One hot summer night about 6 years ago or so, I was leaving the Wildhorse Saloon in downtown Nashville, lit a cigarette, and was frozen mid step by the most haunting and mesmerizing voice I had ever experienced. She was in a doorway leading to a closed shoppette, a man was playing along with her and another was either keeping time or sitting out, but I can't tell you any other details about THEM. All I know is that we locked eyes and I could have looked into that moment for eternity. We were immediately connected. We exchanged information, I grabbed a demo/mixtape, and we've stayed in touch. I've always told her that she is destined for greatness and that a voice such as hers will forever demand an audience. Seems I was right. Sierra, if you see this, I'm proud of you, and it seems that I'm not the only man (or woman) that has a chronic infatuation with you following the exact moment our eyes met lol. Can't wait to see you. -Caveman
I just discovered her last night and proceeded to watch every video i could find. Mesmerizing!! The most amazing new artist I've discovered in at least 20 years.
As good as the company of musicians are that play with her, anything other than her own guitar simply takes away from her ruby red voice. It's so original, filled with honesty and true intent. Some things just can't be faked and Sierra Ferrell is absolutely the real thing. I'd like to hear this solo set today in 2023.
Notice how every single person there is silently taking in the sheer originality from every note she both plays and sings. I've heard of some trying to put her in a "jazz/swing" box but they're not listening close enough. If you really pay attention, you'll hear just how talented she truly is. One of a kind.
she treats her voice like an instrument and u can hear that, truly materful. it would be good like that on its own, but on top of that, she adds so much emotional depth.. hits you in the feelz
my God, she really is mesmerising...what a lucky bunch of folk getting to watch her in such a small personal setting. She will be doing much larger gigs in the years to come.
Take note people... Sierra Ferrell is absolutely fantastic in every way. Her voice, guitar performance, songwriting, and looks create a perfect musical experience. THREE CHEERS, SIERRA FERRELL!!!
She is so freaking good. And that guitar sounds amazing! She is a perfect answer to all those people who constantly say that there is no good music these days. Only the music from when they were young . . Awesome talent!!
@skankhunt42 I don't think there is any more or less good music than before. I reckon we have more access to the good stuff but agree that its rarely mainstream anymore.
I'm with you! I'm old, but I KNOW that the music of my heydey is not the only good music. There's a shit-ton of excellent musicians out there now. You just have to stop the whining and start the looking.
It seems these days popular and talented are diametrically opposed. She deserves success more than any country artist I've heard on the radio in the last 30 years.
I don’t think I’ve heard such a sultry mystic magic: “why’d ya’ do it? why’d you do it, why did you fall in love? it’s a hard fall from way up there, come down dear that’s enough.” Pure fire. 🔥
Be careful what you ask for, as Eminem said.. Now he's the biggest corporate sellout I can think of, for someone who used to speak out so much about anti-establishment.
What a talented women! I discovered her a few years ago and can’t get enough of her. Thank you Sierra, your music makes me feel great at any time. Much love from Glasgow, Scotland.
I remember as a little kid and growing up my dad made sure I heard real music I'm in the truck with my two year old little girl listing to this recording I know I'm doing my part in making sure she knows what real music Sierra Ferrell your amazing and thank god real music is sti getting made and played
My sis (61) and I (67) came together after many years apart, and she loves the same exact music I do; we even know the words to most! I sent her a Sierra video and she loves her as much as I do! We both also are bikers, dress a lot alike. Crazy, but she's a best friend!
Saw her open for Charley Crockett in Huntsville, AL. Had never heard of her before that night, but she absolutely blew me away. I listen to her all the time now. Insanely good voice.
As Sierra has grown and evolved and become such an AMAZING artist I can only imagine being in that small gathering-up close- with her raw solo talent!! Hopefully those in attendance appreciated that day and remember it forever!
Had the pleasure of meeting her in May, the most genuine true to herself ma’am I’ve ever come across. Artist like no other, thank you for sharing your gifts and blessing our ears!
Leadbelly has been reincarnated! Sierra Ferrell's voice has a magnificent "Presence" that(sadly) few possess. I HEARD it in the first note. A seemingly "effortless", shameless, commanding expression!! Listen to her guitar sing along! AND THAT(once every epoch) HUDDIE LEDBETTER VIBRATO! SOMEBODY GIVE THIS LOVELY LADY A TWELVE STRING! You've got our attention(We ARE listening) Thank you Sierra Ferrell(and woubppbs), Ted Furlo
ted furlo Now that's an unexpected comparison. Voice-wise you canna compare them. Sierra's voice is melodious, and even sweet at times. You could never say that about Leadbelly's voice although it was an authoritative voice. Is it the guitar sound, particularly the lo , rich acoustic sound at the beginning that that puts you in mind of Leadbelly?
Gorgeous on so many levels - love the song, love the voice, love the resolve chords, love the image, love the performance. Gotta check this lady out for more material - beautiful.
As someone still in WV, I can admit it's making my eyes leak as well. I think anyone in WV has that "i'm leaving here today" thought at least once a day.
She is unlike anyone I've ever heard. What a beauty what a talent 💖 this is music how I remember as a lil girl.
Favourite artist in the world, she's unique.
This country-singing mermaid stole my heart and there's nothing I can do.
Ha! Good one!
Anyone with a heart feels the same
@@francoisgaridacci4128 Resistance to Sierra Ferrell's spirit is both futile and wrong-headed!
💖She is so Awesome 💓🥲
Such an entranced and respectful crowd.
Sierra Ferrel is a fkg gem! She is worth the festival price alone.
✨ Sierra - DIAMOND ✨The Lord keeps her 🙏

What a great story to have .Your a very lucky Caveman. ✌
Amazing. Take note Nashville this is the country true country fans want.. This is the REAL DEAL folks.
An un-inhibited natural woman with an un-inhibited natural talent.
Amazing. Awesome!
Please YT, stop! I cannot listen to her whole night, gotta go to sleep some time... guess I will just watch one more last one 😅
You can't watch this girl and not know you're witnessing something extra special. What a unique soul.
Yeah, she's ridiculous.
Agreed. She's absolutely Fantastic!
The Gypsy King
Thank you!!
I just discovered her last night and proceeded to watch every video i could find. Mesmerizing!! The most amazing new artist I've discovered in at least 20 years.
Yeah love the face tattoo lol
Wow, whoever is in the sound booth is really earning their keep, and thanks for not compressing the ever-living heck out of this in post.
Did I fall in love or what
I FELL IN LOVE
...... HEY GIRL I LOVE YOUR MUSIC...
An old soul making old soul music. Wow.
She's earned that crown!
But ALL women have earned the right to control their bodies!!
Sierra has got the power to stop the time and even to go back in it! 👋

She can do everything
How could you not give this a standing ovation...
I am amazed at how she inflects & mutes her phrasing to create vocal textures.
She is truly amazing.

She headlined this same festival this year ❤

She is literally it
Sierra is very special.
I'm glad your parents had you, so country fans could enjoy your talent.
She is so freaking good. And that guitar sounds amazing! She is a perfect answer to all those people who constantly say that there is no good music these days. Only the music from when they were young . . Awesome talent!!
@skankhunt42 I don't think there is any more or less good music than before. I reckon we have more access to the good stuff but agree that its rarely mainstream anymore.
her, benjamin tod, tyler childers, colter wall, todd day wait, billy strings, etc.
@skankhunt42 most old shit that i genuinely enjoy isnt mainstream. like gram parsons for instance. not mainstream at all but an absolute legend.

She's just outstanding. Her music shines and brings beauty into this world.
it's impossible not to love this woman🙂
Why does this woman's voice make this grown man wanna tear up like a little baby???
Bless ypu ! you have recovered my sanity !
I don’t think I’ve heard such a sultry mystic magic: “why’d ya’ do it? why’d you do it, why did you fall in love? it’s a hard fall from way up there, come down dear that’s enough.” Pure fire. 🔥
Give it time. What an amazing iconic song. Just amazing. All time great music that will last all of Time. 😊
Her voice, velvety & transcendent comes from some sacred place. Honest. Confident. Humble. Just wow.
Absolutely sensational! For me! Best folk/country entertainer to come along in 30+ years!!! 😅🎉😂❤😊
You can't watch this standing up...it knocks you off your feet.
She wasn't made for these times, but we're glad she's here ;)
Thank God.
blake1771 Agreed! Like we went thru a time warp to the ‘40s!...🎶
Shes making her own times.
She reminds me of a very early Marianne Faithful mixed with Dusty Springfield if they played guitar. Love her.
these times have to change
Une voix envoûtante 😃
She has her own You Tube channel....we should all subscribe. She's a breath of fresh air and originality and should be more popular.
Be careful what you ask for, as Eminem said.. Now he's the biggest corporate sellout I can think of, for someone who used to speak out so much about anti-establishment.
@@AtlasRapture Old people get desperate, as I use to say.
31 folks need their thumbs broke. How can you dislike this beautiful voice, and tune? Can't wait to see her live next month!
People are weird/dumb. Nothing to be done about it except prayer.
What a talented women! I discovered her a few years ago and can’t get enough of her. Thank you Sierra, your music makes me feel great at any time. Much love from Glasgow, Scotland.
Hi Scotland! You have great taste. Be great for her to play Glastonbury!
I should have known her speaking voice would be an absolute treat for the ears as well. Could listen to her talk and sing all day.
This group of songs got me through the most difficult part of my life. Thanks very much for making it
I remember as a little kid and growing up my dad made sure I heard real music I'm in the truck with my two year old little girl listing to this recording I know I'm doing my part in making sure she knows what real music Sierra Ferrell your amazing and thank god real music is sti getting made and played
My little girl is 2 and loves listening to her and Tyler Childers and AC DC...there’s a few others but those are her top 3 this summer
My sis (61) and I (67) came together after many years apart, and she loves the same exact music I do; we even know the words to most!
I sent her a Sierra video and she loves her as much as I do! We both also are bikers, dress a lot alike. Crazy, but she's a best friend!
This is the best performance I have ever heard.
She is the perfect little weirdo. So freaking talented.
Someone come please get Earl, he's outta pocket
Why can’t all new music sound this good, she’s got true talent and pure sound that’s hard to find
Super star.
I cannot stop listening to this young lady. A true gift from God.
I can’t believe how intimate this is - I will make it my mission to see her live. What a treasure - pure talent! ❤🌟
My goodness. She can pluck. Dang. Just dang. I'm in.
what a great fresh sounding talent
From another dimension she play for us!
Es la mejor ! 💓
well I'm back. watching again for the 90th time.
Im on my 30th at least!!!
Try her cover "years" Audiotree Staged. Best song and performance of a song ever in existence and ever will be.
Dude she is unbelievably good and unique. Rosemary is honestly one of the most memorable songs I have ever heard
Beautiful music and song... Thank you!
3:00 ~ I'm made like that
7:18 ~ Why'd you do it
11:03 ~ Give it time
14:14 ~ Rosemary
Best til last!
This gal is absolutely brilliant. Sierra Ferrell will be a household name.
Your right she signed a record deal with rounder records and joins the likes of Allison kraus
Saw her open for Charley Crockett in Huntsville, AL. Had never heard of her before that night, but she absolutely blew me away. I listen to her all the time now. Insanely good voice.
As Sierra has grown and evolved and become such an AMAZING artist I can only imagine being in that small gathering-up close- with her raw solo talent!! Hopefully those in attendance appreciated that day and remember it forever!
I adore this little lady, never has music made me smile and cry so much. She's pure magic.
her talent is so effortless... like watching a lil angel
Such an old soul in' a beautiful young lady.
This may be the most beautiful thing I've ever heard. Ty
She’s legit
As always every time I hear her I can't believe she's not a star
The first song of the 3 she sings should be a classic... fantastic voice
Sierra you are a heavenly singer,you sing like an angel.
Extraordinary talent. A rare voice and exquisite songwriting.
Your voice is the most genuine, honest voice I've heard in a long long time. Nectar.
I’m falling down the rabbit hole and god I love it!
Gopher squirrels.
Your voice will last the trials of time, music is immortality. You will be here forever. That's truly special.
Sierra, thank you for staying true to the music you love. It's appreciated more than you'll ever know!
Un deleite escuchar y ver a Sierra Ferrell......Mil gracias.

Got chills from the vocal run at 17:17 😧
That first song is addicting.been listening to it multiple times a day
PLEASE Sierra, dont get all torked out on frikkin dope and DO NOT sell out. You ARE a national treasure.....
she has really matured as a performer. flawless set.
I met her in Seattle years ago. You could see talent radiating from her even then.
Her pitch and tone dang. I've heard a lot of quietly earth shaking voices on the busking rows and hers is definitely another one of note
How could you not love this woman?
What a lucky bunch of people to see her in this great setting . SO SPECIAL . ✌
i freakin love her her voice is so pure
I've watched this 25 times since last week.
hi a new fan , Dorothy Shay From the 1950's had a sound like you ! LOVE it THANKS for making my day & nights !
Spot on, Dorothy Shay is not a name you hear too often, My Gran was a big fan.
She's from another era! So glad for this discovery! Refreshing
She has such a mystical soul you can feel through her songs and voice . It will send shivers down your spine .
you hit the nail on the head mystical soul . ✌
Bless you Sierra
This girl has such an amazing voice! So excited to hear she is working on an album!
She's amazing so happy for a West Virginia girl.
Her music should be required listening in our schools...
Her music is great, but I don't want the government requiring me to do anything.
Gorgeous on so many levels - love the song, love the voice, love the resolve chords, love the image, love the performance. Gotta check this lady out for more material - beautiful.
I absolutly love this girl
She is so soulful. What an inspirational find. xo
"Give it time" rips my heart in half but by god, I've listened to this video about 50 times...
Rick Jones it rips my heart too 💔💔
@@alyssagonzalez235 Why?
Sierra is so unique and so talented. Truly hoping she gets the world wide recognition she deserves.
That first song made my eyes leak. Wonderful.
As someone still in WV, I can admit it's making my eyes leak as well. I think anyone in WV has that "i'm leaving here today" thought at least once a day.
Mesmerizing. She's got the spark that's for damn sure.
Wonderful as always. Everything stops when you hear Sierra sing.
