Last night I was scrolling through youtube and came across New Order's Truth. Wovenhand, the band, and Mr Edwards have a way of making a good song better.. I don't know how that can be , but for me, that's what happens when the guitars are played, the drum is beat, and and DEE opens his mouth and the words flow from his heart. Thank God and God bless! ❤️
I'm on mandolin, banjo, and bass... Knowing this is an old tradition, imma copy the ones out there already instead of invent my own thing like I been trying Lol
He moves me. He inspires. He brings the heart and the thrash of the soul to us. I could not love a musician more, in a league with the long time greats. I hope he holds up. The new album continues the greatness that is DEE.
this is the reason i started making wooden bodied banjos;the sound dee produces is out of this world ;he is also a very clever musician ;ably backed by his fellow bandmates
Right there lies a poet... Right there lies a story that only with soul can be expressed ! David Eugene Edwards thank you for your gospel deep-meaning voice.
Hi, can you recommend any bands that would be similar to Wovenhand/16HP in terms of style and perhaps lyrics? :-) I'm referring to their albums from the beignning of the 21st century, too, as far as genre. Best regards!
Thomas Paine once wrote "Reflections on unhappy marriages" (himself being in one). Since at the time of releasing John Wesley Harding the marriage to Sara Lownds was still prosperous, I believe Dylan combines the Paine elements (both referring to the award and the pamphlet) and the traditional ballad to state he refuses a "marriage with a generation". He chooses his own path, he does not do what people expect him to do (hence also the behaviour at the acceptance speech).
Yess, great music..i ve been a listener for 10+ years.. Creepy crawl kidoo from balkans! Much love.. Condemned is the man who posed and asked " what is beneath me, what is above me, what was before and what will happen"
you can find a possible explanation under Mister Hamme's reply. I've been reading and writing about this song for a while now for my bachelor paper. Also, since Wovenhand is coming to play in my town this Sunday, I've sent David Eugene Edwards a facebook message asking if he could play it and I could ask him afterwards what he thinks the song means... fingers crossed!
Dylan shocked the audience by giving a very strange acceptance speech, concluding he "understood Lee Harvey Oswald". In my opinion he wrote this song as another statement he wasn't gonna let himself be labelled "spokesman of a generation". The song is based on a traditional English ballad "The banks of the sweet primroses", which is about a girl refusing a possible lover. Dylan turns the song around, it is the man refusing the damsel now.
@WatchingCuriously Yes, I too am on YT searching Wovenhand because last night was the 7th TOOL show I've been too. By far hands down Wovenhand has been the best opening group I've ever seen for TOOL.
@HellGrowler no its not the real name people kind of made it up its a banjo. some look like banjos with a short mandolin neck now there are other with a mandolin body and a banjo style neck i call call them manjo but its not the real name like the guitar/banjo people call the ganjo not sure if thats the real name what it looks like he has is a mandolin body and a banjo neck its just called a mandolin/banjo but everybody you ask will call it a manjo i call it that it just sounds cool hahaha
@futurhumen its i think and its rare its a mandola banjo mandolin but that is a mandola body and it looks like a banjo neck because a banjo only has 5 strings who knows the thing is rare it looks like the one he has been around awhile i'm sure its old
@karloney lol okay l dont know cause there isnt meny Metalheads were l live and when you find they dont like to talk about it much so thanks nice to know that lol.
@HellGrowler oh yeah and there is something called a banjolin its cool looking that i think looks like a banjo with a short neck and 4 strings and i think manjos are tuned to a violin its weird its a really cool thing to play if you find a nice vintage one
@Robot247 It's called a mandolin banjo made by the pullman company in the 1800's according to David his was made in 1897 and he got it about 10 years ago from a famous folk musician in Seattle. Also it was supposedly a gut string instrument originally. He said this during a mini concert in NPR back in 2009 there is a video of the appearance if you can find it simply titled "NPR Tiny Desk Concert"
@kexpradio it has a hollow body and a long neck, which are not characteristics of banjo/mandolin hybrids. i must know what that is he is playing! perhaps a custom piece? also, great camera work
i am currently writing my bachelor paper English Literature about this particular song. the song is often ignored by most scholars who dissect Dylan's songs. My own theory focuses on the use of the "Tom Paine" character. Thomas Paine was a English/American radical rationalist. In 1963 Dylan was granted the Thomas Paine award "in recognition of distinguished service in the fight for civil liberty".
This is a thirteen years old video and the production hasn't aged one bit. Splendid job on the part of KEXP !
Sweet cover...this great song of Dylan's always needed an old-english folk style interpretation. Timeless and deep.
Thank you Bob Dylan for being a vessel for this song until it reached it's home. David and this song are a match made in heaven.
The amount of personality he can inflect onto a song is absurd. I didn't even know this was a cover

It's a "manjo" -- a banjo/mandolin hybrid. It's actually an old instrument. Google it.
Hope you didn't mean this, because that's what I got on my Google search. www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=manjo
@Jason Copeland banjola !
I'm on mandolin, banjo, and bass...
Knowing this is an old tradition, imma copy the ones out there already instead of invent my own thing like I been trying
Lol

@Manofdarkdesires me too! ive starting making music again because of his inspiration. his voice woke me up! Thankyou David!!! Love and respect!
Goosebumps every time
Makes me shiver. Every damn time.
Beautiful.
Gives me chills
Beautiful.
I really wished this was on spotify :(
And around and around His Throne... 2021
Awesome stuff
love
i hear joe strummer in this guy at times. much in like with this, awesome find for tonight.
Pure genius
I think the banjola is tuned Cm. Wonderful rendition, I will try tonight...
why all Dylan's songs sound to me way better as covers than originals, question I will die with
Dylan's voice....wasn't that great probably
@andSometimesY
While not technically Woven Hand, I think 16 Horsepower's (DEE's precursor to Woven Hand) "Secret South" is the best thing he's done.
He said in one interview that it is made in 1887.... it sounds beautiful...
this is the reason i started making wooden bodied banjos;the sound dee produces is out of this world ;he is also a very clever musician ;ably backed by his fellow bandmates
the best contemporary vocalist (ok, on par with Greg Dulli), he needs to be more widely recognized.
Dupa Jasiu Does he really? He's got the opportunity to tour and share his music worldwide, I don't know what more he could ask for.
+Dupa Jasiu I know him, and that's enough.
Right there lies a poet... Right there lies a story that only with soul can be expressed ! David Eugene Edwards thank you for your gospel deep-meaning voice.
Bob Dylan song is it not?
+Andrew David Boyle Exactly dear friend.
Faq amazing singer....his songs are very popular and very nice
Andrew David Boyle Yes it is.
I'm almost on the other side of this planet (Belgium), but thanks KEXP for giving us amazing performances by amazing artists!
+theimaginarysuitcase Yay for Belgium. o/
+theimaginarysuitcase in october i see them again in my sweet Gent.
Отличный музыкант, великолепное творчество. Привет из России!
Слушаем, любим и ждём новых песен!
americana best as it get...
They date from the 1890's google: August Pollmann Royal Mandolin Banjo
since i know him, my life has changed. he is such an inspiration.
I do Not Know Him,,Been Listening since97(Down At The Farm). Daag
pascal is un bon homme et i would love to hang with him in canada where i think hes chillllllllin :)

I just discovered this man and his music. I love every moment of it.
The best band I've ever seen to open for Tool.
Thanks Tool :) Spiral out.
(Wovenhand - As I Went Out One Morning)
they've open for tool !? that's crazy
I live this song and next to the cover done by Mira billotte this is my fave cover
Indeed! I caught that tour back in 2010!!! Glorious!!! 🌀🤘🏼
Holy fuck I bet that was an amazing concert.
16 people are going to be smitten by the Almighty for disliking this video.
I do so love the warm tones of his wooden banjo.
I dont know about you guys, but I think I prefer this version over Dylan's. I still love you Bob Dylan!
best cover..this one and Joy Division's Heart and Soul ( 16 Horsepower) ..
What they do with bad Moon Rising ese awesome too
este tio es un pedazo artista...
Verle en directo no tiene precio... ¡WOVEN HAND!

Great version of a Bob Dylan song!
The best cover of this great song.
This song makes me feel like I am setting off on a long journey across many lands and seas.
5D indeed!
Very good. But I could wish it to be more spare and tight. Too much extraneous vocalization.
Yess, great music..i ve been a listener for 10+ years.. Creepy crawl kidoo from balkans! Much love..
Condemned is the man who posed and asked " what is beneath me, what is above me, what was before and what will happen"
Wow!.... Beautiful voice. Love the banjo... really great cover!!
Much love for this song, no matter how many years passed. Love it!
Bob Dylan cover from his album 'John Wesley Harding'
What is that instrument? Seems to have stringing similar to a banjo except with nylon strings?! Great and hypnotizing performance!
Man him and dax rigs in a band together would be like the music of the gods they are so similar yet like night and day
Just wanna say I love your profile picture
ADORE ❤️ 🎸.... STILL CRYING ABOUT ROADBURN CANCELLING THIS APRIL.... EUGENE WAS CURATED BY EMMA RUTH RUNDLE ❤️ 🎸.... 🏜️😷🙏😪.....

getting excited about your show in denver april 28 17
я правда не понимаю слов но мне кажется это хорошая песня
very very nice
what instrument is he playing?...not familiar...thanks.
Είσαι πολύ μεγάλος ρε αρχηγέ μου!
@WatchingCuriously Yes, I too am on YT searching Wovenhand because last night was the 7th TOOL show I've been too. By far hands down Wovenhand has been the best opening group I've ever seen for TOOL.
Did they release this on any lp or ep/single?
i have many of their LPs,not this song tho
Bob Dylan and Wovenhand!
Oh My Fucking God!
This man and his voice... Goosebumps every time I hear this song. Amazing
What are those instruments?..
I always look at his nose which lookes like there is another one underneath it 🙂
anyone know his tuning in this song? doesnt sound like standard banjo....
I Really love this song...
love everything this guy has done 5*
@HellGrowler no its not the real name people kind of made it up its a banjo. some look like banjos with a short mandolin neck now there are other with a mandolin body and a banjo style neck i call call them manjo but its not the real name like the guitar/banjo people call the ganjo not sure if thats the real name what it looks like he has is a mandolin body and a banjo neck its just called a mandolin/banjo but everybody you ask will call it a manjo i call it that it just sounds cool hahaha
O recomend you guys his short documentary
Bob Dylan is just a master storyteller, and he is just telling a story, I think. DEE does a good cover.
love everything this guy has done 5* thanks for sharing this awesome song
@futurhumen its i think and its rare its a mandola banjo mandolin but that is a mandola body and it looks like a banjo neck because a banjo only has 5 strings who knows the thing is rare it looks like the one he has been around awhile i'm sure its old
Haha, he kinda looks like him, yes. Small difference in music & vocals though :D Still, I adore Roxette :)
@karloney lol okay l dont know cause there isnt meny Metalheads were l live and when you find they dont like to talk about it much so thanks nice to know that lol.
right, its basically an acoustic banjo. 5 strings normally tuned to open G (g'DGBd' ) but thats not the tuning he's using in this song...
@HellGrowler oh yeah and there is something called a banjolin its cool looking that i think looks like a banjo with a short neck and 4 strings and i think manjos are tuned to a violin its weird its a really cool thing to play if you find a nice vintage one
As I Went Out One Morning.........
This is awesome! I saw them with Tool. Can anyone recommend some of their best stuff?
thanks for posting this
the KEXP videos are a real treasure trove and among the very best videos on the tube!
@debnlinda It is a Banjola, basically a banjo with a wooden body. It is nothing like a mandolin.
Still my fave Wovenhand interpretation 13 years later. To bad it's not on Deezer !

also, great camera work
Helaas ook niet! Toch weer een superoptreden!

hundred times better than the original
no song could be better than any original
@@RunplaysinHD lol
2020 here!
You do justice.
@Shalvagranate Lol l am also a big time Metal fan but like you said this is great.
Jesus shit aside, this is an incredible song. Damn well done.
великан
Which instrument is it?
"A mandolin-banjo hybrid, a unique instrument made in 1887 by luthier August Pollman"
...WOW.
Ohmylord.............This is SO beautiful !!!!
It's not on a Wovenhand album. It's a song from Bob Dylan's John Wesley Harding album.
