? Is it because our food, pills, media, phones, and government have us so dumbed down? By the way that girl is dead sexy. Great music.
+Farfy McDoogle Indie concerts, there are usually not much dancing. Most ppl go to these concerts cuz they enjoy the music not because they enjoy to dance. It'd be sorta like rocking out at a classical performance.
LOL near the end it has the backing vocals playing over the PA, it sounds exactly like it did when she was supposedly singing 'live' .. all acho and effects and clearly processed.. wtf.. i love their music but this is just not performing, it is 3 people on a stage while some music plays
***** no you misunderstand me, go to the last like 10 seconds and listen to what she is apparently singing live and how processed it is, that's obviously not natural singing. I love the band BTW but the 'live' performance is a bit of a sham
***** there SHOULD be a difference between studio and live. If you want it to sound exactly like the record then why even bother going, just play the record at home. The whole idea behind a 'performance' is seeing/hearing humans actually do something, not listening to artificially made sounds. Then again this is not a traditional 'band' so that's probably why we are having this discussion
frarfarf what a stupid comment How the hell do tou expect her to make all them noises at once? Do you have some secret recipe or something? If your expecting to not here any extra shit then why are you letting them play over sound systems? I mean you talking about humans doin something themselves right? There style of music isn’t meant to sound super real it’s meant to have that strange airy echo-y type sound to it her voice is able to do it but they need echoing and reverb to try and at least emulate what they release in their albums
it occurs to me that she probably sang "Shape by the clearest blue" once and then they just looped it using technology. A good example is the comedian Reggie Watts, where this is his entire routine. Because it didn't sound like playback from the album version to me.
poor musicians. stupid camera Generation crowd. it must be frustrating for These great band, playing without any reaction of the audience. I would like to kick them out of the concert. live Music should be only for real fans. grees from Germany to the chvrches and fans
