What a breath of fresh air she is. Singing about a life she's lived not imitating someone else's experiences. She was busking on street corners just a few years ago. Patsy Cline would be jealous of her vocal control.
There’s really talented people busking on the streets. A lot of my favorite music from this century is just TH-cams of musicians and bands on the streets of New Orleans, Asheville etc. Tuba Skinny, Yes Ma’am, Meshia Lake. Hannah on banjo, the spoon lady, Peter Gunn, the cute washboard gal and many more. These people keep the old American music alive and make great new music in that tradition.
I met a Hobo once in Newark (Hobo is willing to work). He was looking for a laundromat, and on his way to Pittsburgh. Super cool guy. We chatted for a good 30 minutes. Lived a very interesting life traveling from place to place, working here and there.
Ok I knew alot of train riders that rode from Atlanta. To New Orleans, one I remember was road rat. , these people told me the ins and outs while I was homeless , and I opted out cause it was crazy dangerous and scary as shit , I give you credit girl that's a honest and tough life
My grandpa Fisher hobo'ed following the harvests. My mother worked the orange groves in south Florida while pregnant with me. She's the first person I've seen in a minute that I even remotely related to.
I cant be the only one picking up on how uncomfortable the interviewer-- is making her? from the 1st doting on her , then trying to ask super personal impactful questions that just come off cringe... I felt like a few times he was insulting her. She showed great professionalism. I kinda wished she walked out on him
She never rode trains like that that's why she is not just because you ride a few trains does not make you a train hopper no train hopper would give out some of the information she shares in this video
@@patrickwilliamson1596that's just not true, she is not sharing any information that can't be easily googled or that the train security doesn't already know. Benjamin Todd is well known and widely accepted because he is super emo and a drug addict. Sierra never was in an emo band. Tons of travelling kids like terrible emo and pop punk music but Sierra is a real country girl.
I think the makeup is a bit too much tbh ... I'm all for alternative fashion but really think it doesn't suit her when compared to the past more natural looks
Wow, she changed her style and makeup ... I was a fan of her old fashion sense of vintage 1970s western style Edit: i just realised the cat is a cushion, not a design of the dress, its just the makeup that's different and honestly I still think it's too much and doesn't suit her. Too much foundation/ concealer, eyeliner and lipstick... Don't know how to say without being rude Sorry.
We are in The Era of Sierra!
I met Sierra when she was hanging out with some of her train Hopper peeps while she was doing harvest work in Laytonville CA.
She reminds me of people i have met, especially in NOLA
Yes. Lots of travelling kids in that area doing seasonal grow labor. Very interesting folks. She's pretty unforgettable once you see her singing

We don't need to dim someone else's sunshine to compliment someone else.

She is a gem. Love her music.
Train hoppin uniform: Carhartts, septum piercing, dog with rope for leash. That checks out.
Excellent conversation

Sierra is a goddess but the level of questions here is square one
She's fantastic!

I was a high paid Hobo for 32 years.

He’s so privileged he can’t imagine being poor
yeah he reallyyyy didn't get it
I love her.
🎉🎉❤ Sentimental.
She should be more famous in the train riding scene than Benjamin Tod

jack kerouac and neal cassady embodied
I have some jack Kerouac lined up on my reading list, but jack londons the road will always be the best train hopping book
Interesting how Sierra left out the part about our friend dying while doing this.
Yes I didnt know your friend but wondering if you ever heard about road rat.
I know some people who got injured , I don’t know if I know anyone who died directly caused by the trains though
Lots of people died doing this. Mostly from drugs
did you not watch the full interview lol

So she's a real hobo or was a real hobo.
She’s a poser who did some research
Hope this is a temporary look.
She tends to change his looks quite much, but yea this really reminded me of some junkie, and not one of the brightest woman stars there are!
Shallow
this has to be an old clip/interview...

Your ignorance is showing
