Just discovered this song from the dude who sang it on The Voice. Had to come here and find the original. Now this is the kinda country music I like, good story telling songs. Not whatever pop crap most country has become in the last 20 years. Definitely gonna go down the music rabbit hole of these guys
Yep, same here. Checked out Levon Helms version, meh…Then found this sublime version. WOW! The old creep in me does like looking at those girls though…
agree, this is so good, as someone mentioned in the comments I check this video out at least once a month. I found them after Laine Hardy's American Idol audition in 2018.
Now theres a crazy concept 5 talented guys that can actually sing and play instruments (NO MACHINES OR COMPUTERS).It's sad this is almost extinct in music today. Great performance!!!!!
If you think that's extinct, you're looking in the wrong places. Its all over. One of my favs is a Norwegian who sings, plays guitar, bass, banjo, drums, produces, and films his own stuff. He takes songs and makes em metal. If thats not your cup of tea, Steve n seagulls takes metal and turns it into bluegrass. The. Theres always Texas country if you need a little red dirt in your coffee.
Blame radio executives for the obscurity of bands like this. Spotify, Pandora, and TH-cam Music opens up a world of great music. The Buggles nailed it in 1980.
I sent this to my Dad who's a long time Bluegrass musician. Their band (Pacifc...ly Bluegrass) had some great harmonies, and I knew he'd appreciate it. But damn right, that dude singing tenor on the harmonies is amazing. I initially heard the album version of this on Pandora but then found this performance. A new favorite band, for sure.
@@michaellorah9051 agreed, going from album version to this I wasn't crazy about it at first but it's growing on me. I wish sound would tone him down just a hair but I mean it's definitely good.
I'm praying for everyone down south. You're all showing the strength of America every year. Dont forget about "wake me up when september ends" it's for our fallen.🙏
Am I just completely clueless? Are these guys big stars? If not, I have no idea why. Holy cow! Unbelievable harmonies. Great musicians, great sound, fantastic song. Thanks man!
I discovered untouched talent at my aunts funeral, two of my 2nd cousins sang a few songs that opened the ferment of Heaven. I am making a special trip back to the south to make an offer. America needs to feel this talented brother and sister!
I’ve seen these fine gentlemen perform this song many times, but this is truly the best I’ve heard. Such a fabulous gathering of talent! Prayers for NOLA and the Gulf Coast as Ida brings her destructive winds and rain
I’m late to the party! I just discovered these guys earlier this year and I cannot get enough! I’m seeing them for the second time later this week. They are brilliant!
@@johnjacob4973 Totally agree. Shes talking about laine hardy played it on amreican idol (he won) I never heard of them either until then. Been learning guitar, this is 2nd song I'm learning. Great tune! It had me come across uncle lucius - keep the wolves away. That songs deep being a true story.
I hear almost all music genders like rock, dubstep, some heavy metal, and this. I believe this is country type music. This is just great music to have when driving
I'm a cajun in the mist of this shit even though I call Florida my home now. New Orleans will always be my heart! I miss it! Sometimes I just want to go back. Home
I've never heard of this band, but heard Laine Hardy sing this on American Idol. Now I'm a convert! Can't wait to download this album and hear all their songs.
Thirty miles on the Gulf Stream I hear the south wind moan The bridges getting lower The shrimp boats coming home The old man down in the Quarter Slowly turns his head Takes a sip from his whiskey bottle And this is what he said I was born in the rain on the Pontchartrain Underneath the Louisiana moon I don't mind the strain of a hurricane They come around every June The high black water, a devil's daughter She's hard, she's cold and she's mean But nobody taught her, it takes a lot of water To wash away New Orleans Man came down from Chicago He gonna set that levee right He says, "it needs to be at least three feet higher It won't make it through the night" But the old man down in the Quarter He said "don't you listen to that boy The water be down by the morning And he'll be back to Illinois" I was born in the rain on the Pontchartrain Underneath the Louisiana moon I don't mind the strain of a hurricane They come around every June The high black water, a devil's daughter She's hard, she's cold and she's mean But nobody taught her, it takes a lot of water To wash away New Orleans Thirty miles on the Gulf Stream I hear the South wind moan Bridges getting lower The shrimp boats coming home The old man down in the Quarter Slowly turns his head Takes a drink from his whiskey bottle And this is what he said I was born in the rain on the Pontchartrain Underneath the Louisiana moon I don't mind the strain of a hurricane They come around every June High black water, a devil's daughter She's hard, she's cold and she's mean But nobody taught her, it takes a lot of water To wash away New Orleans I was born in the rain on the Pontchartrain Underneath the Louisiana moon I don't mind the strain of a hurricane They come around every June The high black water, a devil's daughter She's hard, she's cold and she's mean But nobody taught her, it takes a lot of water To wash away New Orleans Nobody taught her, it takes a lot of water To wash away New Orleans
Credit Laine Hardy and American Idol for possibly......finally.....getting these guys introduced to a wider audience! They deserve it and Laine, best of luck to ya in the competition. You're as talented as these guys. 🤞👌👍
Been on of my favorite groups for a long time, I love the folksy songs, and especially the ones that have a Louisiana undertone, they might be from Texas but they give it the Louisiana feeling, take that from a Louisiana girl through and throught
Great song, beautifully played. The voices are top, guitars simple but with great Ideas and feeling. Great slide solo. I like the organ solo that reminds me to the Doors , Bass and drums are great in rhythm section. In the late 70s they would have become a world known top band, I hope they can get it now too.
I was making a playlist of epic hardcore Country music on spotify and this was one of the songs recommended by spotify to add to it. Needless to say, I'm damn glad I added it.

That’s funny when I went to NC I was wearing an LSU hat and they asked what it was and I told them I’m from Louisiana and thay we’re so confused ther brains almost exploded
I'm a Georgia boy,but I have worked in Louisiana,Amazing place and people I love the culture and heritage if I ever leave Georgia that's where I'm headed
I absolutely fell in love with Band of Heathens. My 6 year old grandson turned me on to this song singing it with a microphone. I had never heard of them and went home and pulled up their music. Been listening to them every since!
This is what I would call modern outlaw country. Im more of a rock guy. I love shinedown, rise against, avenged sevenfold and stuff like that but I can’t get enough of this type of music.
I was coming from a job in Lake Charles LA back home to Charlotte NC through New Orleans across Lake Pontchartrain at 3 am 4 years ago and heard this song for the first time on the radio and been a huge fan ever since. l am amazed at the power of this song, huge IMO
My birthday is 4/20 and we still don't have our beaches open. I'm from New Orleans and came here early in life for the beaches. Please say something nice for me. Love you guys!
Standing up right in the middle swaying to the rhythm of that soft smooth riff sipping my bourbon from my flask singing every line that would be the day …
wow can't believe in the last five years, i never heard this song....It took a 17yo kid to bring it out.....Something is wrong in America where the good talent like this is so hidden!!

How guitars 🎸 travel. Looking for a following wind. It's been a long road. Peace ✌ ☮

I heard Levon Helm sing this song many many years ago. I believe he would be extremely impressed to hear these Heathens do it, I am!

Not whatever pop crap most country has become in the last 20 years. Definitely gonna go down the music rabbit hole of these guys
Believe it or not this is a remake of a song from the 80s by Leon Everette
❤me too! ❤😢
They have a live version of it I believe from New Orleans jazz festival and she tried to find it excellent
@@seangilbert2748another rabbit hole for me to hop down
Everyone that loves this Louisiana music definitely loves Whiskey Myers
Thanx to The Castellows I discover this band now. Pure music. Pure truth from the heart. ❤
Me2... nice to discover something new to dig into
Found these guys because the shop I work in has a crew that digs the blues and some country. Im thankful.
Yep, same here. Checked out Levon Helms version, meh…Then found this sublime version. WOW!

Its almost lost art ...
Absolutely......
They cleaned up the Audio a bit in the mix, you can tell there's a reverb added that definitely wasn't natural. But your point still stands.
Blame radio executives for the obscurity of bands like this. Spotify, Pandora, and TH-cam Music opens up a world of great music. The Buggles nailed it in 1980.
Anyone giving thumbs down on this doesn't know great music when they hear it!
My man killing that organ......lawd have mercy that’s epic
Pfft American Idle whatever. I'm here because good music brought me here. Whiskey Myers, Cody Jinks, Ryan BIngman.
That might well be the case but it's not always easy to find it these days.

Screw American Idol. I found this song with out it. Never watched it and I never will. This is real music. It has soul.
The kid on american idol was good tho, I'd suggest you watch him before judging

I love this song. It stops me in my tracks every time I hear it. My dad spent most of his life in Louisiana….
I am so glad for Utube. So many great bands and sings and songs, I never heard of. My play list gets bigger all the time.
This is pure magic, those harmonies! Whoa !!!!
Dude singing upper harmony is an absolute beast
Seriously, is that the piano player?
Do know why I would get to meet someone, though Ive happy to know someone was answering some questions as kids would wonder
Am I just completely clueless? Are these guys big stars? If not, I have no idea why. Holy cow! Unbelievable harmonies. Great musicians, great sound, fantastic song. Thanks man!
They are actually pretty popular. Amazing show for sure
Original is better. My opinion. But this is GREAT.
@@larrysmith1312 l’m so stupid I forgot this is a Band song. And they are one of my all time favorite bands. Getting old blows!
@@RichardHughes15 It ain't a Band song, although it was recorded by the great Levon Helm of the Band in '80.
Told you l was an idiot. Who did the original?
Playing this loud today, stand strong, Nola

We are very resilient in New Orleans. We've had to rebuild many times. We always come back. Hard working people who enjoy life is what we're about.

Thirty miles on the Gulf Stream
I hear the south wind moan
The bridges getting lower
The shrimp boats coming home
The old man down in the Quarter
Slowly turns his head
Takes a sip from his whiskey bottle
And this is what he said
I was born in the rain on the Pontchartrain
Underneath the Louisiana moon
I don't mind the strain of a hurricane
They come around every June
The high black water, a devil's daughter
She's hard, she's cold and she's mean
But nobody taught her, it takes a lot of water
To wash away New Orleans
Man came down from Chicago
He gonna set that levee right
He says, "it needs to be at least three feet higher
It won't make it through the night"
But the old man down in the Quarter
He said "don't you listen to that boy
The water be down by the morning
And he'll be back to Illinois"
I was born in the rain on the Pontchartrain
Underneath the Louisiana moon
I don't mind the strain of a hurricane
They come around every June
The high black water, a devil's daughter
She's hard, she's cold and she's mean
But nobody taught her, it takes a lot of water

How is nobody jamming with them in the audience. I’d be standing up swaying back and forth. Jamming with them. Instantly my favorite song.
Standing up right in the middle swaying to the rhythm of that soft smooth riff sipping my bourbon from my flask singing every line that would be the day …
Believe it or not, there are venues that say you can't do that. You can't tap your toes or anything.
Wow....now this is what you call HARMONY.. LUCKY to have found this band ..so impressed with their music
Y'all need to give to Texarkana Texas. I'll go to Shreveport. Just need live music!!!
This song touches my heart and yeah I'm 2022 anyone
Gotta love that Louisiana sound.
I think American idol and The Voice has always been my favorites proud to say that too... LA Champayne..!
Love this song. Can relate. Lived in Lafayette for 5 years.
First heard this on Pandora Outlaw Country. Bad ass song, Bad ass band!
Wow! Thanks to Laine Hardy's audition on American Idol I looked up Band of Heathens. Just fantastic music! Huge fan!
Such a great song. I grew up on the gulf... I really feel this song.
Nice cover of an old song, great job . Thanks for sharing
Who's the original singer?
I think Levon Helm recorded it first@@stone34
Eight years later and I keep coming back.
So glad I found this soulfulness...damn good

This is about one of my favorite songs of all time. Love the vibe of it.
