    Billy is a force of nature! He takes traditional bluegrass he learned growing up, playing with his daddy Terry Barber, and gives it some sweet modern licks! The accompanists in this video are OK, but to me the better version of the song is when Billy and his band sang it at the Opry (video on YT). Couple other great Billy songs are 'Turmoil and Tinfoil' and 'Meet Me at the Creek' (best videos for these, for arrangement and performance, on the Music City Roots channel).

    Billy says this was based on a true story: Two of his friends in Michigan, the one with a car had given the other a ride, and the passenger (unknown to the driver) had an empty baggie fall out of his pocket. Some way or how, the police later had the driver in a stop, found the baggie, and the residue of dust it had tested positive for the first substance mentioned in the lyrics. The sentence wasn't 20, but pretty excessive given the amount.

    Always reminds me of my family when I hear bluegrass. Sat through alot of playing sessions. Never for anything more than it was just a part of your life and just what you did. Family has always been just able to play any instrument. I didn't think it was anything special till I moved away and saw that it wasn't normal in most families. I just did what my family did. Just picked up the guitar and found it pretty easy or natural. Then it was Bass next was the mandolin and then banjo then harmonica. Mandolin is always fun to me though. Banjo for some reason I found to be the more difficult to learn but my grandpa excelled at it. None of us ever learned to read music or had lessons. There are alot of people like Billy Strings out there. You won't ever hear them though cause they never took it as something that could be capitalized on. They just like to play.

    The girl playing the mando started hanging around with Alison Krauss and Union Station when she was only 13. The guitarist, Brian Sutton - is perhaps the best guitarist alive today. The fiddler (Michael Cleveland) is blind and deaf in of one ear from birth.
    These players are a subset of many players called 'Bela Flec and My Bluegrass Heart'. They will absolutely blow you away... especially Sierra the mandolinist and her husband Justin Moses. Awwww heck THEY'RE ALL MASTERS and they are all multi-instrumentalists by the way.

    This is definitely bluegrass. The instrumentals are absolutely bluegrass (although I don't see or hear a banjo), with a contemporary story. Bluegrass musicians are some of the finest stringed instrument players in the world.
    And yes, bluegrass is just a rural white man's version of the blues. If you go back 50-75 years ago, bluegrass and blues players probably interacted with, and borrowed techniques from each other.

      Yes, it's White Man's Blues....and Gospel for that matter. NOT White dudes singing Black Man's Blues...aka Eric Clapton, Paul Butterfield, Led Zeppelin etc......

    Billy can flat out shred. He is doing for Bluegrass/ Country what Stevie Ray Vaughan did for blues in the 1980’s.

    The music industry in general is filled with a lot of people that are hooked on rugs. Bluegrass back in the day, sang about moonshine (mountain dew), and just about anything else. Even Kenny Rogers has a song that starts out, when I get high I can't leave the girls alone.
    Way back in the day, musicians had two sets of the same songs, with different lyrics. Clean lyrics for the early crowd and dirty lyrics for the after crowd, midnight to 4 am. I know of only one song from that era, that ever made it to recording, Try both these songs, in one video to show the contrast, of what music used to be like.
    Jackie Wilson and LaVern Baker - Think Twice
    &
    Jackie Wilson and LaVern Baker - Think Twice Version X
    In the version x, the sing about cocaine, and eating ice cream. Not ice cream, something else. This is more soul music than anything and is nowhere near country.

    This is a great place to start. You'll see some phenomenal collaborations and maybe run into a little Grateful Dead.

    I discovered Billy Strings about a year ago & I can't get enough. Someone called it psychedelic outlaw bluegrass, a label I agree with.

    How is love a new people react to Billy Strings how she was jumping around is how everybody is at his concerts. Billy wrote this song because many of his friends either died from drugs or went to prison, and it scared him straight.
