The Oh Hellos was one of the most energetic and engaging performances I’ve ever seen. Such amazing musicianship and talent!
Loved the opening band! Oh Hellos were more angry than shows in the past- louder, more ‘rock’ sounding. Liked their 2016 show better.
You don't see many bands these days with so many musicians. The band not only plays with precision, but they are really enjoying themselves and the audience. Great way to spend an evening!
Four of us went to the concert on 3/3 at 8 finding a hot place with no seats. OK except the Oh Hellos didn't start until 9:30 and the back up band sounded like nothing I would have paid to see. The only fun part was the riff from Nebraska because someone asked. By 10:15 I was tired of standing and by 10:30 I left. The Oh Hellos were what I expected when they played but if you are going to use a backup use one that sounds something like you and not for 90 minutes.
They were so good and beyond my expectations. Energetic, entertaining with great harmonies from a very tight band! Also the slow acoustic songs were awesome !
I highly recommend arriving early and finding a spot on the front of the balcony level! The view from the upper level is great and it is a wonderful guarantee that you can see the stage (as a shorter person this is often a struggle). It seemed there was a little more elbow room on the balcony as well. The Oh Hellos were wonderful and I would absolutely see this band and come to this venue again.
The energy. The lights. The sound. Everything was perfect. I love this band.
These people bring an unmatched energy to the stage! They sound even better live than on the studio recordings, they transitioned from their regular catalogue to the xmas songs seamlessly. It really does feel like you're in your living room during the holidays, especially when they invite people onstage. I would definitely see them again.
This show was a blast as all of their shows are. Perfect venue, great energy.
Very much enjoyed the set with their songs and holiday classics. Band delivered energy and spirit. Was a great snowy night in Detroit and sparse crowd really had fun. Love the venues new upstairs room and bar (wow!). Brought four "new" fans to the show to see this band along with my family of three long time fans. They don't disappoint. Hope to see them more in 2017! Ken.
Delmar Hall was a great, small, intimate venue. Very clean and classy. The Oh Hellos were spectacular. Their energy and joy is contagious. This concert is the perfect way to get into the Christmas spirit and enjoy the pure, beautiful sound of so many talented musicians all at once.
Both Penny and Sparrow and The Oh Hello's gave a performance that put recording to shame. Penny and Sparrow had amazing clarity and tone while The Oh Hello's had an energy and instrumental explosion that never ceased to amaze.
Incredible live performance. One of the best I've seen!
The band sounded perfect, high energy, and so positive, as bands go. Also, the small venue made it the best place to see them.
When The Oh Hellos play music, it's like the sky opens and God Himself smiles upon the earth. Not only are these musicians immensely talented artists, they demonstrate exuberant joy when they perform. You can't help but move and sway and jump for joy along with them. Just as you think you've figured them out- the formula of the song, their method of performance- they surprise you. The venue was perfect- smaller stage, more intimate- and plenty of food truck options. Best concert of my life.
They played with passion and played great songs from all of their albums. Many thanks to them for sharing with us their meaningful lyrics in a great performance. Spiritually and emotionally moving.
The Oh Hellos put on an awesome show! Their enthusiasm on stage was nearly tangible. If you loved their album, you'll love them more in person.
The band sounded great. I was so pleased to see all the instrumentation present, including the banjo and the fiddle. Their stage presence was very nice. No arrogance, just friendly, regular folks. They emanated energy, fun, and joy.
Fantastic is a good word for them. They just get up there and play their extraordinary music with relentless energy. Two members in particular went totally nuts at the end. I'm not sure how they manage to do that. I worry that every member will die from putting out such hard and beautiful work, but I myself do not worry about dying anymore, for I have beheld the Oh Hellos live.
The Oh Hellos' concert was all things true, good, and beautiful. I felt an array of emotions throughout, and it was just too too good for me. The band members themselves are silly and humble and passionate, and the relationship they build with the audience is an incredible experience. I had goosebumps and tears in my eyes the entire show. I seriously considered going to the Cleveland show the next day, but couldn't pull it off. I'll absolutely be seeing them again next time they are even remotely close to my area. It was worth every minute of the six hours on the road.
