Filmed by Jay Strausser at Suwannee Hulaween in Live Oak, FL
Molly says: "I have loved the story of Alice in Wonderland since I read the book as a kid and played the Queen of Hearts in my school play. I chose to cover ‘White Rabbit’ back in the fall of 2020 for a live stream of songs by San Francisco Bay Area artists. Grace Slick of Jefferson Airplane is from Palo Alto, CA, just like me, and this song gives me the nostalgic feeling of growing up, but recording it also pushed my band forward into new territory musically. This is the first song I have arranged, produced and recorded from the ground up with the band members that I've been on the road with all year. Golden Highway-aka Shelby Means, Dominick Leslie, Kyle Tuttle, Bronwyn Keith-Hynes-and I have formed a strong musical bond after playing almost 100 shows together this year. Each band member brought ideas to the table, making this a truly collaborative effort."

Imagine wandering around a festival and stumbling into this. So fantastic.
That would be about like wondering around Epcot and walking up on Future Corp. I did that in 1986. They rocked. Hard.
Imagine just wandering around in the woods while high as fuck and stumbling across this...
stumbled into a drum circle under a tent one time. that was a trip, and then some
I just saw them a few days ago at a relatively small venue in Columbus, Ohio called Skully's music diner. While I watched them play, I kept wondering why they weren't in larger venues. It just dawned on me I should thank goodness they aren't. I got to see an incredible, hard driving bluegrass band perform world-class music about ten feet from me. PLEASE DON'T STOP PLAYING THE SMALLER VENUES!!! I love a big arena or festival spectacle, but this is the way live music is really meant to be seen. Thank you all for a wonderful experience.
I hope they visit Cleveland sometime!
I saw them yesterday in Indy at The Vogue. It was absolutely packed. It was a great show but I would’ve enjoyed it more if I could actually see the stage.
Wow! I think I'm going to get a ticket for San Diego. I rarely love any new bands but this is STUNNING
Lucky
After 40 -50, years the best version. Perfect interpretation, musically and visually.
What is the original? I keep telling my wife this is the melody to an older song and she thinks I’m wrong lol.
@@bvictory5698 They're doing a cover of a very well-known song from the 60's called "White Rabbit," by Jefferson Airplane. They performed at the original Woodstock, n were a huge part of the 60's San Francisco scene... 😊
Molly is simply the best thing we've got in this crummy existence right now.
Agree!! 🎉
Y'all mothafuckas need JEEZUS!
That fiddle solo left the Devil in it's dust. Sultry FIRE!
"As if Georgia wasn't enough..."
That fiddler may look like an innocent Alice, but she's got soul!❤
Instant chills! 💃🏻 Wasn't expecting that to be so... EVERYTHING.
Yeah Jared Leto is pretty talented
..that banjoing is pretty good too !
Now that was both musically interesting and visually entertaining. Whoever made the costumes deserves special mention.
Is this at Sham?
Thank you china
There are few artists that can do this justice, but Molly is one of them. Remember what the doormouse said…
@@markboehme Check out the Elephant Revival cover of this tune.. I prefer it over this version.. This song is supposed to leave you wanting more.. This version doesn't do that.. It shouldn't have the mandolin and banjo solos.. The violin solo was the only part of this song that I actually enjoyed.. The Elephant Revival version is short and sweet like it's supposed to be and the overdriven distorted banjo sound is amazing.. It sounds better playing the lead guitar part than a guitar does.. Their cover of Pink Floyd's Have a Cigar is also the best cover of that song I've ever heard for the same reason.. That overdriven distorted banjo sound sounds better than the guitar on the original recording.. I'd love to hear that banjo players take on some Clapton, SRV, or Hendrix..
@@MarkLadaYou just don't get accoustic music and textures.
I remember when the Airplane was largely considered folk. I still have a thing for Grace Slick. That voice, oh my. This is a beautiful cover.
Gris gris gumbo ya ya!
Up there with the Slick
Sorry to disappoint, but it was The Great Society who originally performed this along with Somebody To Love!!!!!!!!
Grace was imitating the band's original singer. BTW. Her singing was removed from CD version. Gotta get the original vynil
Utter rubbish.
SHE WROTE THE BLOODY SONG and performed it with another band previously.
I think they used her original recording also.
Airplane just put a backing track to it .
And that was probably the a Wrecking Crew .
Keep the hippie spirit alive.🎉❤
What a bunch of whacked out weirdos, I totally love it!! Great performance by all, keep doing what makes you happy. Let’s all do our best to keep live music around.
I feel right at home.
💯
Aw eff-off you tedious bigot.
Imagine if they individually recorded.
Listened with headphones, awesome.
Anything Molly Tuttle is Golden!
Ain’t that the truth
This was my first time hearing them!! Loved the arrangement of this song! They changed it but not to much and added their own style!! Loved it!!
Kick ass you guy rock
Wouldn't it be great if they made a whole album of classic rock covers. Truly the best version of this song I have ever heard..
They are a very talented group, but the costumes make this phenomenal. They fit in with the hallucinationatory tone of the song.
Yeah great band but calm down on "best version ever" lol .. even them know that theyre not ..
Loved this. Idk how I got here but I'm glad I did.
I saw you playing in a band in my friends garden birthday party in Geneva, IL in 2010. That was a great party but this one looks better. The Red Queen was the right choice.
What a visionary! Waste talent on remaking 50 year old songs instead of new music.
First time I heard White Rabbit I was 14 years old, cleaning the house and listening to the radio. Never heard anything like it and had to stop and sit down in amazement. Thanks for a great rendition.
I'm blown away. What a fabulous bunch of musicians.
Open your mind to more great musicians
Wow just Wow. I am old enough to have seen both Jefferson Airplane and Starship do this song live. This blew me away.
Grace Slick stole this song from the band she was in before Jefferson Airplane.. There's an interview on here where she talks about it..
@@MarkLada I wouldn't say "stole". After all, she composed the song by herself - and Jefferson's 'rabbit' was arranged differently.
They went from airplane to starship because of cocaine 😂
I missed Airplane at Monterey being 7 years old at the time, but did catch Starship there for the redux in '87. Great show. This is a great cover, I'd love to hear what Grace thinks of this video.
@@elizabethbaker7185 Cocaine is a hell of a drug.. Wanna go to Colombia and do some? We can get enough to last us a month for $20..
That's how you turn a cover into an original masterpiece.
Molly, you guys have developed a new genre- psychedelic bluegrass! That's some real backwoods trippin' right there!
Solos were awesome, costumes are out of this world!
Yah, fun band to be noticed.🎶🐇
Even her vibrato takes me back to Grace's. This amazing.
Acidgrass.
That’s not new, the psychedelic movement took a lot of their songs from southern blues and bluegrass.
The House of the rising sun is one of the most famous songs ever written, it’s origins are in bluegrass, it blew up after the Animals redid the Bob Dylan version of it.
Bluegrass is one of the oldest styles of American music. All American music styles have borrowed from it
That's got to be my favorite version of this song. Shared t with all my friends and family.
The whole idea of doing covers in costume can’t get enough thank you Molly great band
Ummm….are you THAT Jorma??? If I need to explain, you’re not.
If you like that idea, you should attend Hulaween one year. That's where this was filmed, and the concertgoers and musicians all definitely get into the Halloween spirit!
They did the whole show in costume.
Gary, wrong. It’s Jorma. Hi Jorma. Loved your Covid series. Hope you still have 5 cats.
Hello Gary I love your tree and no
Great musicians, great costumes, one camera, one mic, people roaming around the background. . .what a perfect combo!
One take too. Not easy
And the rabbit!!
Just when you think: "Hey...There's no actual White Rabbit in frame!", You realize He's been there all the time. Very Psychedelic!
The very idea of mixing psychedelia with bluegrass sounds crazy but this version absolutely works. All the musicians are incredible and Molly's vocal is sublime. I liked the costumes too.
Psychedelia, i would argue, has its roots in Bluegrass... Case in point: Grateful Dead...
if you want psychedelia in your bluegrass go listen to billy strings, particularly tracks like home, heartbeat of america, or highway hypnosis! dude goes to some far out places.
@@phlubblebubble This is very true.
Sounds crazy???? Well not to me.. Seems logical and proportional.
@@eck413 It would be interesting to see a bluegrass take on Grace by Country Joe and the Fish. I'm sure it would be logical and proportional.
Wow, that was one of the best performances of this song since Jefferson AIRPLANE in the 60’s.
Beautiful cover , well done 👍
A molecular delight. Don't forget to feed your heart, too.
I am definitely old enough to remember the original version of “White Rabbit,” and this version is wonderful and quite surprising to me. Love it!
Do you mean the original by the Great Society or the later version by the Jefferson Airplane?
Long live Grace Slick!!!
The original version Grace did with "The Great Society," a band, with her husband, and brother-in-law before she joined The Jefferson Airplane .
Here's that version

@@mtgreenwoodbustout Why did nobody tell me about the Great Society version until just now? Thanks, that was weird in the best way.
@@jhandle4196 Oh, daaaaamn…. THAT WAS AMAZING 💜💙💜 Thank you!!!! 😁👌
That fiddle solo is other-worldly! It's like there's an unobstructed pathway from her feelings to the strings.
fr it gave me chills
For the inspiration for this (like White Rabbit) check out Hot Tuna and Papa John Creach :)
@@getwthenewage4871 This curmudgeonly guitarcheopteryx reckons, nah yeah, yeah mate
...the Alice's Restaurant Massacree - Arlo Guthrie, was great stuff as well as Comin' into Los Angeles
I recall from my childhood with a way cool uncle who played me some great music & influenced me
greatly then & still does now. This is fantastic - especially the fiddle solo - jawdroppin' fair-dinkum wow!🤯
🪃Didyabringyabongalong Station 455,000sq.a🎸Central Queensland🦘I'm all rockn'roll but bluegrass is🤘
Breath-taking. 6 out of 5 stars.
That banjo is insane!! 🤩🤩
That’s Kyle Tuttle!
That was a SLICK rendition. You played it with such GRACE!
I saw what YOU did there...and i LIKED it
Damnit… I didn’t get it
Acid casualties of new grass.
@@WeldonLooney The song's writer/ original singer's name was Grace Slick. The rumor was that the rest of her band locked her in a room with some drugs and refused to let her out until she had written a song. This is what she gave them.
I don't get it
This thing is going to hit a million views in no time, it's a bluegrass meet's 60s acid rock masterpiece that has sent me down the Molly Tuttle rabbit hole.
The Tuttle family is worth checking out. Her brother is awesome also.
1.8
yes
a hundred of those views are mine.
YES!!!!🎉
I thought I was having a flashback until i saw the Normies appear in the background. What a great way to start the day. Yesterday I discovered Sierra Hull and today Molly Tuttle. Thank you Nanci Griffith for first opening my ears to Bluegrass.
Same here. Discovered sierra hull and molly tuttle last week!
Also listen to Sierra Ferrel
That was insane. The best cover of 'White Rabbit' I've ever heard. Thank you.
Facts 👌🏼
Agreed!👌
I disagree, Grace Slick's voice had something special that very few can match, Pink came close. The instrumental was very good, would liked to have heard more of the acoustic base.
@@johndavidwolf4239 he said it’s the best cover, not the best version. Important distinction.
More of that gig, please.
What a great journey you guys are on! Grace Slick and the rest are really smiling today. BRAVO EVERYONE!
They legit look like they are enjoying themselves. Love the energy
What a great rendition of a great song - GREAT job by all - thx!
This must be what it’s like inside Les Claypool’s head all the time and he just turns it into a bassline.
Lol. Best comment I have randomly read in awhile
You nailed it😂😂😂😂
Lolz, 😜
Wow, fiddler is incredible!!
Until this I've never heard a rendition of this song that I liked. No one could match the desperation that Grace Slick imparted into the vocals, which is both so fitting and necessary for this song. What an amazing job to accomplish that desperation in the instrumentals.
There is so so much good here
Thanks Molly and friends... best rendition since I saw Grace perform in 1965.
I'm 68 and this is the most entertaining version I've ever seen!!!
I never thought someone could outdo her majesty Grace Slick and the JA!!!!!!
Oh my goodness I turn 68 next week and I thought the exact same thing! I’ve always love Gracie slick ever since the first time I heard her when I was around 12 or 13. ❤💕Love, peace ☮️and psychedelic rock!🎶
This is not something I expected to see or hear today, but it's awesome! Great work!
It's over the top! Crazy stuff. 🎸✨🎶
Fabulous and so uniquely done by some very talented musicians
Me neither...
Touche
Mighty fine indeed Molly. Bravo!
Everything I hear from Ms Tuttle and her various collaborators, I get more impressed with. There is a fine crop of young musicians leading us into the future!
Unbelievable! Just Wow!
This has become my new favorite thing.
Mesmerizing
One of the best covers EVER played.
Awesome cover. That fiddle solo was an absolute masterclass in improvisation. That’s what’s it’s all about for real musicians, to be able to express yourself like that musically.
The whole band is sporting ear to ear grins during the fiddle solo.
She's mind blowingly talented!
@@craigpage2638 And she does it with a totally expressionless look on her face too :)
Knocked it out of the park, Brilliant rendition
When the song seemingly ends, and that slow burn solo starts up. Take us out homeboy😊
This is GREAT ! with deep respect and appreciation .
Love the outfits! That was awesome
Excellent presentation thank you 🐓
I think the Airplane would approve!!! Great to see the kids today are appreciating and reinterpreting the rock classics; great musicianship!!!
Nice scarf, too! 😊❤
Last time I saw something like this was on a camping trip. I had eaten some wild mushrooms.
Freaking love this. Awesome,fantastic playing.
Love Molly.
Guitar sounded great. 👏👏👍🎶🎸
❤ Well now that fed my head!
I have an urge to dress up as a caterpillar and smoke weed but I'm an accountant from Surrey. It just doesn't seem right.
Fucking do it bro. ❤ with love -Ember
Just do it. Counter culture needs you not in a business suit.
That’s the best reason in the world to smoke weed 🧙🏼♂️
Please do it fam
"there is no right and there is no wrong,
but right is right and wrong is wrong" (an old anonymous zen master)
Epic recreation of this classic tune. Bravo!!
I don't often comment on what I see on TH-cam but this has blown me away. Brilliant performance all round. An absolute joy to watch. My only complaint is why it didn't show up to me a month ago, based on what I watch. Love it and now going to search out more from this ensemble. Ah another rabbit hole hahaha
So much fun being had there!😊
The appearance of this video takes on a really intense meaning for my adult child and I. There has been a crazy rash of OD deaths of those from her rehab community. I'm so grateful for her sobriety.
Unbelievable that was just awesome! Why cant I just be hiking through a forest and stumble upon Molly Tuttle and band jamming in full costume?
this is FANTASTIC! this song is MADE for bluegrass instruments and Molly singing with great musicians & having fun and the theatricality of it too.
I keep coming back to this over and over. Mesmerising.
Okay, this is officially just about the coolest thing I've EVER SEEN!!!! AMAZing musicianship, sound and COSTUMES!!! The caterpillar! The Cheshire cat! Omg!!!!
FANTASTIC PERFORMANCE! FANTASTIC VIDEOGRAPHY AND AUDIO --- Thank you all so much. So much fun.
I can't stop listening, it is by far one of the best cover tracks I have heard ❤
Love Molly Tuttle and this band. Wonderful rendition of this classic.
Loved it…..brought back a lot of memories !!
You just made my day! You all are so good, so fun, and so creative. You're all virtuosic, but the banjo player took it to another level. Thank you so much!
Ah, but the fiddle player before that! Those two solos make all this dressing up worthwhile.....
@@seancurran6727 I have to agree. She’s a monster.
Yes! The fiddle break took it up a notch! Love this!
Absolutely fantastic , musically perfect . And man that girl can sing .
Brilliant musicians, Beautiful performance!!!
Encore! Encore, we want a 2-hour movie! What a gift to the world. Thank you!❤🎉
This is giving me chills and goosebumps. And, surprisingly, I'm still, sober!
Great version of this song!💖Think Grace Slick would approve Taking on a lengary singer like Grace takes guts...👍👍❤️Hope to see more videos from you all!!! 🇺🇸
Absolutely awesome!!!!
Bravo!!! Way to bring your originality to a classic. I want to listen on repeat! Thank you, more please 👏👏👏
As someone, ME, who heard Jefferson Airplaine perform this LIVE.... I LOVED your rendition!!!❤❤ The costumes were so apropos.
Yes I too saw them live in Denver
Apropos ? What does that mean out of curiosity?
Have you heard the original - by The Great Society? 😇
@@AspiringSpaceWizard you can substitute appropriate, and it still makes sense but appropriate has connotations of being socially acceptable whereas apropos means more like 'suitable for the occasion'.
I saw them at the Great woods amphitheater in Massachusetts.
Simply wonderful! Thank you.
Absolutely phenomenal.
Awesome! I didn't notice the white rabbit until it stood up during the violin solo. Weirded me out, frankly, but he just added to the entire fantastical flavor of this great cover!
There's another video of them on performing this on a stage (I believe at the same festival) & the rabbit is on stage causing mayhem lol. Just search their name & the song name & it should be in the results.
I was appreciating the marvelously attired Mad Hatter when I saw the furry creature resting on a bench and assumed it was the drowsy dormouse. My bad.😉
That was so sweet! Really shows Molly's voice.
Trop bien !!! et bravo pour les costumes et l'ambiance ...
my new favorite white rabbit song great job and psychedelic costumes
Damn this is amazing! 🥰🥰🥰 I love everything about it! It is an incredible song, and this is absolutely the best cover I ever heard. The musicians are all so good. Mollys voice! 😍 And the costumes... Just perfect ladies and gentlemen! Wow 🙏🏼😁😘
great song choice by a superlative band of musicians. Bringing Blue Grass to rock just works.
Wow! I love this!! Thanks for sharing. So f ing cool.....more! More! Please! 😉👍❤
This was way better than I thought it would be
Outstanding!
Simply AMAZING! And the crazed smiles on the bass player make me feel happy.
I think she is actually role playing the character of the Mad Hatter. Whatever she's doing, she's really compelling to watch
I have been watching their videos a while now, and she is always stunning. I imagine no few guys and women have a deep crush on her. (Me? I am safely and happily past those days.)🥳😉
@spacelemur7955 Im in the same boat age wise, yet I keep crushing on her. My rule of thumb is dont crush on anyone younger than my daughter. She appears to be about 5 years older. So I'm safe ;-D
Top notch! Oh dear! Oh dear! I shall be too late!
I can't believe how many times I've played this, I'm obsessed, musically and artistically all you could wish for, amazing stuff ❤
Totally know what you mean, Mark. I lost count how many times I’ve played this video. It’s like I can’t get enough. Would love to hear Molly and crew do many more of these 60s based hippy tunes!
wow what a tribute and what a performance.
I would have so much have loved being anywhere near you guys to hear this. That song more or less identifies my earliest times of youth.... and maybe the reason I avoided the pitfalls then. But man I loved this. I didn't think anyone could do it justice, not like the original. And you didn't. You made it fresh. It was beautiful.
White rabbit was late joining in as expected. Great fun rendition of this classic. Thanks.
I bet you all had fun with the costumes. Thank you for sharing.
100% fitting visuals and music choice.
Covers it perfectly
You all give a knockout performance of a rock classic giving it a cool bluegrass vibe. Well done 👏😏
That was fantastic!! Took me way back when I was 19/20 yrs old. Thank you! Love ur bass player....💕
So much fun, thanks!
