Thank you to all our fangs for coming to our 2022 Summer Tour which is where all these footages in the video are from. We hope you can share this kickass original song "Not Afraid" which we wrote back in 2019 but revamped and extended during our live shows. We appreciate you all for the wonderful support and we can't wait to finish our 3rd original album. Stay tuned! ROCK ON & ROCK HARD

My brother is the original metalhead in my family. After accidentally watching and listening to your music videos on RU-vid early this year, I am now a full-fledged metalhead.
All of Liliac's songs and videos are great, but this is my favorite. Melody's vocals are out of this world. And Sam, Abby, Ethan and Justin are powerful in this song than ever. This tune is awesome, hard rock at it's finest. RORH.
Wow! What a song! Showing off everyone's talents! And everyone's passion for Rock N Roll! If you dont love Liliac you don't love Rock N Roll! You 5 are definitely NOT AFRAID! 👍👍🤟🤟
My goodness that screem gives me chills! Oh girl you have a voice so many singers past, present, and future would kill for! So amazing and talented! 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘

If you look at old videos of you guys, they are still awesome, but watching you now just shows how much you all have grown as a band. Your music and sound is something that I hope will always be relevant. I know you are keeping rock alive and that is so important. Thank you for all your hard work and for all the awesome music! 🤘❤️🤘❤️
AMEN! Lisa, I just went into all the old videos of when they were little kids , to include their little dance videos, thier pier days, and thier progression into the LILIAC BAND tay are today! I sent each and every one of the videos to a dear friend In ST.LOUIS so she could see just what I was talking about! Well she watched the videos, listened to the music, and is most definitely a new fan! I kept trying to explain to her they this isn't just a flash in the pan band, but an actual success story and a journey of a humble, honest family's love and appreciation for good Rock music! IT IS THE LILIAC EXPERIENCE!!! now she gets it! I'm 60 now, and followed for over 4 1/2 years now! But this time has gone by way to fast! Watching how fast the CRISTEA family has grown and matured in thier musical abilities is jaw dropping!!! And I am truly proud and happy for them, my kids are grown and doing thier own thing's now, but it's still touches my heart to see the LILIAC BAND do so well!!!!
I am just overwhelmed! As a lead vocalist who has a 3 octave range...the control she has over her FOUR octaves....I don't know of anyone, alive or dead, who could match, or...(Lmao) surpass her! But.......CANNOT disregard her band ( family members), as they're ALL phenomenal as well, but....those pipes!! WOW
As an add to my post....;Girl has what EVERY rock vocalist has dreamed of having, but in SPADES!! Not just the vocal range and precision, but stage presence....and....what a gift to have her own siblings throwin down the jam behind her!!! ❤️❤️
WOW....KICK ASS.... This young band is grabbing the torch of rock and kicking anyone in the balls who stands in the way. Superstars in the making. Rock on guys....this 62 yr old guitar slinger knows greatness when I see and hear it. Come see us in Florida!
WOW!!! I was at the Jergels show in Warrendale, PA, and saw a few clips from that show in here! I've watched every live video out there from this tour (and others), have all the albums, seen all the videos and all the reaction videos out there. So safe to say I've seen it all from them (so far). But THIS...THIS video and live rendition of this incredible song has completely blown me away!! Just when I think that Liliac is so good they can't possibly get any better, you go and do this! I love you guys so much! You'll never know how much your music and videos have meant to me over the past year as I went through cancer, surgery and chemo. Recovering, being pumped up by your music and positive energy, has been everything! Thank you Liliac, again!!! ♥️🙏🎸👑💪
Lori, hope your doing well!!! Your kept in prayer !!! I believe good vibrations from music can stir the soul and trigger physical responses from and into our body's, I'm 60 now, and haven't followed a music group in 35 years, until I stumbled across LILIAC! There's something about them that draws me to them and their music! Thier music just gets better and better! I've never been to see them live, hopefully someday, but I've followed now for 4 plus years and it's been a thrill to see how they've grown! The energy they put out is positive and fun! And it helps to make my day! Glad it helps to make your as well! Peace from Texas! RO&RH!!!
Melody's vocals was what got my attention initially when I saw my first Liliac video years ago. Since then, I have realized that the entire band is extremely talented at their own instrument. However, the vocals on this song are just out of this world. I'm so glad that the future of rock and roll is safe.
Damn!! Everyone of you are bad ass!!! Thank you for saving Hard Rock!! I've been a Hard Rocker for many years!! Y'all are one of my top favorites!! ROCK ON & ROCK HARD! 🤘😝🎸🎶🎶🎶 Not Afraid!!
These kids should be the biggest band in the world right now. They are that good. Each member just gets better as they go. Ethan and Justin look awesome. Not like they didn't look awesome before.
their problem is , their to hung up on the dio thing, and might as wel be a dio cover band, if u cant have ur own style and music without always bringng up dio, most bands have influneces but they have their own style, and songs
@@johnpierce2095 Hey they obviously have a lot of respect for Dio. So do a lot of other bands. You do know Ronnie James Dio is a major influence to Metallica right?
@@johnpierce2095 Dio is a major influence to a lot of bands. They do have their own style and sound. Their original stuff kicks ass and proves that. They just love Dio. I love Dio so do millions I don't see the big deal.
I love female vocalists of all types. You are my favorite. This is my new favorite band. I am 62, and this band will be around long after I'm gone, and long after they are.
Just found Liliac about a week ago while falling down a You Tube rabbit hole and have been hooked since. What I first expected to be nothing more than a novelty cover band is clearly not what you have evolved into. The musicianship is stunning. The vocals are mesmerizing and the guitar....damn near world class.
This guy gets it, they are a band that has amazing musicianship, writing, energy, and are Independent that just happen to have started out doing Covers and now will have 2 Original LP's and an Original EP.
Welcome. I think that's how many of us discover them; especially those of us on a Dio nostalgia kick and find their superb Dio covers. I like this particular Liliac tune, along with We Fight We Fall and Vertigo. I think Sam the guitarist channels a bit of Morello in Vertigo and the bass line is great. Speaking of "near world class," that solo in We Fight We Fall and the intro to their live Mars, will cement that thought.
Saw the band outside of Chicago and they were terrific. Met the band after the show and became an even bigger fan; they were charming, sweet, and a little bit silly.
Drum companies have got to be on the brink of sponsoring Abigail with kits of massive creation. What higher level of advertisement could be conjured. The equipment used by Liliac should be a huge selling tool. Sawtooth knows. They aren't stupid.
Love you guys sooooo much, I'm 69 years, been rocking since I was 4, I play piano, guitar, just purchased a bass last month, that's all my brain hears now. Thank you guys YOU ARE THE BEST, YOU ALL MAKE ME CRY HAPPY TEARS EVERY DAY!!! HOPE I GET TO SEE YOU IN VEGAS!!!!SAM YOU REMIND ME OF JOE SATRIANI AND ERIC JOHNSON, WHICH IVE SEEN ABOUT 30 TIMES EACH, YNGWIE MALMSTEEN??? DO YOU KNOW THESE GUYS?? LOVE YOU GUYS!!! KEEP ON!!!
Really loved filming this for you guys and had such a great time being on tour! I love how this came out and can’t wait for the new album to be released because I know it’s going to be epic!! 🥰🥰
Just discovered Liliac by accident. Haven’t stop listening to them since. Melody’s voice is like no other. Vintage metal at it’s best. This family is so incredibly talented. Bigger things to come. Everyone contributes to their sound and success. I watched some vids from when they were kids playing on the pier and you could see the talent then. Melody and Abby… beautiful ladies rocking out!!
I always listen to the vocals first, in any band, and Melody’s singing has improved exponentially since I discovered y’all. The rest of the band has risen to the same level. Wish y’all come by the Raleigh, NC area.
You all have done nothing but get better and better every single day, I went back to 2015 and "Wild Thing"and to this video right here... And I can't believe how everyone has absolutely mastered their instrument far far beyond your years, Mel... your vocal STRENGTH is jaw dropping Sam is an absolute BEAST on guitar Abigail has become a Professor of the kit, and has so much fun as the heartbeat, Justin has grown up so much in just a few years and makes it look so easy on the keyboard, and I saved Ethan for last... holy cow man, you went from this little kid who was smaller than his bass and had to really focus so much on each and every single note you were playing to NOW feeling your parts, it flows from your soul now and you no longer have to THINK, and your rhythm guitar playing has become so remarkable, you ALL are so incredibly talented and have gained so much momentum there are even more great things coming your way any day now, and it's going to blow up and become this unstoppable force that the entire 🌎 cannot get enough of. ✌
Watching this for the thousandth time and I have to compliment MeloDia on her makeup skills. ✨Putting glitter on her cheekbones and forehead was so smart because you don’t notice it until the light shines on her face the right way and then it looks like she’s covered in fairy dust. 🧚♀️HER magic is what makes it iconic! Can’t wait for the Carnival tour🎡 (I think Liliac: Freak Show 2023 has a ring to it) I’ll be the the sparkly one in the front row! 🤘
This is one of my fav Liliac tunes and I still LOVE the original - very clean and "perfect" in my eyes. It is very hard to improve a perfect studio recording. This sounds much more like a live version with it's own tweaks and additions, not a step down by any means, but more of a step sideways because you can't top what I considered perfection in the original. It was short and sweet and didn't repeat a hook for 5 minutes like many bands do. Papa Liliac is still a "Rock God Producer" because in many of the recordings (including this one), it's not about what you hear, it's about what you don't hear - aka simplicity in its finest form allowing what does get recorded to be even more dynamic. This is a well done video as well as audio ..... congrats guys & gals! Rock on and Rock Hard!
Oh My God! Melody you are blowing my mind Just when you set the bar so high for the mere mortals of Earth. Then you come out with the song Not Afraid. And then you set the bar even higher. So I'm starting to think nobody will ever surpass or be your equal as far as a vocalist artist designer. You're a very special lady. And I thank God and your dad Papa Liliac for having you guys to show the music world what perfection really is. God Bless All of You Guys.
A whole lot of great hard rock and metal classics have been written in the 80's ... it's so reassuring to know that MORE classics of such caliber are written today. Great song, great performance, ROCK ON!
Wow. There's something really special about Melody's voice. Usually, those high-pitched shreaks are a torture for me, making me twitch. But not this time. Even though they might have pierced the fabric of reality, they actually were almost a pleasure to listen to. 👍🤘😲
If Liliac aren't doing global stadium tours within 5 years I'll be shocked and disappointed - I want to see them in Friends Arena in Stockholm with 50000 screaming fans.
