The Dear Hunter - Shame - Audiotree Live 

Just discovered this band. Seriously, I'm shocked that they aren't more well-known.

They all know exactly what notes to hit at exactly the right time. And the bass player is totally in the zone.

My favorite is Nicks face as he plays. I love watching drummers as they play in general, but he is just so damn talented and expressive as he plays. Very fun guy to watch. I also really enjoy that Audiotree pays pretty equal attention to all the members, not just singling out Casey and maybe snapshot of everyone else the whole time.

I love how happy the drummer is :)

omg that snare sounds gorgeous

unmatched live performance almost a whole decade later

this may be the best non studio version of a song I've ever heard! it even sounds better than the studio version. love the emotion of it.

Casey sings his heart out every single song. Nothing short of amazing songwriting and talent.

I cant sleep on these guys....its so so crazy how unknown they seem

This is beautiful music all around. Super tight instrumentation, interesting chordal structures, great lyrics, and amazingness.

That voice is AMAZING

Man do I love that last chorus. That gorgeous change of bass line for the first note, the intensity of the vocals and how each instrument add up to this moment. Damn.

Damn, what a gift... seriously, one of the best things I have EVER heard...

I wonder why people are so uninterested in real raw talent; they would rather listen to something that has no soul, no meaning, and something that is effortless with a beat. I would rather listen to something that grabs you and pulls you in deeper into the emotions of a true artist. That's why I truly appreciate musicians that put their all into their music, and let us have a taste of their talents.

my most favorite song off the album!

still some of the best there is, terrible that they are still so unknown, x

How can anything sound this awesome like the fucking snare....perfection!

My jaw dropped

insanely good. would love to hear casey score a film one of these days

:') my God , im crying, this is grandiose

The drummer is casey's brother for those of you who did not know

That call and respond of string section really pulls this song together. Fucking butter.

I can't stop with this video. Everything is so damn perfect. My only complaint is that we only get one shot of that beautiful Jazzmaster that's pulling out some super tasty licks, but everything else is so amazing. And man does that kit sound good. Snare drum goals for sure. So good.

I am in love with this these guys. Please, please come to Scotland.

I saw them live years ago and it was honestly one of the best concerts I have ever seen. I watched in awe and became a life long fan.

Holy Frickity frackity. these guys are amazing. I'm astounded that I've never heard them before. Just, just, just holy crap.

So underrated. One of my favorite vocalists. I’ve been a fan since The Receiving end of Sirens. Also one of my favorite karaoke songs. His range makes it fun.

they are one of my favorites

Such a great band

just saw them live yesterday it was the most amazing performance I've seen yo

what a brilliant musicians

I saw them play at the masquerade in Atlanta with btbam.. they deserve more recognition.

SO GOOD

this song is amasing good job

Wow!

Just knew this band a few weeks ago when BTBAM announced they would be touring together, they're so damn good!

its an absolutely SHAME that this super tight and clean live performance of a masterpiece song to get less than 200k views in 10 years! i love you guys sooooo much! 🩶🩶

Just saw them live at Houston!! fucking great band

Wow, just wow....

Fuck me that snare. God damn.

What a hauntingly beautiful song

The bassist looks _exactly_ like Shia LaBeouf. How has no one mentioned that? It's bugging me, 'cause every time he's on screen that's all I see. But anyways, amazing track - really stoked to listen to more of this band.

Man this band is kick ass.

It's like all the best parts of Radiohead and Elbow combine.. amazing music

That drummer is adorable :D

Sounds of sky and hell, fucking nice! Listening from Colombia.

I love the fact that Chris is on the 1st Violin

Just heard of them? You have quite a bit to catch up on, have fun! I wish I could have another first chance at listening to Casey and TDH. Such a great experience.

Now i just need to hear them in real life.

@thedailyp00per, you're one of the few people I've seen that remembers his original project. I'm glad I'm not the only one!

The Dear Hunter Shame You had them fooled, And I'll admit you had me too, But you're awfully chique, To act so clean, I... Can sense a shake, An oscillation Your voice, The closet's full, But the door's swinging open, Shame. That you couldn't suffer the blame, Cause now it's the only way That you could find the fix, to mend. It's the art of deceit, With elegance you plead, And captivate, And never was there doubt in my eye. With the silent sound, I see you were standing still in a silent calm, With curtains drawn, Cursing at the light, Shame. That you couldn't suffer the blame, Cause now it's the only way, That you could find the fix the nightmare Shame. That wouldn't suffer the blame You know it's the only way That you could find the fix to Mend these lies. You now leaving anything back in this world for us So don't go taking anything back from this world but, Shame That you couldn't suffer the blame Cause now it's the only way That you could find the fix to mend, These lies.

Fucking perfection

The Dear Hunter is great, but I still think his sound was amazing with The Receiving End of Sirens

This shit is great.

Lol I was just thinking, the dear hunter should do an audiotree live sesh....

~Lyrics~ You had them fooled, and I'll admit, you had me too But you're awfully chic to act so clean I can sense a shake, an oscillation in your voice The closet's full, but the door's swinging open Shame that you couldn't suffer the blame 'Cause now it's the only way that you could find a fix to mend It's the art of deceit With elegance, you'd plea to captivate But never was there doubt And I heard the sirens sound as you were standing still in a silent calm With curtains drawn, cursing at the light Shame that you couldn't suffer the blame 'Cause now it's the only way that you could find a fix to mend this Shame that you wouldn't suffer the blame You know it's the only way that you could find a fix to mend these lies You're not leaving anything back in this world for us So don't go taking anything back from this world but Shame that you couldn't suffer the blame 'Cause now it's the only way that you could find a fix to mend these lies

Wizard of Oz

Go back to treos!! Best band ever

W fucking ow

Who is the drummer?

Is this really live though? I want to believe it but when I see his use of the microphone, it is inconsistent. His mouth position is not relative to the dynamic in the vocal. Typically a singer will back away from the mic when the lyric calls for a more aggressive tone to help even out the level then they move back in but here in this video, it is all over the place. Do you think the video is edited and that some of the takes are put together to make one piece? It sounds fantastic and is damn near exact to the studio cut. I'm a big fan and love these videos but it just looks a bit off to me.

Soundgarden

Casey would do a sick Justin timberlake cover.

does the singer have something in his nose?

a solid singer.. smooottt band but it's drowning out his singing too much.. love the keys!

big man. Big beard.

Samwise Gamgy/Sean Astin on piano

Reminds me of old Coldplay a bit
