It’s been a whirlwind year for Sierra Ferrell. Last September, Ferrell won the Emerging Artist award at the Americana Honors & Awards, and just last week, she was nominated in three categories for the 2024 Americana Honors & Awards. Ferrell released her latest album, Trail of Flowers, on March 22, and made her Grand Ole Opry debut before embarking on tour in support of the album.
Despite all the attention, Ferrell stays grounded on her mission to be “a beacon of light” for people through her music. During a tour stop in the Twin Cities to play a show at First Avenue in Minneapolis, Ferrell and her band visited The Current for a studio session hosted by Jessica Paxton. Watch and listen to the full interview above.

Such a wonderful voice, she can make an audience go wild with a phrase, a trick, a break in her voice. Hank Williams incarnate
This young lady has a voice like Joplin. Instantly recognizable. She is going to go far. Very far.
Best concert I have ever seen…I have seen the greats. She is something else.
Amen ❤
Nearly 50. Could not be more thrilled to have found her and her music. We need this positivity so much!
old man of 67 years here...I have not found anything worth listening to on the radio or TV, I find myself digging for new music a bit everyday on you tube.. the moment I found you I was totally blown away, your honesty comes through your songs, your stories of loss are felt in your songs, youre just a cool spirit that I think everyone should get to know.. I agree with you with the way the world is turning, I'm a conservative, I wish we had two better presidential candidates than what we have now..but it is what it is.. oh well just keep doing you and the rest of us will be waiting for your news music to listen to!!
Ignorant voters are the route of the problem. Look at the criminally incompetent jokers they re-elect. for congress.
what the fuck does any of that have to do with anything old man? did you eat too much lead
Mike, yes we are being manipulated, why else would we only be given 2 choices, someone else is leading this country , it's not sleepy joe!
What?
Yes, a real dearth of good music nowadays. I recommend Sarah Shook's album called Years. And songs Nail and Home Fires from her album Sidelong.
She was a local legend just a few years ago here in WV. This is awesome! 😊
She’s a breath of fresh air. So unique and talented. I hope she continues to rise and share her music. Looking forward to what the future holds for Sierra. This was a great interview!
her voice is so special...but I am always just as impressed at how much the camera LOVES her...and how comfortable she is in front of it. She can look right down the lens and connect...not many people can do that. i was really impressed with her "ad read" too. Sierra, your soul shines through in everything you do. Thanks. stay strong
She's just a ray of sunshine, I saw her perform last year when she had lost her voice but her singing still sounded so good even though she could barely talk between songs. She had to take a break and her band took over and played some amazing instrumentals for a while, the AC was broken at the venue and I was sweating like crazy but despite all of this it was still probably the best concert I've been to!
Gems on vhs introduced her music to me
Me too, love Gems on vhs
Same. In Dreams got me a couple of years ago. Down the rabbit hole ever since. And oh, to see her live. There's something that can't be explained but it's there loving, helping, and giving.
My new Stevie .
Was so blessed to see her May 16, 2024 Webster Hall NYC
Me too!! Then the next night in Forrest Hill Stadium..though Webster Hall was so intimate ..the best !
Sierra Ferrell is my soul sister.
She's a wonderful artist and a beautiful soul. It's so good she's enjoying things, as she admits she's strong and vulnerable. I'd be lost without her music, she's a healer.
Keep speaking truth, you are clearly in the know, thank goodness. Love your music. Thank you for being so honest.
All I can say is YES Sierra Ferrell I understand all you talk about and agree 💝 you are humble and your music brings me happiness like I had listening to country music growing up in the 80’s. I’m 49 now and enjoy your music so much even my husband and children love it too. I can relate to how you think and sing. God bless you. Save time in your busy life to garden. That’s my favorite place too. Thank you Jessica for such a wonderful interview! Blessings! 🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷
Beautiful speaking voice & singing voice, we love You Sierra!
I have never heard the interviewer before, Jessica Paxton, great questions and insight as an interviewer 👏 Love what Sierra said about how hearts speak to each other before people ever have a conversation... yes they do
i love you Sierra Elizabeth Ferrell!
I love her 😊❤
Thank you for the interview. I absolutely treasure this woman. I can't say enough about her...
Inspiring and adorable.
Great interview!!! Not only do I love Sierra's music but also what she stands for ❤
😂
@@TomFoolery767 jealous much? 😂
How can you be anything but in love with this young lady. Miss Sierra just remember where you came from and the hard work you put in to this journey.
What a wonderful person. The music, the voice , the songs , the fashion, the message. ❤❤❤
Yup ❤
Most precious❤. Such talent, so sweet, and so humble! Very glad she’s made it!!
Yes humble - so wonderful
You inspire me Sierra!!
Thanks for the interview Jessica. Sierra is the most and her band is ALLthat.
Gosh, I love watching and listening to Sierra. What an incredible human
A long time coming.
followed from day dot amazing artist 🙏🙏🙏 speaks the truth now💯
You have been a blessing to this Traveler struggling rgt now. Thanks for your peace and strength. 🎉🎉
They say never meet your hero’s- not true here.SF is just as interesting and beautiful as her music. In these shit show times how lucky are we that Sierra has risen.? What a joy.
Sierra is our "American Dream!"
Interviewing is a real skill … some people got it & some people don’t
very ambiguous comment lol
Really great interview!! The interviewer is fantastic with really good questions. 👏
🤔
Beautiful interview
Great interview, Jessica , a great job. One of my favorite musicians Mz . Ferrell hopefully see you here in Maine.
I liked to hear the feedback the host was giving Sierra. Next visit we could maybe have shorter questions to give Sierra more time to flow?
The interviewer seemed like a big fan…if I were sitting opposite this talented woman, I would be blabbing a bit as well. I enjoyed her questions.
Wow! Haha. I've never seen Sierra dress so casually. She's usually wearing something really freaky-cool and wild. I guess even cultural icons need to take a break sometimes. 🤣 Now matter what she's wearing though, she's always a super-sweet, positive cutie-pie.
❤🎉❤
Her story kinda reminds me of Jewel. Who stayed true to her roots also
Sierra is a once in a generation artist! So new, so fresh, real and yet so familiar too. Sometimes I think, all the glitz, glamor and so down to earth, Dolly Parton 2.0. She's going to be around for a long, long time.
I am also a personal graveyard for orchids😅
Her eyes look like she’s not on hard drugs here! Yay!
Love her music and overall fashion style as mentioned in the interview...But that gold/silver? tooth crown makes her look like she's missing a tooth or tooth decay. Very distracting from her beautiful face.
To Sierra: you have a beautiful smile, please reconsider the unneeded tooth "BLING".
I saw Sierra live last year and she was amazing! Love her music and her voice is so comforting. BUT… this interview is honestly tiresome. Can we please stop with the trauma and victim hood heroics. We all have challenges in life, and some are greater than others. I too was homeless, abused, and addicted and you know what, I pulled my boots straps up and got through it. I still go catatonic from memory almost daily but this doesn’t make me a hero. That experience makes you creative in way that is special to you. Sometimes it’s better to sit and be, and not proselytize. I tend to enjoy art that doesn’t tell me how to think, but how to think for myself. We all have special talents, and it’s grossly unfortunate there are some that don’t express human empathy but really at the end of the day we all individually flush toilets.
Interviewer could have focused on her
music quality greatness. But obviously had no clue.
Not a good interview.
Hey Sierra when you stop giving power to your past it loses efficacy
I come to TH-cam for amateur psychological analysis; thanks so much for providing! If you don't want to hear what people have to say, click on another video. The cool thing about people is everyone gets to live their own life and process the tribulations the way they see fit. She was asked the questions and she answered them, eloquently and thoughtfully. Enjoy your day.
or maybe, just MAYBE, this is what art is all about. It's an outlet to process trauma, to overcome it. Maybe talking and singing about it helps give it less power. Maybe someone hearing her songs or her story for the first time resonates with it and it helps them through their trauma. Just a different perspective.
That reporter look like she has the mainge
It's alopecia areata and you are rude
Who keeps hurting her?
Playing the victim perhaps
ah, that is hurtful.
Perhaps you don't know what she's gone through, what she keeps private, what she only alludes to. Why can't you just accept that she's been hurt and appreciate her being honest about it rather than automatically assume she's a phony?
I’ve learned that people who use these terms usually have issues themselves, seek help please.
I’m talking to you, anon.
She’s an empath. I know how they feel
Rare spiritualness few have. More Sensitive to people and the world around.
Reminds me of elvis
Yes !
