I got to see them last month in a very small club. I was sitting maybe six feet from the band, it felt like they were in my living room. They are such wonderful, happy, performers!

I'm trying for that "ragged, but right" sound. I'm half way there!

That slow instrumental that they begin playing about 6:20 to 7:00 was just amazing live. It sounds thin on the video, but in that room it was full and rich, hypnotic, and entrancing.

Just saw them live for the first time last month. What great performers. They seem so at ease with the audience. Thanks for sharing the video.

Yeah. I got to see them twice,in late August. I left feeling like I wanted to follow them on their tour! LOL Really such a fun band to see live,and all very friendly folks! Cant wait to see them again.
Dom's guitar juggling type stuff was a highlight for me!
Also Riannon playing Ekonting.(I think thats what she had there)

Take care,and Have fun Pickin!!!

I know this post is old but I am going to bump it. I love the Chocolate Drops. They have a new album coming out tomorrow and I am really looking forward to it. This is a great band with a lot of talent in it.
