Here are twelve fine looking and sounding videos from an exceptional night of music with Punch Brothers at The Vic in December. Seeing is believing -- and if you have any appetite for acoustic music and are not completely won over by this quintet... just quit music now. Kicking off with a Cars cover that at first belies the heft of this group and then enforces it -- the band ably swings over sorts of ground in a dizzying display of technique and songcraft . For the finale, this videographer has given us two tunes which feature the band with members of Milk Carton Kids, followed by mandolinist / bandleader / genius Chris Thile taking the stage solo (amdist a charming chorus of audience shushes) to perform a classical piece.
This is nearly an hour of performance that awakens the spirit and nourishes the soul. Queue it up and let it rip...
