He's got a gift no doubt but he doesn't sing empty songs that fit the Nashville agenda of fake country. We'd all love to see him go places but he's too honest in his song writing to fake it. Although I would love to see the Colter Walls and Sturgill Simpsons of the world walk all over the Luke Bryan's and Keith Urbans. Show em what real country music was, is, and should always be.
Just heard the song yesterday and loved it. Probably listened to it at least 100 times in the last 24hrs. Crazy how you can miss something so great but I am grateful that this song crossed my path, thanks Colter awesome voice.
Wow. He writes and sings like he has lived a long time and gone through some rough patches. So much depth and pain. Imagine if Johnny Cash and John Prine had a younger brother. Thanks for posting this great video.
What a future this young man has, sounds so much like a young John Cash when he recorded at Sun Records, love to see him come to the states and record some early J. Cash at Sun in Memphis.
I'm glad I'm not the only one who watched Stone Cold Podcast on Monday. As soon as Brock Lesnar mentioned Colter's name I searched TH-cam for vids. And he was right what a talent this guy is.
This kids the real deal..In the likes of Waylon, Hank, and Johnny..You two shameful dislikers should stay anonymous. Luke Bryan isnt good..I promise ya.
Oh my God I've been listening to him for almost 2 years now and he has so much cool and badass before he even finishes next verse ..really such an amazing talent and sexy as hell ...
@M. S. now hold on there, sonny. Colter Wall has amazing originals but don't go speaking bad against The Man in Black. Both are amazing, both possibly perfect.
The Breweries calls his style haunting. There is a better word to define him. This song reaches into my hillbilly soul. I can see my Great-Grampa singing and his brother playing his fiddle.
he can carry the show by himself.....his backup ain't helping him none. he just had a concert in Atlanta....I missed it, but hopefully he'll come through Charlotte NC next time
This was good, but check out other versions of it on YT where he plays both his guitar & that bass drum. POWERFULLY GREAT! What a talent he is. An old crusty, hard-worn soul who's been reincarnated into a young man's body.
What's crazy is that Colter was less than a month shy of 20 years old when he did this. Sounds like he's been smokin' 3 packs a day & drinking whiskey for 50 years. Guy's just an original.
What type of country music is this considered? Cause I love country music like this but hate all that new modern country shit. Looking to find some similar music.
An odd setting, for sure. If I were to stage an artist alone doing a tune, it'd be on a broke-down couch in a broke-down trailer, in a broke-down town somewhere nowhere
Colter will go places. He's got a one in a million voice.

He’s already famous!
@@janinesnyder8250 ask 10ppl and 9 will have no idea who he is. That's not exactly famous.
So you like being right or what?!?
Johnny Cash…
Just heard the song yesterday and loved it. Probably listened to it at least 100 times in the last 24hrs. Crazy how you can miss something so great but I am grateful that this song crossed my path, thanks Colter awesome voice.
Great to see that one guy and his guitar can still write some kickass music
This song is so badass man, reminds me of good ol Waylon man.
Nothing fake when it comes to his music. Just straight forward, honest and pure. Amazing. Brock Sent me here as well.
What a talent. Loved the guitar, loved the lyrics and what a voice. Best of luck Colter Hall! And black and white video rocks
This dude is a living legend. He may even be up there with Johnny Cash!
Wow. He writes and sings like he has lived a long time and gone through some rough patches. So much depth and pain. Imagine if Johnny Cash and John Prine had a younger brother. Thanks for posting this great video.
Oh lord, every time I watch one of his videos I just love him more and more!

Something very special about this Young Fella, really hope he makes it..
J...
Finally something authentic and gripping in today's day and age.
This kids the real deal..In the likes of Waylon, Hank, and Johnny..You two shameful dislikers should stay anonymous. Luke Bryan isnt good..I promise ya.
100%! Remarkable talent! Check out the Red Clay Strays, their lead singer, Brandon Coleman is another absolute real deal guy👍
This is definitely not that one time I like the 15 second ad more than the video. Colter is just a goddamn gift. What a talent.
Brock brought me here also... Real music for real times. Keep singing the truth.
I love the sound of this song and his voice is wonderful. Oh look how young he is!
what a captivating voice
stumbled across this awesomeness on FB
My God! I cannot get enough of this guy!
legend in the making......this guy has the touch.
So good.
Just heard of Colter on CBC radio, very cool voice. I'm looking forward to hearing more of his music.
Oh my God I've been listening to him for almost 2 years now and he has so much cool and badass before he even finishes next verse ..really such an amazing talent and sexy as hell ...
Colter will go down as one of the greats
INCREDIBLE !! Colter will never top his early stuff. Especially the brewery sessions...
Odd comment
You know singing isn't his only thing, he works a ranch he's a real cowboy...in Canada
@@heathen637Is it? Says who? It's the truth
@@heathen637oh in Canada?...yeah I know exactly who he is. I literally live next door.
Brilliant song, performance and lyrics.
THANK YOU BROCK LESNAR!!! Great artist
Looks of Alan Jackson, voice like Cash one of a kind! Hopin to see ya on the road soon..
Love this song. Great voice
There's something really touching in this song. Love it.
Really fine photography.
Whoever does his staging has the talent. Just wonderful.
the way he says "binnes man"... love it
Truly inspiring. What a voice. Go get some kid
Really great song man!
I feel like he could do a very good cover of God's Gonna Cut You Down. either way very talented
He could do any Johnny Cash cover song well. He has an awesome baritone voice like the Man in Black.
+David L very true
@M. S. now hold on there, sonny. Colter Wall has amazing originals but don't go speaking bad against The Man in Black. Both are amazing, both possibly perfect.
He sounds so similar to johnny when I first heard him sing I was like I never heard this song from johnny before
@@johnfinch3790 haha yes so true!
Good stuff. He plays it up high on the chest like HANK dId.
Brock sent me too... Stone Cold Podcast. Thanks Brock - great artist!
The Breweries calls his style haunting. There is a better word to define him. This song reaches into my hillbilly soul. I can see my Great-Grampa singing and his brother playing his fiddle.
Solid music 👍
Cheers Brock!
Awesome! :)
This rules. Your voice reminds me of Johnny cash and Elvis costellos combined
That was good !!!!
One in a lifetime
Sensationell. Love it
he can carry the show by himself.....his backup ain't helping him none.
he just had a concert in Atlanta....I missed it, but hopefully he'll come through Charlotte NC next time
Yep! My Sasky boy! This how to rock! Country style!
His shadow on the wall is legendary.
He's like a preacher waiting for his congregation to burst through the doors...he's spittin some serious religion
This was good, but check out other versions of it on YT where he plays both his guitar & that bass drum. POWERFULLY GREAT! What a talent he is. An old crusty, hard-worn soul who's been reincarnated into a young man's body.

Take it easy, folks, the dislikes are from out of work drummers.
Brock Lesnar sent me to listen to good music here, good work man :)

I’m here by way of Tyler Childers, loving this resurgence of real... good music.
Reignwolf to Colter Wall to Tyler Childers...lol
Not a bad path to follow.
Cody effin jinks
Not a fan of Childers. Am of Steve Earle n definitely C.Wall. Add Vincent Neil Emerson!
Lyrics:
Sunshine beating on the good times
Moonlight raising from the grave
String band playing worn out honky-tonks
Pretty young thing going dancing in the rain
High heel lady spitting at the nickajack
Business man with a needle and a spoon
Coyote chewing on a cigarette
Pack o' young boys going howlin' at the moon
Hey darlin'!
Sleeping on the blacktop
Hey darlin'!
Running through the trees honey
Hey darlin'!
Leaving for the next town
Less'n my sense catches up with me
Three dead in a crash on the number four
Two witnesses below and up high
Not sure whose will be done
You can call me a sinner for wondering why
Hey darlin'!
Sleeping on the blacktop
Hey darlin'!
Running through the trees honey
Hey darlin'!
Leaving for the next town
Less'n my sense catches up with me
Corn liquor tastes sweeter in this town
Could it be it's the same as the last?
I swear I've seen ya face elsewhere before
Just as familiar as a bottle and a glass
Hey darlin'!
Sleeping on the blacktop
Hey darlin'!
Running through the trees honey
Hey darlin'!
Leaving for the next town
Less'n my sense catches up with me

Ryan Queener
Folk Country or Country Blues Or maybe even Outlaw Country
If you like this check out Townes Van Zandt, Cody Jinks and Whitey Morgan
Ryan Queener Tyler Childers has some good stuff, too. You should check out his song "Coal"
Brock Lesnar sent me and boy was he right about you and your talent.
What guitar is he playing?
Ben Redmond vintage branded parlor guitar, about 300 quid brand new and it he still makes it sound the dogs bollocks!!

Brock Lesnar sent me here cool music I am in Australia
+gavin hing
Straya bro!
Colter. Your as smooth as the finest whiskey. As warm as the hottest sun and as fine as Kate mcannnon.

Vocals remind me of Greg Brown.
Brock lesnar sent me glad he did this is good
Suplex City
Came here by way of Hell or High Water.
Tyler Bauer me too
Brock lesnar has good taste in music ..great singer
Johnny Cash modern day w/o the black suit
Rich P he'll find himself wearing black one of these days
Except he plays guitar like Robert Johnson.
Mary Sparr brought me here.
Lesnar:)
Brock brought me here too
An odd setting, for sure. If I were to stage an artist alone doing a tune, it'd be on a broke-down couch in a broke-down trailer, in a broke-down town somewhere nowhere
Might not be the right acoustics though.
Brock Lesnar sent me here.
Free tip: try 1.25 speed.
