Didn't know Joy Williams before either but she is the perfect addition to this song. I love Avi's solo songs, but in this song I actually prefer it version as a duet. Joy brings such a calming yet mysterious aura to this song and their voices together sound ethereal. It's so healing.

Joy Williams co-wrote this song with Avi. Although I hadn't come across her before, I understand that she was one half of a duo called The Civil Wars with her ex-husband and she is a 4 times Grammy winner. She certainly has a beautiful voice! During the pandemic lockdowns, Avi did a number of live concerts direct to video. One of my favourites is from KZitem Space LA. It was recorded in March 2020, so features songs from the 'I'll Get By' ep and it's a full 40+ minutes long. There's no audience but Avi plays it as if there is. He's also done a few mini fundraising concerts and you'll find lots of individual fancam recordings from his 2022 tours. Can't wait for you to get around to him again!

My favorite version of this song is the live at Sunset Sound. His live streaming of House of the Rising Sun, Lean On Me and Wonderwall are all amazing.

You truly know you love an artist when you can hear the same song with three different versions, but you love them all! lol. I never tire of hearing Avi's voice. I had never heard of Joy before this video either. I was so impressed with her voice that I looked her up. I was stunned to learn that she is a four time Grammy winner herself! Where have I been? lol. As for a live performance, I highly recommend "Full Moon" -- (Live from KZitem Space LA). When I listen to it, I often forget to breathe.

On his last tour he invited singers to join him sing this song, some that he selected from a contest he offered prior to the tour. Don't quote me but I believe many were local talents and the audiences really got a kick out of that. He's such a special human being and talent and he has such love for his fans. Thank you for this reaction Carmen. You hit the nail on the head in that Avi grounds us and gifts us with a beautiful calm. His voice could cure what's ailing the world I'm convinced. 😉 A perfect way to start the day. ♥

Avi & Joy share a management company, and when they got together, having just met, they wrote this song in about 4 hours, and Avi insisted she sing it with him in this original official video. As regards live Avi, I've been to 5 of his concerts (3 in 2019 and 2 in 2022) and took video/audio at 4 of them. This cover of "House of the Rising Sun" from his August 24, 2019 show in Dallas, Texas will give you an idea of his natural speaking voice and of how he sounds live. He kills the song, as does Daniel Ellsworth, the keyboardist doing his honky-tonk piano solos. kzitem.info/news/bejne/qaGVs5xqjKmWi4Y

Avi has fallen in love with The Netherlands. He even vacationed there this summer. It was a long vacation as he also spent a week or more with his family (pictures of his parents and Esther, his sister were posted.) in Italy at Lake Cuomo.

Like others said, Joy was in a duo called The Civil Wars with John Paul White. They had an amazing album called Barton Hollow, and I believe another album after that, and then they broke up from creative differences. Barton Hollow and Poison and Wine are my two favorites from the album.

Love your videos, Carmen! I hope you’ll schedule a reaction to Avi’s new release this weekend! Also, since we’re getting close to Christmas, you can find Avi singing O Holy Night live from last year’s concert on my channel. It’s a great live performance to react to! (Sharing links gets comments hidden on YT. If you look for “new” comments, you might see mine with the link. Coco also shared it and another one but they don’t show up without searching.) Hope this helps!

Joy and Avi co-wrote this song. They have a mutual management company and met there one day to test the writing waters. Both of them being writers. They immediately clicked and wrote this song in about an hour. Two great minds... Avi is from California and Joy's father was a preacher who took a pastorate in California and Joy was the Praise and Worship leader at the congregation. Avi was raised in what he calls a highly religious family and extended family of Messianic Jews, so they both came from strong religious backgrounds and felt comfortable with each other. I believe they wrote a great song and they do sound great together. Joy has 4 Grammy's and Avi has 3 so they also have that in common though Avi kept his in storage for years not wanting to be to pretentious in displaying them in his cabin. Here is Joy singing Canary kzitem.info/news/bejne/2HmExaN6mph1aG0 And Joy with her duo Civil Wars kzitem.info/news/bejne/rqShs5Obm6hqdX4
