Heard he was doing better and focused on music again so maybe we can still get some more gems like these my dude! Guys a fucking national Treasure. Lol
As do I..sucks he succumbed to the backsliders wine..hopefully at least he puts out something in the future..i believe the guitarist is with Reckless Kelly now..at least he was when I saw them last..
This is the best “group” to come into ANY genre in several years. Their songwriting abilities are insane...and Evan’s singing is exactly what the doctor ordered. Just a tremendous group!
@@spacecadet8843 love Alan Iskov. Dunno the others but will check out. It’s objective but we all know that. I mean I’ll take John Moreland all day nnnnn day.
Listen to Rival Sons. Seriously. They are special and a once in a generation band. They're up there as well. Listen to how Jay Buchanan (their vocalist) sung the national anthem. th-cam.com/video/OZYxTi4EKuc/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/2kakGAlB1zU/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/qQ-nyBIbV0Q/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/MGhMEVMgsZM/w-d-xo.html Listen to their songs "All that I want", "Jordan", "Feral Roots", "Sacred Tongue", "Good Things" and "Secret" Jay Buchanan i would argue is the best vocalist right now. Absolutely amazing natural talent and unlike a lot of rock singers he knows how to project his vocals and uses proper mic technique.
So glad to hear that Evan is sober, doing well, back with his wife Staci, and excited about touring again. For a while there it was anyone's guess which way he could go.
@@ryancameron9411 I was dead ass wrong and they even had a baby. Thank you for flagging this so I can delete! What an awesome happily ever after for the Felkers. To my knowledge, and that ain’t worth shit, I’m not sure if the group has gotten together at all. It looks like he is focusing on staying healthy and loving the ladies in his life. Which is a massive win vs the path some people with addiction issues go down. If the group got together again and didn’t even play out, but just recorded new stuff, that’d be icing on the cake for all of us.
I always come back to this version. Love how you can catch a grin out of him on a couple lines. You can feel it, it's real, and it's how music should be.
Evan’s work and his influential and wholly unique gifts don’t get enough credit in this mainstream world of mass-produced insomnia, but this is one of the great country lyrics in the history of the genre. It’s a brilliant tapestry of lyrics woven into a powerful story painted like watercolors in the mind.
Been listening to country music since the 90's and I just recently found these guys. Easily one of my top 5 artists of all time. There's just something about their music that makes it so unique, and the vocals play a big part. It's soothing, it's pure, and it's perfect music to put on in the background whether you're doing stuff around the house, going to bed, or straight jammin' out. No need to worry about skipping. Love these guys.
There is no doubt in my mind that Evan Felker is the greatest American poet of the early 21st century. (so far) (And "Lorrie" is a reference to the musical, "Oklahoma".)The guy is a genius.
Evan Felker & Turnpike Troubadours are the real deal Americana! They craft their music from the heart. They live it, they write it, they sing it loud n proud! This band is true to their roots. Keep it up boys!
Love this version. Very cool way he’s strumming this. Heavy on the bottom strings. Deep resonant sound. He sings it in the same fashion too, doesn’t reach for high notes during chorus. Very cool ! He’s as good a lyricist as I’ve heard in many years. Hope he gets it all back together soon.
He definately needs some help on the guitar, from an accomplished guitarist I can’t stand the picking pattern it’s the same as like 8,000 others songs. With that said thank god he can write and sing because that’s the hard stuff right there. I can play the guitar finglerstyle doing bass and treble at the same time like a piano, but I can’t sing so here I am. The only guitar player to make it big is tommy Emmanuel.
I have been listening to them for the past two years and I think their song writing and delivery is awesome…the house fire was the first song I ever heard..very hard not to like these guys…on smoke and lies is pretty badass too..
The thing about Evan is that he knows how to play every note and sing every lyric. You can see it in his eyes. Also, this guy needs to stop singing songs about my life, or I'll ask for royalties
Back here again after a couple or more years. I don't know what it is about this video that moves me so. The sky and the guitar chords mostly. Great song. Great video.
All I can say is beautiful!!! Precious song!! All I can think of is Johnson Hatfield and Roseanne McCoy!! Love that couldn’t go more wrong!!! But played by a handsome silky voiced Evan!! And absolutely over moon to hear of you and Stacis beautiful little girl !!! God bless!! Love from Maine!!!
It feels like he’s just venting to an old buddy about this relationship he just got out of, and how crazy ironic it all was. He’s such a good story teller man
I’m glad Evan Felker is sober. You can see his struggles allover the body language. Can’t wait for what comes next with Turnpike coming together again.
The first time i watched this group preform was in 2011 in Kearney, NE. And I told my nephew who was with me, "this guy plays a guitar just as good as Brad Paisley.
Miss these guys a lot..
Man they have some gems
Heard he was doing better and focused on music again so maybe we can still get some more gems like these my dude! Guys a fucking national Treasure. Lol
EVAN is BAAAAACK!!!! In a MAJOR way!!!!!👍👍👍

No way, I hadn’t seen that! Can’t wait to see what comes next for them 💜
Any update on Evan or the band?
@@cgunz how do you know this? I thought they are back together
@@cgunz Evan is actually back with his wife and they had a kid together. Excited and optimistic for their return

what happened?

Yes. Let's hope he get's his life back in order, and comes back better than ever.
@@brettwilliams666 as bad as this is to say, what he's going through is going to make for some great songwriting

^^this guy gets it. This may be the best description of this song that I’ve read.
I don't know if there is a better way to put it. Very well said.
i could listen to this cover over and over every single day good lord lorrie i love you!

When he sings, I feel like he means it wholeheartedly. That goes for any song they do. 🤘
God bless Evan Felker
This guy should be a superstar. Sad.
His demons got the best of him. Hoping he is getting through it.
He's a superstar to me.

Nice to hear an actual song. Damn good to boot. Rarer and rarer nowadays.

Please don’t ever call this anything but country music again
I miss the band already
Honestly, my favorite solo of all time in the history of ever!❤️
There's no solo, my friend
He just does fills with the harmonica, but no solo
Or did you mean your favorite solo performance?
Love this version.
Very cool way he’s strumming this. Heavy on the bottom strings.

@@HeidiFegleslol, you think you're more accomplished than Evan? You must be pretty famous.
Great stuff!
Still incredible. LONG LIVE THE TURNPIKE TROUBADOURS
Keaton Riley amen
Amazing that this song only has 105k views. Listened to this for over a year now. So underrated.
Keith Thurmer sooo damn good man
wow! great song.. i grew up right by Sevier County, Dequeen, and Broken Bow.. love the references.
Eric Sullivan and that is something to be proud of Sir
Still come back to this with tears In my eyes. Man I miss Turnpike
The Layne Staley of Country music
I have been listening to them for the past two years and I think their song writing and delivery is awesome…the house fire was the first song I ever heard..very hard not to like these guys…on smoke and lies is pretty badass too..
Love that harmonica!!
Yes.
Gran canción y gran banda los Turnpike Trobadours, los conocí en el Austin City Limits y me encantaron, ahora son de mis favoritos ❤️
Timeless music is so special! This will NEVER get old. We have all back slid a little. Keep it real Troub's!
This dude is incredibly talented!
The thing about Evan is that he knows how to play every note and sing every lyric. You can see it in his eyes. Also, this guy needs to stop singing songs about my life, or I'll ask for royalties
Saw this live at the Ryman Auditorium and it was the best experience of my life. Turnpike put on a hell of a show.
Wow I remember going to family reunions and seeing him before her started touring. Glad to see people really enjoy his music!
Back here again after a couple or more years. I don't know what it is about this video that moves me so. The sky and the guitar chords mostly. Great song. Great video.
Man, it just does not get any better than this.
This Dude is gonna be one of my lifers. I like him in Turnpike but, I just realized it's him that I dig.
Evan Felker SHALL be back! GUARANTEED!!!!
Red Ants Pants is sooooo fun. Saw Turnpike there for the first time several years ago and got to meet Evan briefly. So damn fun.
I love this song and I am so happy Evan and Staci are together Beautiful couple.
All I can say is beautiful!!! Precious song!! All I can think of is Johnson Hatfield and Roseanne McCoy!! Love that couldn’t go more wrong!!! But played by a handsome silky voiced Evan!! And absolutely over moon to hear of you and Stacis beautiful little girl !!! God bless!! Love from Maine!!!

A great song and great sound!
I’m glad Evan Felker is sober. You can see his struggles allover the body language. Can’t wait for what comes next with Turnpike coming together again.

I’ve stood in that doorway and I’ve heard them words
Prayin' good things for you Evan
Evan, we all miss you so much.

eric, I have friends that did live in Kearny, NE. Now live in Clay Center, NE .
Beautiful song 👏👏👏👏
I'm so happy that there's a living to be made in music that doesn't have to take the Nashville record label bath.
Welcome back sir
Dark, dark lyrics, welcome to the real world, he is the antagonist, Lorie is the hero in this somber tale.
Perfect
Awesome-
❤❤❤❤❤
Sooo good! 😭
man that guitar!
Amazing
Welcome Back
Sounds good Evan!
amazing nothing else to say
Felker rocks....
Why does Travis Scott have a burger and this man right here doesn't......were in crazy times. Family and DAMN GOOD music is all we got. That's it 💪🤜🤘👊
Harmonica hits the same as Bob Dylan’s The Times They are a Changing. Lyrics do too.
Heartbreaking...
Everybody has their demons, just some are worse than others. Hope he handles them
