Judging from this one video:
The song ain't bad. The guy is a fair singer. I think the rhythm playing at least matches the song audio. The mandolin and drum players are terrible musicians and don't even seem to try and match the audio.
I'll check out the link and listen to more songs but, as they say at accidents, "move on ... nothing to see here."

I could be wrong but this looks like AI created using the LTX video engine. I've been looking into that one too.

This sounds like it could indeed be a BiaB backing track. The video is AI gobbledygook.

In Ye Olden Times you could check out videos and figure out parts by watching the player.
What I learned from that video was that in order to play fast mandolin licks, I need to move my fingers in slow motion.
On the other hand, the dead-eyed zombie on the drums did a pretty good job staying in sync. But when ride hits, the splash cymbal magically moves as well - just like in real life?
I can accept having synth voices singing songs - because without that, you've just words on paper. But watching AI people "play" the music is where my brain draws the line. It's a step completely removed from reality: the images that you're looking at literally have no relation to the sounds you're hearing. Are you trying to convince your viewer that there's a real band there?
With the ability to create videos of virtually anything, it seems that having a locked-down camera of a fake band is the epitome of ick. But I'm an old luddite, so what do I know?

Yeah… I found the video unwatchable for that reason. Don’t need to be a Luddite to know crap when you are looking at it.
