Those guys are part of Lyle Lovett's acoustic band who are on tour. The Bass player, Leland Sklar usually films the concert houses they play as they jump from place to place.

I'll nerd out a little here - a couple of weeks back I saw Os Mutantes at Third Man Records, who are considered generally speaking one of the seminal acts in the Brazilian Psychedelic/Tropicalia scene in the late 60s/early 70s. Sergio Dias, lead guitarist and singer, is clearly not at 100% physically and has a lot of mobility issues, but the man can still play and he still clearly loves to play his songs. Weird stuff and obvious hipster bait: I told my friends I went with it was probably the highest concentration of advanced degrees the city had seen outside a Wayne State seminar hall.
