A.J. has always had an incredible voice that knocked you off your feet even when she was a pre-teen. I first encountered her perhaps 15(?) years ago when she was with the Tuttles (Molly, Sully and Dad Tuttle) in the Palo Alto Redwood Bluegrass concert series. Like the best woods that have aged in a quality instrument, her voice and mandolin playing have seriously advanced. Sully’s guitar talents are on the same level as his sister’s - even though he hasn’t yet received the kind of acknowledgement that Molly has. Blue Summit is a wonderful collection of uber talented musicians.
Nick Saban the famous football coach is from the Monongah area. He actually grew up in Carolina which is just a few miles away and he went to school in monongah.
She has a unique style that is so unlike most female voices out there in bluegrass. I've been following them for a few years now and her tone continues to develop.
First listened to AJ's beautiful voice when she was singing with the Tuttles. The strength to hold notes without vibrato or break up is so beautiful against the instruments. Keep it Up AJ!!!
A bunch of talented musicians who gel together, give each other room, prefer one-another bringing people like me who live thousands of miles away the opportunity to experience the joy of a live performance. One mic. Ridiculously good. And AJ Lee’s Harvest Moon with the Comatose Brothers goes to show what an artist she is. ‘Blends in’ just doesn’t do justice to her x-factor
Never thought any singer would ever strike me as heartfelt, pitch perfect, pure and true in bluegrass as AK. I was wrong ! What a Blessing the entire group is!
Sully has nerves of steel! He never even flinches with that bow whipping away by his right eye. 😂 I've been watching AJ sing for over ten years; she's only gotten better, and she and Blue Summit have only gotten tighter since they've played together. Awesome! ❤️
Holy Mackrell!!!!!! This band has elevated so many levels since I last watched them. Unbelievably good. Going to have to keep up with them a little closer from now on.
I've watched AJ and so many of her contemporaries grow up from the kids in bluegrass program to become fantastic, seasoned performers. From her days with the Tuttles (along with Molly Tuttle), she's been so good and she and Blue Summit have become one of my very favorite groups.
I am mainly a big fan of Hard Rock but during the past year I got very interested in Blue Grass ,thank you for sharing this concert! Excellent performance by the lead singer and the band!
So are you! Paving new bluegrass! I remember seeing you sing when you were 7. I saw you on and off through those years as I was on the board, I was always in great awe of your young talent, but now, you are my favorite go to music! Scott Gates blew my mind years ago too. Mr. Sullivan Tuttle is continously amazing! Your fiddle players is genius! I love your material too! Great songwriter! Vocals and mandolin! Arrangements awesome! I love this sound! AJ Lee and band, are the best! You give me great happiness!
They emulate the greats with their grin-inducing picking along with their warm and refreshing harmonies. They truly are an embodiment of such great groups and artists like The Dillards, Earl Scruggs, Lester Flatt, Stanley Brothers, Statler Brothers, and many more!! Keep it up, AJ Lee & Blue Summit!
I just came across this beautiful band...I love AKLee's way of speaking. I am from England, and am not sure which area she comes from. Anyhow, I have been to America years ago, also around Lake Tahoe, a very beautiful area...beautiful wooden houses hidden in the woods. i loved travelling in the USA, now very much under threat, just in case you are not aware of that. Everyone was friendly and helpful, and pretty humble and sweet. Great people,great nation. I hope you save yourselves.
Woody Paul , Riders in the Sky. Just drivin back to Nashville after a gig in Marion Va, never heard you guys before , but so wonderful I’ll be lookin and listenin from now on anywhere I can find you! Fantastic ! Sure hope we might cross trails out there some day. Woody Paul
Holy mackerel! I'm gonna have to stop watching this now or I'm not gonna finish the work day. But I will watch all 23:44 tonight! I think they are just amazing. A.J.'s voice and elocution is really so unique in all the world. It is so perfectly natural and unstrained. Also Sully and Jan are fabulous. I can not wait to hear more of Scott. His voice blending with A.J.s is really wonderful.
Well! The island in Scotland thinks AJ and the guys are just great. Thanks Paste. Great music. Engaging performances all round. Top class interview, as always.
Incredible AJ Lee and Blue summit... Wait a minute did I hear you say your in Squaw valley 🤔 Brilliant I used to own a restaurant nearby Back in the 80s This is brilliant Gillians song at the end was mighty Greetings from Dublin Ireland 🇮🇪
Gotta love this festival. Bundle up and take a ride... still time for what sounds like a great night. Can't wait to check them out at KWMF where no doubt we'll be a lot warmer ;-)
Love the way the police siren kicks in (revenue officers commin' !) right after her mando intro. Could not have planned it better! So funny to see the band members looking at each other as they all realize it. GREAT Bass playing on that one too! Love the syncopation and drive.
This makes my heart hum with the strums, the fiddling, and the harmonizing vocals and more some. All makes a body move, sway, and say, "My ears hear and have become enhanced, AJ Lee & Blue Summit and Paste!" Sharing your gifts is what it's all about! Honoring past musicians, among so many, Emmylou Harris, shows. 🔥🔥❤ 17:50 "...I'm mostly influenced by my Mom..." ❤
Old Faithful is SO GOOD! First guitar steps forward and kills it, then second guitar steps up and plays just as good! What a treat. Love the competition between these two. Notice that the guitar player on the right never looks to the guitar player on the left. I think he's thinking, "You ain't out shredding me, little dog. I'm still the alpha." Old Faithful is fast and full of high level instrument talent, but it's still a melodic fun song. It's not ONLY speedy instrument play'n. I think Billy Strings is great, but Billy mostly shares his impressive speed. Music can be so much more. Music is story, connected melodies with smooth transitions, and sometime surprise transitions. Music is instrument shredding, humor, surprise, voice quality, harmony, and the list goes on. AJ's voice is great to listen to. Hope y'all stay at it. Hope the two guitar brothers can work it out. Tough to have two alpha dogs on the farm. :)
Will you be playing close to Nashville tn? WMOT radio needs to play your music and they also sponsor various venues. Hope to see you in person, love your music.
This girl is pure.
I think she likes girls.
What a breath of magic.
An excellent way to put it!
Such a beautiful voice....love her version of "harvest moon"with comatose brothers
My favorite too
Harvest Moon, my new favorite song!
Me too…lovely voice🙂🙏
My favorite cover of that tune!!

Don’t forget Michael. 😊
The future of Bluegrass is bright.
Also love hearing her sing Harvest Moon with the Comatose Brothers. She's also great on the mandolin !
I love AJ Lee's voice
So glad to have discovered AJ and her band!! Play on!
This band is terrific, love her voice.
If there is a better singer of bluegrass and country right now I haven't heard them. Your crushing AJ!
Still loving Rhonda Vincent!
Rhonda is great for sure.
It’s amazing how good a full acoustic band can sound through only one mic. Very traditional and you get to mix yourself.
I totally agree with you.
One very special condenser mic… and lotta skill to know how to play around it !! Harder to balance.
I am a huge fan of AJ Lee! She is the greatest singer!!!🥰❤❤❤
AJ Lee is simply AMAZING!!!
Nick Saban the famous football coach is from the Monongah area. He actually grew up in Carolina which is just a few miles away and he went to school in monongah.
It’s so much fun listening to AJ’s group. Everyone compliments each other and the whole sound extremely well. Count me as a new fan!
She has a unique style that is so unlike most female voices out there in bluegrass. I've been following them for a few years now and her tone continues to develop.
AJ Never disappoint. Long time fan. Perfection at it's best.
Absolutely incredible strings played right there. Beautiful song!

Been watching AJ and Blue Summit for several years now, and they are getting better all the time. You write great music AJ!
I so agree about the songwriting! She’s simply the best!
Sully has nerves of steel! He never even flinches with that bow whipping away by his right eye. 😂

Great work, great band. I don't know exactly what it is about her voice but she's got something very special.
I am mainly a big fan of Hard Rock but during the past year I got very interested in Blue Grass ,thank you for sharing this concert! Excellent performance by the lead singer and the band!

Fantastic. She's only gotten better with experience. Bluegrass is saving music.
This band has a lot of potential. I like their style. Hope they have a banjo player and dobro player soon.

AJ taking the boys a-strolling
She's done so - from the age of 7
*Sull-lley* (&All'Vem) Soo Smooth !
Nice harmonies and fun to hear a IVminor! Thumbs up!
Just great, A.J.,the band. Maybe a banjo would be the ice of the cake....
