Brad and his green Tele Thinline on Colbert øøøøøøø

Post by Maggieo » Sat Sep 28, 2019 7:46 am

Brittany Howard was on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert the other night, playing a song from her R&B solo album and our very own Brad ( øøøøøøø )Williams was the guitar player in her band!

Wonderfully tasteful and right in the pocket playing, Brad. And I always love seeing that green sparkle Thinline!

Goddamn, I love Brittney Howard. She's the real deal. Great job Brad, the whole band there is totally in the pocket. Late night TV doesn't see performances like that every day.

A bunch of null signs or something.

That was wonderful, though. Great playing, great singing, great performance.

She is absolutely one of the best of her generation. Alabama Shakes never gets old! My friend Joe has seen them over 100 times and he'll go see them, or Brittney, if he's within an hour's drive of a show.

I saw her live with the Shakes last year in Portland Me. My youngest daughter's birthday gift to me. Great show. Congrats Brad.

Beautifully understated work from the whole band there, backing singers included. Nice one Brad. :)

Damn, I haven't been into a live tv performance in a long time but this just clicked. I'm checking out that new album. Great song, great vocals. Just great. Brad included.

Great performance! It's great seeing OSG members kicking ass in a musical way, especially someone who's such a great guy ;)

I tried, but I never got into Alabama Shakes, and part of it was Brittany Howard's voice, but to me, it fits an R&B thing like this nicely. I could get down with this :)
