The Drums - Full Performance (Live on KEXP) 

There was a period i was obsessed with the drums. Looks like I'm gonna be again lol

No matter how much time passes, The Drums will always sound beautiful. Nostalgic.

0:32 Heart Basel 5:57 Days 11:22 Book of Stories 15:11 Blood Under My Belt 19:53 Money 24:09 I Need a Doctor 29:29 Head of the Horse

Met him once, he told me " you're attractive" , that's a WIN WIN for me

This is PURE British sound! It's like listening to The Smiths, The Cure, Simple Minds, etc., all together. Love it!

Jonny looks so much younger than he actually is... I believe he is 40 now and he was 35 in this performance, that's amazing!

Jonny's voice literally astonishes me. He sings in a way that is very rare. idk if he sang in his families church choir or not,but the man is a genius with his voice.

This sounds exactly like he looks

Perdí la cuenta de cuantas veces he visto este concierto ya... es tremendo

What an exquisite band, holy shit. No matter how time passes, they keep setting the bar out here for indie surfy bands.

how can i be so in love with a man that dances like that

I Need a Doctor is pure gold.

2009-2013 Was the best era for The Drums. I think after Connor left there was a few years that the live act was awkward and overall not good. This lineup now though is really fun and interesting. Although not having Jacob is a bummer. I do like this opportunity now for Jonny to showcase songs that are written by himself. He is a genius when it comes to creating guitar pop.

2020 who still listening

His voice has improved so much, watching live vids from 2012 and watching this now is like night and day. The Drums rock!

The Drums make me think of every nostalgic 80’s movie I’ve ever seen. 🖤

This is truly one of the best bands out there today

I've been to The Drums concert a few days ago. No need to say it was amazing. But the best part was when I was waiting in front of the doors 1 hour before the concert, and still no one was there (actually people were in the bar nearby). And suddenly the doors opened in front of me and Jonny appeared with his boyfriend Keon. I was like holy shit. I felt like my legs couldn't support me anymore, lol. Then, instead of greeting them, or asking for a picture, I just turnt away from them haha. Best reaction ever. Then I watched them go away, I was happy and sad at the same time. Weird feeling.

He's got a great voice, & a Bjork shirt to boot!

Who else listen to this every morning before going to work? (Love the drums, greeting from Honduras)

god portamento is one of my favorite albums, so much talent

Smiths Division

I seen The Drums live this year (2023) in Chicago at the Metro and I must say they were the best!!! Johnny did not disappoint and delivered on every song! BadaZz 😎😎😎!!!

god they sound nice

Johnny is a true gentleman. Amazing show in Vancouver right before this recorded performance. Such moves this guy.

The Drums 😍🌞 I'm 24 going on 25 I've been loving them since I was 16 !

he trully gives from heaven

Man I can't say thank you enough to KEXP. They're always bringing some great live performances/bands. And I can't believe it's already been 3 years since this aired and decided to check it out. The Drums were one of five bands I listened to the most during high school after this. So glad I got to see them (or rather Jonny) touring Brutalism and now going to see them play Portamento fully live. Much love to everyone else here who loves The Drums :)

this is my favourite concert ever!!! best sound, best songs, best feelings

I was very fortunate to have met Johnny twice and he hugged and kissed me on why cheeks. I melted and just thinking about it makes me wanna cry all over again. I love u guys so much.

I just discovered this band a few weeks ago, and I am obsessed - amazing!

Days is such a beautiful song...

La voz de Jonny como ha mejorado con el tiempo, realmente me ha dejado impresionado. Se extraña al grupo original pero no deja de ser una extraordinaria banda. Perú los ama chicos !

Not a huge fan but man they are good live. That equals lasting power. His voice is fantastic.

I love you this band, my favorite band

Sounds like a official version. That's amazing cause now many bands sounds different in concerts. I can say definitely one of the best bands that I ever heard

Love his voice ❤

Can't get enough of them, always sound good can't get any better than this

Days is absolutely phenomenal tune

Fun fun fun band live! One the best times of had in L.A. was buzzed at The Drums, dancing (if you can even call it that) like mad.

Book of stories came out so epic in this performance. Wow

this was my first time listening to the drums and was blown away

Right beh right behind you love them too to the fullest

What a beautiful and mystical concert they gave us, God bless you and long live music.

Always can't get enough still listen to them till this day they're the best

i know im 3 years late but i love this band sm

The Drums will ALWAYS be my favorite band. This was an amazing performance.

This band reminds of the happiest period of my life. I hope they will come to russia soon ❤️

This is great. The Drums are one of those rare bands these days that just seem to get better and better each release. Love it :)

Son los mejores,mi mamá ni se dio cuenta de que era música en vivo ♥

Recently got into them(primarily portamento) and didn't realize how great of a singer he is live

Bringing back the 80s. Love it.

And the days go by...

I was listening to Pulp just now and something about the drums in one of their songs made me think of another band. I had to dig in my saved songs forever to find the band. It was these guys. This ig going to drive me insane until I find the exact song. (Pulp - My legendary girlfriend)

I love the song days.. dunno what’s it’s really about but it’s helped me through my breakup

It's like the algorithm flipped and all my old favourites are back. Sometimes I forget the names and songs of bands . But wow I missed listening to the drums .💕

They sound great, a live LP would be pretty special at this point.

I love with all my heart.

Well I am still obsessed they're still the greatest ever

Estoy obsesionado con esta banda . Creo que demore mucho en haberla encontrado .

Just saw The Drums last week in San Luis Obispo at the Fremont Theater (with Alvvays - equally fantastic). Jonny Price lit up the sold out crowd! His performance here, while great, is dialed down compared to his SLO show. It was like seeing the second coming of Morrissey watching him dance all over the place that night. They did basically this same setlist plus three. Crowd went crazy on Money, Down by the Water. The sold out crowd was loud and into it... Total singalong. After seeing so many obvious fans my impression of the band has changed a little. I'm guessing these guys (Price) have dedicated fans everywhere. Such a great show!

Pretty cool band. Love the sound of that Rickenbacker!

Money que piezón!!!!!

I like the band bringing a sound, so memorable....

I got to see these amazing guys live back in 2019 in Orange County but I wasn't into their music (unfortunately), I was dating my ex-gf and I went to their concert cause she loves these guys. Anyway, we were going through a rough time when we saw The Drums live but it took 2 years for me to be obsessed with them!! The only great thing my ex left me... she introduced me to The Drums and now, can't get over these guys. Now, you might think their music reminds me of her... it reminds me that she likes them but doesn't bring back memories. In fact, I'm creating new and unforgettable memories now with their music!! Love these guys!

En vivo o Studio una excelente banda Forever And Ever Amén

Still got that drums feeling.

Such a sick band never ever get bored with The Drums

Cuando sea viejo los recordaré con mucho cariño ❤️

Days me fue la primera canción de The Drums que escuche. Me recuerdan bastante a mis caminatas con el ipod, a mis amigas y a mis lágrimas de niña. Recién empezaba la secundaria y mis ganas de escuchar Indie. Gracias Jonny

I can't believe it took me this long to find these guys..omg..

Esta banda es mi favorita siempre la escucho

His vocals is on point! I'm obsessed with them ❤

These guys are super talented, great band! Great music! The camera work is excellent also, enhances the whole experience these guys have to offer!! New fan right here today!!

I need a doctor is madness, it's too much.❤

So nice to revisit this legacy. Long live the Drums.

Siempre seran de mis favoritos!!

He's so cute, deep and talented 😍 what a special human being, I adore him 😭

By watching this I'm convinced that WE NEED KEXP on every country in the world.

Listening to the Drums always puts a smile on my face 😎

Johny is such a great performer, there is no live version I find bad of them. I've seen them twice and feel so lucky, this guy rocks

The audio engineer did such a great job!

WOW IM COMPLETELY IN LOVE WITH THE SINGER'S VOICE AND A SIGHT FOR SORE 👀 ; GREAT WORK AND SOUND!!!

Thank you KEXP for show casing beautiful and unique music. The drums are one of my favorite bands

Love u

Esto era lo que estaba esperando... Un live actual de los drums. Bravo KEXP 👏🏼

I love his shoes !!

120 days of quarantine... and I’m still coming back here weekly to listen such masterpiece

That live version of Days tho.... perfection

Money just has that sound that harkens back to the likes of New Order, The Smiths, Joy Division etc. it's just nostalgicccccc

Wish I could have seen this live 🔥

Недавно открыл для себя эту группу и прям влюбился в неё, просто отпад! Сведено мастерски, уже слушаю, наверно, сотый раз этот перформанс.

Alguien más cree que en vivo suena mucho mejor? :D

Tocan increíbleeeeee❤️✨

I LOVEEE THIS BAND

Just recently got to see them perform at Tropicália this year and having only heard a couple of their songs, I fell head over heals after seeing them live. This band brings a certain kind of energy that brings the audience alive and completely infatuated by their sound and style. Thank you so much The Drums for such a unique and awesome experience.

1:05-1:10- 100% Ian Curtis move there (little groove before Ian would go nuts). This set is really good. I'm surprised at the quality of these most recent songs, to be honest. Good stuff.

no rompan las pelotas, esta tremendo esto ♡

So goooood. Saw Johnny at Dimes in New York - finished my meal quickly and he and his friend took my seat

5:45 Great moment. It felt so relatable, it's the 21st century and many of us are still shunned just for being who we truly are and following whatever our passion is.
