- Sierra Rocks this Bill Monroe tune on her Octave Mandolin. This will Blow you Away! Just read the comments to see what others thought of this video. I have OVER 1000 videos posted here on You Tube and I would definitely rate this among my top 2-3 ALL TIME ! Check this video out and others I posted of Sierra at this same event :) Steve
The way she smiles and sways gently whilst stepping high on the rythym steady chugging along is just adorably neat and clean yet is not just one aspect of her flow musically speaking or her total presence just flows like a river her soloing style is melodic voicing coming from a factory power plant of back beat and is so intentional from the very first note to the last . She is a rare blooming flower indeed , may she live long and multiply!
She has got it!
She has that magical IT that I cannot put IT into words but I know IT when I hear IT. My Goodnees!
And she sings amazingly well. A monopoly on talent.
Everytime I watch this I'm amazed and so happy it's on YT...thank you!!😊
*The mandolin goddess plays with her whole body. Especially with bold and skilled fingers, then such beautiful music is created. Great the other too.
She is one of the cleanest players of any stringed instrument I have ever heard. Just astonishing talent and ability.
Her touch is absolutely exquisite - she is an astounding, my favourite mandoplayer
Very good indeed
I love this music.
I'm just learning the mandolin.
One I master my little treasure I'm getting an Octave. God its so deep & rich
Feel it in your soul
Sierra never disappoints! Fantastic!
Wow ,, Just Wow .. How feel be able to do, what million people wish they could do ??? Great playing
You guys are all, very focused and skilled....Outstanding performance..
My favorite person
Jaw hits the floor.
No better response: just jaw dropping.
I got chills!
Shred clinic up in here!!
Music is magical, isn't it
Incredible!
What a 3 year old would look like playing a standard size mandoln. Very cool.
There are some who like to pee and moan about how current music sucks. Then there are folks like Sierra. Incredible virtuoso, but not a show-off, It's not like Sierra just fell off the proverbial turnip truck, growing musically before our eyes since sixth grade. Such a down-to-earth, approachable person. Sierra really rocks.
she is great :) got a new fan
Thanks :).
Amazing
Respect.
She can Rock that Mandolin can't she !! Thanks for the compliment.
GO GIRL!
Sierra has her own distinctive sound. I can't describe it but when you hear it you say. Yeah that's Sierra playing. Great musicians have that. Listen to Itzhak Perlman or Yo Yo Ma.
very good
thanks for watching :).
WOWZA! Her body undulations are reminiscent of David Grisman! All the group, GREAT pickers!
thanks
Impressive pickin'! Idle thought-wonder if this could be played on border pipes or small pipes ;)
Yes, but not well😁
I need to practice some more.
I've watched this video a lot, but I just saw something I hadn't noticed before. It looks like the guitarist is playing a garden variety Yamaha. You don't usually see musicians in a band of this caliber playing such inexpensive instruments. It sounds good though.
someone call the fire depatment.Her mandolin is smoken.where theres smoke ,theres fire
BLUEGRASSY OCTAVE MANDO
Beauty & the hygienically challenged beasts.
schlumbucket Sounded alright to me.
what kind of octave mandolin is that i wonder? like what company?
Nice f-shaped octave mandolin.
The octave mando is the tenor mando whereas the normal ones is an alto mando.
No offense by any means to her husband or her family but oh my God she is the sexiest thing I've ever seen
Does anyone have an event and/or date on this performance?
Is this a Hamaha guitar?
THE MANDOLIN LOOKS SO LARGE IN SIERRA'S HANDS !
It's an "octave mandolin". It IS bigger!
IO Odyssey It is the octave mandolin aka tenor mandolin whereas the normal mandolins in everyday bluegrass band are the alto mandolins.
Are you sure that's not a mandocello?
please show the banjo more next time!
The name of the tune is Old Daingerfield - not Old Dangerfield -- and this good but I have heard better versions of it played. I think description is over the top but each has their own opinions. In fact the guitar break in this video is just as awesome IMO.
Thank You for naming this tune...
You sure about that spelling?🤔
Never feed a mandolin steroids :-)
+Paul Best Isn't she just amazing! Thanks for your response Paul :)
KIller
I can't listen that fast.
Who are the other members playing here?
I know right! Amazing banjo and guitar but nobody seems to know who they are.....or just won't say :-(
Banjo is Corey Walker. I saw him w Tim O'Brien in the Aug. I don't know the guitar player on sight.
Besides Sierra Hull on (octave) mandolin, we have Cory Walker on banjo, Jacob Eller on bass, and Jake Stargel on guitar. These are from the group Highway 111; there is also a fiddle player named Christian Ward who appears with them in other videos.
ከመ
that looks,sounds like a mandocello and not a mandola
William Ullrich Neither. Octave Mandolin.
+Dan Ostrowski YEP :) Thanks for the info Dan :) .... Steve
Dan Ostrowski The mandocello is what to be the octave mandola which is tuned one octave below the mandola.
Who is this amateur cameraman that can't film the mandolin player without the mike blocking her playing?
there's one in every crowd.
she needs to be wearing a dress
It was Tuscon and it was very informal .. 😎
If you're concerned about what she's wearing while she's playing like that, then you're just paying attention to the wrong things. Sheesh.
Ralph Cook I know right.
No, she doesn't. Hopefully she never will again just to piss off people stuck in the 1800s.
Virtuoso, incredibly gifted musician.
Good thing I am a Hindu. I can worship multiple Gods. She is the mandolin goddess I worship. She is simply unbelievable! And so were the Tenor banjo and guitar players. Feast to eyes and ears.
That’s not a Tenor Banjo, it’s what is called a five string.the tuning peg half way up the neck is a giveaway.
@@Pete-z6e and she is not playing a mandolin. Looks more like a mandala to me.
@@jjmuni It's an octave mandolin as mentioned in the description.
To be fair, I think, U. Srinivas which lived in South India was the actual undisputed mandolin champion ,-) hhha but I love your comment ^^ He did play carnatic classical music tho , I wonder how he would have done with Bluegrass on a octave size mandolin (th-cam.com/video/qrIepcMALCI/w-d-xo.html) and here with western Jazz collegues th-cam.com/video/VA7Mzo73cd4/w-d-xo.html
@@heliopijpeMandolin champion according to whom?
Sweet Holy Moley, that is how you do it kids! She is AMAZING! Hardly anyone plays the Octave in Britain and Ireland - me and a handful of others..
No...but but bouzouki players abound!!
I saw her live recently and it was fantastic, but this performance is unbelievable.
9 shredders got scared.
Really like the octave mandolin. Never heard of it til one came up on used site. It’s a gold tone. It seems decent, maybe I’ll get it...what tuning did she use?
You don'y know how in love I am with this brilliant player - she is one of half a dozen people I have ever seen playing my chosen instrument and she is incredible! What a talent.. oh the guys are quite good too! SIERRA PLEASE COME TO EUROPE!!
Wow, excellent. We know she's a great player but she always has this wonderful presence and energy projected when she plays. It's really a combination that makes her so unique and entertaining. WTG Sierra!
~JSV
That octave mandolin looks and sounds fantastic, I wish I could find an F style octave mando that didn't cost as much as my truck, but, that being said, SHE IS FANTASTIC and I LOVE this performance, all the players are quite talented, thanks for posting :)
there is a Feeling f style octave on ebay right now for $1500 bucks, but im not sure how shitty your truck is...lol...buy it before i do!
I have been trying to find the name of the guitar player. Love that he breaks all the rules and plays an inexpensive old Yamaha acoustic and it sounds every bit as good as any high-end boutique guitar. Guy's a monster BG player
I'm with you mate, I think it's Jake Stargel.
Now I remember why I LOVED Bluegrass back in the 70s!!!
+Laura Woodswalker YEP ! Her playing will do that LOL. I loved being able to capture this video for all to enjoy :) Thanks for your nice comment Laura :) .... Steve
What a phenom performance and great sounding octave mandolin as well, Is it an Olson? Anyone happen to know what the scal length might be approx? Seems to be about 20 inches, but that's essentially a guess. This makes me want to procure an octave mando.....it also makes me want to practice more bu that's an ongoing feeling@!!
Another virtuoso like Chris Thiele - but technical skill is no substitute for feeling and expressivity. All I hear are a lot of notes being played so fast I can barely keep up and follow the melody line. Hence the feeling of Monroe's marvellous composition is left in the ditch on this Interstate that goes nowhere. LOL - and then that guitar takes a solo and the entire bottom of my listening experience drops out. So after the applause dies down and I'm walking out of the venue what memorable feeling do I take with me? Or better yet what did that performance make me think or imagine? PS "wow" is not a thought or feeling with any serious staying power. How did this performance affect me as a human being in some sort of memorable lasting way - other than the cheap thrill of "wow" or "awesome"?
yow.
Agreed Darol .... She killed it LOL.
Steve Hanes YES She did Darol :) thanks for the comment :)
+darol anger killed it daid.
That's for sure.
Thanks Carol 😎
Fantastic musicianship!!❤
Sierra Hull and her husband Justin Moses are two of the greatest Bluegrass/Newgrass musicians of today. SIerra has complete mastery of her mandolin while Moses is up there with the best on Dobro, Guitar, Banjo ,Violin, Mandolin and Violin. That multi-instrumentalist guy is on a totally different level.
Yep ... A very talented couple.
wow. awesome playing...wish she would play some Charlie Parker melodies.
my new favorite artists i didnt know existed a month ago wow.
I’m guessing WOW isn’t enough said…Ill say it again…WOW, if she made a mistake…ya wont find it…
LOVE this woman!!!! She just KILLS it every time. Amazing talent!
I think Sierra Hull and Chris Thile should have a child together. Can you imagine?
She flat wore those guys out and looked like “no biggie” doing it.
Holy sh*t
YEAH ..... she is great ! thanks :).
The octave mandolin on the above video is the baritone mando whereas the normal mandolin is the contralto ones.
Quite simply the BEST then and now. 🙂
Holy Sh*t 5, 6 and eight string masters. Does it come any better? I don't think so. We are blessed.
AMEN!!!!!
I have watched this over and over again the last few months and I absolutely love it.
Thanks .. I knew when I was shooting the video that it was gonna be a very special performance .. and indeed it is .. 😎😍
We all love Sierra, but it'd be nice if you'd list the rest of the band in the header.
Played in a minor key, the Octave Mandolin has the most haunting range and tone.
I gotta go now and look at her other stuff.
I wonder if she ever looks and down at her own fingers in wonder?
Great player, great instrument. I wish I had 1% of her skill and talent
Great player, great instrument. I wish I had 1% of her skill and talent
+Alvin Chorder guessing you did just that, any additional thoughts? I've been a fan since her first album when she was 15. :D
No sir... It NOT a mandola. A mandola is only slightly larger than a mandolin. If you look at the caption of the video you will see clearly stated by the author... OCTAVE MANDOLIN.
Octave mandolin is an American term for an Octave mandola. Tuned GDAE (usually!).
Her playing is hypnotic. So quick and clean.
This is why you practice with a metronome
We love you not just because you're a cutie but you can shred!
Here's my complete review: She's wonderful. Full stop.
Sure glad her Dad encouraged her to practice a lot . . .
She can't, yet, be compared to Thile in overall musical mastery of the instrument. But I don't think that anyone, including Thile, can beat SH when it comes to smooth, fast legato. Each note is separate clear as a bell without being staccato. Amazing.
+oldwest517
Its not a fair comparison. Hes playing a mandolin and shes playing an octave. Shes got a lot more room to play with to hit those frets just right.
Thile is in a league of his own. If there is ever another mando player that reaches his level that person is currently a child or hasnt yet been born. Dont look to adult players to ever catch up to Thile. The older you get you lose energy and dexterity.
@@thunorwodenson I actually like Hull's playing better than Thile. There is no doubt that he has an absolute mastery of the instrument, I just think that (1) she does also, and (2) there is much more feeling in her playing, much more 'statement', much more that she's saying something with the music and not just showing that she can play many notes quickly. Of course we all have our favorites, but your contention that she isn't in the same class as Thile just sounds like prejudice.
Prefer her taste to Thile’s
that version is uptempo to hell and will be hard to be match.. great job. come back and back again and again... my classical composer background is both amaze an thankfull.
This is very popular in the region : playing guitars etc.... really well!
She grew up playing the Mandolin I read.
.
Another good video is "Bert Jansch and Martin Jenkins - Bittern".
.
Martin plays the Mandocello.
Bittern is a bird, FYI.
Watching Sierra playing in her zone is just the best you can hear all the years of playing of honing her craft wonderful truly wonderful
I just saw her playing live a couple of days ago. Absolutely brilliant!
and the guitar!
Yeh. She can play. But whatta cutie!!
I like your playing i am from India
I have a Mendel OM that I love to noodle on. Seeing Sierra totally rock her Weber reaffirms I have a long long way to go. The scary part is she's up there on stage enjoying herself and not even breaking a sweat. Imagine Alison Krauss calling up Sierra and asking her to join the band on tour! Now that would be a treat. After all, they have played together on a previous occasion or two. Alison?
Who the hell is flatpicking like that?
what kind of pickup is she using?
Yep. Some people are Stupid Hot. Some people are Stupid Talented...... And some...?... Are Both...💗🤘💗🤘💗
She’s got the “it” factor. Needs more recognition!!!
The best thing I've ever heard in my life :)
I love the jazz/blues feel this rendition of the song has - Too bad the audio is so muted.
Sounds perfect on my set up. Sorry you can't hear how good it really sounds :). Regards, Steve
Ah not bad I suppose 🤪😂🤣
what a talented band when are they coming over to Scotland?
