The Sounds of VTech / Bilal “Restart” live @ The Fix – Portland, OR

Today we present you with yet another peak into just what exactly VTech & Fresh Selects’ ongoing concert series at Portland, Oregon’s The Fix has been looking like. And today its a slice of life from an incredible set – easily one of the night’s best live acts actually – the one and only, Bilal.

Fresh off of the release of his highly VTech-supported, Airtight’s Revenge album, Bilal and his band returned to Portland for the first time in over a year and played an action-filled 90+ minute set to an eager crowd of diehard fans and interested newcomers alike. Featured in the video above is an extended look at their live, much more jam-heavy, rendition of the album’s first single – “Restart.” Highlights include Mick Jagger vs Keith Richards-level chemistry between Bilal and his guitar player, Mike Severson – as well as impromptu scatting, guitarless Hendrix-esque voodoo man dance claps – and much more as only the unique talent that is Mr. Oliver can bring.
