This is my favorite Steel Drivers song. Very talented bluegrass band. You are starting to see why all music is important in its own way. My playlist basically is Apple Music. I can’t categorize my taste because it cover so many genres. Bluegrass is down home folk music that ranges from The Carolinas to Kentucky Tennessee Georgia Mississippi Louisiana and Texas. It’s grown over the years and can be heard in every state. Always tells a story. Now you have a vast rabbit hole to explore. Enjoy 👍👍👍
👍🏾
The story goes that Adele was touring America and her bus driver was playing this and she was like "What the Hell is this?", and made him keep playing it. She fell for the song so hard that she recorded it on her live at Albert Hall album which was released in England. Love your reactions buddy. It's fun to see someone else hear these wonderful songs for the first time. It's especially interesting to see someone who would never previously be exposed to it otherwise. Keep up the great work. You should give Jason Isbell a try. The song "Elephant" or "If We Were Vampires" a listen. He may be the greatest song writer on the planet.
Thanks for the info👍🏾
Elephant is one of the saddest songs ever written. Jason Isbell is a fantastic song writer.
This song was covered by Adele on her first album I believe. Yes he wrote it.
Incredible
I was raised in AR and it is still very much a tradition in the Ozarks. We still visit and catch them pickin on the square.
Ah..that explains why my media player keeps telling me that Adele sings the song. Interesting
@@cmt89497 , she covered it at the iTunes music festival in like 2010 or so after 21 came out (her second album- it was a much bigger success than her first album, 19). I believe the song may have appeared on the European release of 21. But Chris Stapleton wrote it and The Steeldrivers released it.
Bluegrass is the Country version of folk music. Born in the Appalachian Mountains from English, Irish, and Scots immigrants with the instruments being fiddle, banjo, mandolin, guitar, and upright bass. It was called old timey music, with Americans from other regions calling it Hillbilly music. It turned in the 1930's with Bill Monroe and the Bluegrass Boys ( getting their name from Kentucky bluegrass, the native grass).
Chris Stapleton and steel driver best song is fool me again it will blow you away chris is just sitting down drinking beer and sanging

BEST SINGER SONGWRITER I HAVE EVER HEARD!!!
Joy!Lookin thru older reactions found my bluegrass state of Kentuckys music."Proud"😊 Born in Ky 1911-1996 Bill Monroe was said to be the greatest mandolinist of all time.Bluegrass music got its name from Bill Monroe and the Bluegrass Boys. Reaction2 Bill Monroe's mandolin greatest I believe might be fun?Better check might already be some awesome reactions to that on the channel.Your greatly appreciated for your honest reactions and spreading being a good human around the world.Thank you for being you!✌
BlueGrass by in large had its roots in Scotch/Irish mountain people in the SouthEast. A lot of the music came from slave like conditions of the irish work camps whether building the sears tower or roads and bridges in lousiana. If you listen to words and the stories in the music, you will hear the similiar themes between this music and negro spirituals that were written in the midst of hardships. Some of the best music comes from pain and thankfully we can still experience the music and it still speaks to us. Thank you for the reviews you do.
👍🏾 Got it!!
Agree with this, though the direct African influence is important to note as well. The banjo is one of the main keys to Bluegrass and was an African instrument. The 5th string was added to it by the Scotch-Irish folk of Appalachia to bring in a drone sound much like the bagpipes. There is really little difference in traditional bluegrass and Mississippi blues aside from the scale of the music. Traditional blues was based on the "Slave Scale" while bluegrass was based more on a major pentatonic scale. Bluegrass was created by the Scotch-Irish working and living alongside slaves and is an important, although often overlooked, part of our country's history. Glad to see you review this. The Steeldrivers are a good intro into Bluegrass - you can get as deep as you want to with it. Going a little further back, Doc Watson is a great blend of Bluegrass and Blues.
From Wikipedia: Bluegrass music is a genre of American roots music that developed in the 1940s in the United States Appalachian region. The genre derives its name from the band Bill Monroe and the Blue Grass Boys. Bluegrass has roots in traditional English, Irish, and Scottish ballads and dance tunes, and by traditional African-American blues and jazz.[1] The Blue Grass Boys played a Mountain Music style that Bill learned in Asheville, North Carolina from bands like Wade Mainer's and other popular acts on radio station WWNC.[2] It was further developed by musicians who played with him, including 5-string banjo player Earl Scruggs and guitarist Lester Flatt. Bluegrass pioneer Bill Monroe characterized the genre as: "Scottish bagpipes and ole-time fiddlin'. It's Methodist and Holiness and Baptist. It's blues and jazz, and it has a high lonesome sound."[3]
Bluegrass features acoustic string instruments and emphasizes the off-beat. Notes are anticipated, in contrast to laid back blues where notes are behind the beat, which creates the higher energy characteristic of bluegrass.[1]In bluegrass, as in some forms of jazz, one or more instruments each takes its turn playing the melody and improvising around it, while the others perform accompaniment; this is especially typified in tunes called breakdowns.[4] This is in contrast to old-time music, in which all instruments play the melody together or one instrument carries the lead throughout while the others provide accompaniment.[4] Breakdowns are often characterized by rapid tempos and unusual instrumental dexterity and sometimes by complex chord changes.[5]
There are three major subgenres of bluegrass. Traditional bluegrass has musicians playing folk songs, tunes with traditional chord progressions, and using only acoustic instruments, with an example being Bill Monroe. Progressive bluegrass groups may use electric instruments and import songs from other genres, particularly rock & roll. Examples include Punch Brothers, Cadillac Sky and Bearfoot. Another subgenre, bluegrass gospel, uses Christian lyrics, soulful three- or four-part harmony singing, and sometimes the playing of instrumentals. A newer development in the bluegrass world is Neo-traditional bluegrass; exemplified by bands such as The Grascalsand Mountain Heart; bands from this subgenre typically have more than one lead singer. Bluegrass music has attracted a diverse following worldwide.
I Appreciate you🙏🏾
Should also listen to, Drinkin Dark Whiskey, Good Corn Liquor, The River Runs Red, Guitars Whiskey Guns and Knives, or Wearin a Hole
👍🏾
Jamel, Blue Grass beginning roots are Scotch-Irish.... Most early (late 1700s-early 1800s) Scotch-Irish immigrants settled in the southeastern U.S. Many in Virginia/Kentucky/Tennessee/Georgia/West Virginia....Their stock and trade was mining (mainly coal) and timber...so many were the first white settlers in the Appalachian mountain ranges where coal and timber were plentiful....they were hard working mountain people... I was raised in the Appalachian mountains in Tennessee and know many of their great-great-great-great grandchildren who kept their heritage alive through their music.
And we have stolen Africans to thank for the BANJO! www.npr.org/2011/08/23/139880625/the-banjos-roots-reconsidered
This is why I think it's so important to listen to all genre's. Everything adds something.
Yes indeed👍🏾
Pleeeeeeaaaaaase do Jompson Brothers “On The Run”. That’s Chris Stapletons “Rock Band”.
Stay tuned👍🏾
Tammy Rogers is absolutely sublime on the fiddle. Unreal.
I’ll tell ya, even though Chris Stapleton doesn’t sing with The SteelDrivers anymore, you should still go check them out, because they’re still a really great band. I suggest listening to River Runs Red (Stapleton is actually still lead on that one too) as well as
Long Way Down, to start.
Love my bluegrass! Mountain music and a gift to us from Bill Monroe! To those of us lovers of bluegrass music, Telluride in Colorado is Home and the place where the country’s greatest bluegrass festival takes place. Thousands of people show up in Telluride every year to enjoy the country’s best bluegrass legends and bands for four days. It’s absolutely unbelievable, and the level of talent is off the charts. Some of the greats we love to go to watch every year, are Jerry Douglas, Bela Fleck, Sam Bush, and of course, Alison Krause and Union Station among many others. I hope you’ll get to go one day, Jamal!
Bluegrass is definitely a genre that you have to be able to play the instruments!
Forsure👍🏾
Man you killed another one my friend. Love how you do 3 in a row. Thank you so muck...
👍🏾
Talent, talent, amazing talent..........
I hadn't seen this version before now. Thanks for introducing me to it! Great version of it.
👍🏾
Second one of theirs’ I got the goosebumps all the way to the top of my head.
Love your reaction!!! Remember country music is story telling at its finest. It may not be the story of the one writing the song, but a story handed down through generations. Blue grass music is composed of all stringed instruments and came to us thru the struggles and experiences of folks who lived in the south and mountain areas. Many of these talented musicians were self taught and were handed down to the next generation who learned to play by watching. The harmonies and instruments were intertwined and came from the soul. There were also "clog dances" that were born from thus music as people who listened were inclined to get up and dance. Pull up clog dancers on You Tube. It is amazing. My grandpa and his southern ancestors were all old time fiddle players!
I am happy because you explored outside of Chris Stapelton to see the other parts of his life.
Who are we to judge when we don't know?
Explore outside of here where we are because it is important to see it all.
I only know what I know and it is my fault if I don't know.
Same for you all.
Hugs :)
Just Love you Jamel 💕👏. Love watching you explore ! Love your open heart to enjoy real talent in any genre.
A lot of people don't like blue grass music but when you start listening to songs like these , they get you right in chest . It hurts in a good way.....
Blue Grass is music about things everyday people go through, it's not what some people think ( all about hound dogs & pick up trucks ).
As a lifelong country music fan (who's ignored counrty stations for a decade) this song piqued my ears the first time i heard it. The harmonies sent a chill up my neck.
Your facial expressions are priceless!
Blew me away🤯
Lots of murder ballads in bluegrass.
You are Absolutely correct about the murder ballads! Some are played in a minor key, most are played in a Major key. I think the Steeldrivers have a key of their own. LOL. They've always put in "Blue" notes. Made it BluesGrass
If you're loving the fiddle that much, you need to listen to anything by Bill Monroe and the Bluegrass Boys from when Kenny Baker played fiddle. He was one gifted guy.
Bluegrass music is a combination of the music from Ireland which is where a lot of the white folks immigrated from years ago, with some of the African music that was brought over by slaves. It ended up as very “country” sounding music with rhythm. especially with banjo. Also the instruments are all acoustic so you have to be a fantastic musician to play it. There’s no distortion or volume to cover up your mistakes. The Carolina Chocolate Drops are a great African American band to get a feel for the African influence. For something with a little bit of Mississippi blues tossed in, try Doc Watson. He was blind and played guitar in a flat pick style. It’s incredible to see how much talent he had.
I just discovered this song about a year ago and I thought "this is the perfect song" (for this genre). It cannot be improved. There's something just right about it. I enjoyed this reaction video.
No percussion, but yet you feel the beat! Love this band! I'm late to your reaction!
Chris Stapleton has written over 1000 songs, a lot of them recorded by famous artists, so I would say 99% of what he sings he wrote. (Watch him at the ASCAP EXPO sing “Whiskey and You”.... brilliant!
👍🏾
Another Bluegrass band you'd probably like is "Blue Highway". There's also a song from Doyle Lawson and Quick Silver called "Saving Grace". That song is really deep. Keep the tissues handy.
Your reactions are awesome.
Thanks Again🙏🏾
Brother, i love how you love music no matter the genre.
Bluegrass is the best music on the planet.
I SEE👍🏾 I love the instruments
@@jamelakajamal The Steeldrivers are great, but you need to see some real deal bluegrass. Go watch Tony Rice, Sam Bush, Jerry Douglas, Bela Fleck, and Mark O’Connor play the Freeborn Man. That will get you started. Tony is one of the legends of our little bluegrass community, the EVH of bluegrass if you will, and he passed away this past christmas. I’d love to see you do a reaction to T. He’ll blow your mind.
Down home Bluegrass at its finest!
Chris Stapleton ROCKS it all!🔥❤
Bluegrass makes me think of the Appalachian mountains and the early Grand Ole Opera on the radio at grandma's on saturday night.
He killed her. "Four cold walls against my will. At least I know she's lyin' still", meaning she's dead. Reminds me of "Natalie" by Bruno Mars. The ultimate revenge song. I knew you'd appreciate the musicality in this one. I love it!
😳
Great song, great video, great review as always!
FYI...there is a new Stapleton song out. Performed with Ed Sheeran and Bruno Mars. It’s different than ANYTHING he’s done before...the Jompson Brother’s was close-ish. I’m telling you right now....you have to check it out ASAP! The title of the song is “Blow” Also, the video is pretty easy on the 👀
your ready for billy strings my man ,BLUEGRASS done crawled up your SOUL
Another great bluegrass band is Allison Krauss & Union Station. Bluegrass is more folk country music originating from Scottish/Irish who settled in the Appalacian Mountain region. The music is heavy on string instruments like the banjo, fiddle & guitar.
👍🏾
Songs that take you on a ride
Unreal levels of talent. Why haven't you reacted to Heaven Sent?
I haven't seen any Ozark Mountain Daredevils reactions. "Are you Experienced" with their songs like Jackie Blue, or If You Want to Get to Heaven? They were a 1970's staple on radio and turntables! @Jamel_AKA_Jamal
1st!
🙏🏾
If you like The Steedrivers, check out The Dead South. They're a very talented bluegrass band from Saskatchewan Canada. I would suggest "In Hell I'll Be In Good Company" or "Broken Cowboy."
Jamel aka Jamal digging the bluegrass!
You should listen to Chris Stapleton and Justin timberlake singing "say something"
Steeldrivers are awesome! Even since they got a different singer.
Yes he did
Fiddle for the lady, banjo for the guy
Bluegrass is about life. Pared down, stripped down, hardscrabble, honest life.
How do they memorize the notes to play for these songs??? It’s amazing!
If you'd like another one from the Steeldrivers about "some deep stuff", listen to Can You Run. It's about the horrible plight of former black slaves after they were freed by Lincoln. You must know this history. They were officially free but the war wasn't over. If they tried to leave their plantations, they were hunted down & murdered. If they ran & could make it to "the freedom line of Lincoln soldiers, they were safe. Many, many died trying.
Did you get your Bluegrass explanation? I'll give you a summary. Must be pro musicians who can give a more technical explanation. Bluegrass is associated with the southeast US, Kentucky and surrounding region. Lots of mandolin and harmonies. Personally I like it but in moderation. It can get pretty repetitive. Some big names are Alison Krause, Flatt & Skruggs, Ricky Skaggs is bigtime, and a bunch of others. Lots of good storytelling.
And a fiddle is just a violin when it's played in the South. Look at Charlie Daniels Band for good fiddelin' (Devil Went Down to Georgia).
Thanks Brian 👍🏾 I Appreciate you
For me, I can really enjoy and appreciate bluegrass when it's live or concert footage. When it's just an audio track, I don't enjoy it as much. When you see it, you're able to appreciate how good they are on their instruments.
That's Tammy Rogers playing the fiddle.
You should check out his song daddy forsnt pray anymore...
What you need to know about bluegrass? Come on down to KY and learn all about it! My family been playing for years. Unfortunately weve lost many of them yhis year.
Gospel,country and blues mixed
Bluegrass
Talent squared...
Chris Stapleton actually wrote the song. I believe it was released by Adele first and then the SteelDrivers, not quite sure on that one.
Edit: I was wrong, SteelDrivers first then Adele
I know she's lying still..fantastic double entendre. She's still lying about being a cheater and she's not moving anymore.
DEEP!!
He did. Podcast interview with Joe Rogan really cool interview and he estimates he has written about thousand songs or so.
👍🏾
I hated Bluegrass because I lived it
I like it more as I age.
I know it.
I love it now but as a teen, I hated it
I didn’t realize he wrote this song but Adele sings it also. He kilt that girl lol.
Chris is the MAN!!
I meant Don Reno. Not Don Wayne Reno. Don Wayne is my brother LOL
👍👍👍👍👍
👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
I highly recommend Gangsta Grass Barn Burning!
Love the reaction!! Yes, she's dead..lol.
Thanks 👍🏾
I'd love to see you react to Small Town Titans cover of Johnny Cash's Folsom Prison Blues.
This is typical Bluegrass: a sad story set to toe-tapping music. Always tight harmonies, too. For a real appreciation of the instruments find Flatt & Friends playing Foggy Mountain Breakdown.
My favorite lyric is "at least I know she's lying still", which could either imply that he killed this woman, or he killed the man she was with and she's still out there lying to other dudes
If you Like this, Please check out Allison Krauss and Union Station !! The Lucky one !
Yeah loaded up the 44, and she ain’t running around anymore. And he’s got no parole.
DAMN DEEP!!
Tammy!!!
Ole steel Dobro guitar.
I liked Chris a lot more with the steel drivers
Such a great song. A ton of bluegrass songs are about men who killed the women they love. Makes you wonder. The fiddler plays like she's learned violin style as well as fiddle. Give an interesting sound, most fiddlers saw faster, but that wouldn't work for this song.
when the steeldrivers came out with their style it was called new grass, not bluegrass.
Nice 👍🏾 Thanks for the info
Richard Nolan
New grass existed long before the Steeldrivers. Bluegrass is very diverse.
New grass goes way further back than them. I’d say the 80’s maybe late 70’s.
@@bowtieguy6870 can you name a few so i can hear them. love bluegrass. the steeldrivers were the first bluegrass band i saw live that wasn't at a church
Richard Nolan new grass is a term that has been around for a long time. It has evolved as bands evolve, back in the day bands like Doyle Lawson and quicksilver (they have the best harmony in the business) and the lonesome river band were, by most, considered new grass or progressive, then it was maybe Alison Krauss and union station and Ricky Skaggs and many more, but by today’s standards all those are considered fairly traditional. Today the progressive or new grass bands are bands like greensky bluegrass, trampled with turtles, the steeldrivers, punch brothers and many, many more. I’d recommend just jump into all of it. Some of the traditional stuff is absolutely great as is some of the new stuff.
Please react to Lady Antebellum. Thanks.
Try: Nickel Creek - When In Rome.
He killed her. She is "lying still."
He cowrote it
she lying still yes he wrote that Adele heard them and recorded it herself and had a hit
WOW!!!
Go to TH-cam Jamal and check out Arthur Smith and Don Wayne Reno original Dueling Banjos recorded 1955. Check out the stank my dad puts on the banjo break! Even that will give you the stank face I know it will!
God music is Bluegrass you hear a whole concert you be talking to GOd by the end
Try dug Kershaw
He kilt her dead
