This group and chris has been a huge comfort to me over the last year. My wife left me, and the sound of this group gives me the heart felt feeling of the past. God had must have blest chips with that voice. It reaches the heart every time I hear him. 👍👍👍
Bluegrass music is a genre of American roots music that developed in the 1940s in the United States Appalachian region. The genre derives its name from the band Bill Monroe and the Blue Grass Boys. ... Monroe characterized the genre as: "Scottish bagpipes and ole-time fiddlin'.
@@toadfax7448 So you copied that bit directly from the Wikipedia introductory paragraph and I assume without reading anything else 😂 It's not entirely accurate, especially trying to use it in the sole context you did.
The point I was making is that the Blue in Bluegrass came from the name of the band, not Blues music. Yes...Bluegrass was influenced by the blues (primarily Delta Blues...which I didn't know...thanks for pointing that out), but the roots of that style of music go back a couple of centuries. Before being popularized, Bluegrass was considered folk music. Irish folk music is largely credited as the biggest influence.
He's probably the only person who can sing the songs that chris originally sang. Didn't think it was possible to find a replacement, but they did it. The newer songs are great too
Thanks for being in Detroit, Michigan and performing Live on WDET's Acoustic Cafe witn Ann & Rob during the fundraiser. You're appreciated & you guys sound great! May God continue to Bless you guys and gal, keep playing. 👍👃👍🎵☺

My mind is blown ! I’ve loved this song for years and just now watching the video do I realize it is NOT Chris Stapleton WOW that singer sounds great I love it !!!!
Aside from a few, most of their songs seem to reach out and touch an era of my life. I constantly get asked in traffic "Who is that!?" Keep it up, your music has saved me, and y'all have already responded to me personally, I love y'all, purchasing tickets to see y'all in Englewood, CO. Safe travels.
The Steeldriver’s long way down lyrics I thought that that you were sent from heaven You had me floating on a cloud but tonight My sky is falling and it’s a long way down it’s a long way down Now you can’t lie cause girl I caught you You can’t deny you’ve been messing around And where your going there ain’t no ice water And it’s a long way down it’s a long way down Ohh so far down that it ain’t got a bottom thought you had wings But I guess you ain’t gottem falling angel don’t look down Oooooooooooh it’s a long way down Don’t look to meee to be your saviour girl we both know that your soul is (brown?)

Greetings baby !!! As our 10th year anniversary rolls around I think of you all the time !! Our children are good and I love you baby !!! BRAD LEE HOUGHTON
Don't know where they filmed this but it takes me back to the South Carolina of my youth where our summers were spent swimming in the creeks and running wild in the woods.
Gary Nichols is an excellent replacement for Chris, Gary has always been in the band since its inception and it only seems proper to have him step up as lead vocalist.
absolutely love this song....wish it was on the cd I had bought....great band...so glad my angels brought me across their path. Would love to see them in person.....I wouldn't be able to sit n watch them...my feet n legs & Spirit wouldn't allow that..!!
I have one bluegrass song called "Out There On The Yard", Jeremy Dean of The Nashville Hit Songwriter Series At The Bluebird, cowrote. Out of everything I have it's the only one that sounds bluegrass. And it Rocks! More than that I lived it. It's about being in prison, and sentenced to die. Jeremy, stayed on me The SteelDrivers cutting the song. Was back when Stapleton was with them. Life..sometimes ya' get caught up, and you're just too busy. By the time I'd gotten around to discussing this further, Chris had left. The Velvet Blue, picked it up and their frontman left. Sometimes ya' just can't win. But, I'd be just as pleased to hear it from this lineup. They Rock! There's a few different videos on here of Jeremy Dean doing "Out There On The Yard"..with intro..without intro. All are good. Ya'll check it out. These guys could tear it up!
Watched this guy in person in poplar bluff, mo.. sometime in the 2010's... He's got a heavy shadow over him, replacing and all.. but he sounds just as good In person.
Beautiful song. Chris Stapleton is irreplaceable but Gary Nichols is great is the best thing that could have happened to Steeldrivers after Stapleton. Love from Pakistan 😍😍😍
I'm new on the scene 😊 and I can't get enough! I thought this was The Steeldrivers w/ Chris Stapleton. Who is the new singer and what was the last album that Chris Stapleton was on with The Steel Drivers?
Tammy’s harmonies is like that sweet tea that just tops it all off
This is a criminally under-rated song
You said it!
Nailed it!
Even crazier if you know Gary’s story after the Steeldrivers. God bless him.
Can't get enough of the SDs!!! The new singer is great. Keep on making that good music!!!
New? Video is 9 years old 😂
@@buddahGump Newer than Chris Stapleton. Sorry it had to be explained to you, genius. 🙄
This is how music is suppose to sound. Great job Gary Nichols, along with every member of The SteelDrivers.
Legit bluegrass vocal power, and fantastic band. Great songwriting. The whole enchilada.
man. this never gets old. so much twang and killer harmonies like at the end there
Wait. What? This is Chris Stapletons old band? Well, learn something new everyday. Such a kick ass band
People are always comparing one artist or singer to another. Music is music, appreciate it for what it is. This is gold
Everyone has different ears , everyone has different hears .
This group and chris has been a huge comfort to me over the last year. My wife left me, and the sound of this group gives me the heart felt feeling of the past. God had must have blest chips with that voice. It reaches the heart every time I hear him. 👍👍👍
Shawn Finley sorry your wife left..but she’s probably the loser..better times coming if you let them in...🇨🇦🇨🇦
Sorry bro...There's someone else out there who won't mind the things she didn't like. Chin up CHAMP! On to the next one!
Life is about change, embrace it and try to enjoy the new view from where you stand.
I'm so glad I found The SteelDrivers ❤️. I share y'all's music all over the place
The SteelDrivers are one of those bands where I can’t find a song that I don’t like
2nd that.
Every one of em...kick sphincter....one of my favorite groups...kinda bluegrass rock or something...
Ain't none
So rare and awesome 🤗
Can't be done !
As a music fan and maker I love this from the first riff! Groove is sweet, and when that first vocal kicked in I was sent through the roof! Props!
THERE IS NOTHING THAT GOD AND JESUS COULD TEACH ME TONIGHT BUT THIS.
One of the coolest songs I ever heard ! Had to learn my own acoustic version of it and sing it every day 🤠
I thank the Lord the day a find you guys, long live to your gifted talent!
Bluegrass meets Country meets Soul meets Blues...nicely done!
i like this kind of music. I might have been a southern boy in my previous life.
Bluegrass is already the meeting of country and blues music 😂 hence the term

Omg this is amazing and the singer is just unbelievable
So good, even without the mighty chops of Chris Stapleton, this new singer is bonkers, Steeldrivers ftw!
He's probably the only person who can sing the songs that chris originally sang. Didn't think it was possible to find a replacement, but they did it. The newer songs are great too
that is chris' voice, lol
no one gave Gary any credit for being his on singer / replacing chris and also being a mean mother effer on the 6 string. something chris was not.
@@anekretia nope it's Gary Nichols

A Great band is always going to be a Great Band,people come and go.A Great Band has a Soul that it imparts to a new member.

Thanks for clearing that up. I couldn’t figure out why Chris wasn’t there but his voice was lol.
@@jarivesterinen haha that's awesome!😂😂😂☠
Gary didn’t join the band until 2010, after Chris left.

These guys make me really appreciate bluegrass.
Seeing these guy tonight at the Orange Peel in Asheville, NC can't wait
Why is this not viral?????¿?¿¿
Come on Tennessee let's make this Viral! 😊
love his voice
I'm new on the scene 😊 and I can't get enough! I thought this was The Steeldrivers w/ Chris Stapleton. Who is the new singer and what was the last album that Chris Stapleton was on with The Steel Drivers?
Chris was on The Steeldrivers 2008 and Reckless 2010 albums. Chris left before Reckless was released, so Gary toured and promoted it.
Amazing work as always.
Bout time we had some dang good music to hear instead of the so called country music of today
I think they are classified as a bluegrass band.
saw them this weekend at the dorflinger sanctuary best natural Amphitheatre .. they are great
Música de excelente qualidade! Saudações do Brasil.🥰❤
This is amazing please come to the UK
I had never heard them .. first thought was sounds like Stapleton ✌ good stuff
Chris used to be the lead singer of this band. Their music was/is amazing even though he went solo. 😊
Stoked about seeing them at the Ritz in January
Wow!!! Im impressed 🙌
it is a long way, they were great and still are
This song has absolute soul.
I LOVE this stuff..
so glad for the voice... I wouldn't have knew about you. just subscribed and will be buying some albulms
