Swallowtail Jig (Instrumental) - The Petersens (LIVE)

- We have had the amazing opportunity to tour Ireland four times and, for a bluegrass band, it just doesn't get much more fun than pulling out your instruments and joining the locals for a jam session in a pub. After our third tour, we decided to add an Irish song in our show and Katie suggested the "Swallowtail Jig." Emmett wrote the interlude part you hear and it just put the icing on the cake.
Special shout out to our friends in Ireland who have taken care of us, cheered us on, and paid Katie's many parking tickets haha (we are looking at you Neil & Joan O'Rahilly, Pat & Kathleen Kelleher, the Lyons family, John Nyhan, and Ger O'Donnell).

Fun fact: When Ellen was 14, she found the gold-plated "Pink Lady" Hopkins banjo at the SPBGMA (Society for the Preservation of Bluegrass Music of America) championships in Nashville and it was love at first sight haha.

With that jig you'd be right at home in any pub in Ireland or Newfoundland.👍
This is the best rendition of the Swallowtail Jig I’ve ever heard. Thank you!
I think Katies reaction to being told they have to do a reshoot is both Priceless and Adorable!!
I just realized something, This is the only band That I know the names of every one of the members, That's got to mean something.
Katie plays most instruments of the band, piano, sings like an angel and a now she dances. Jaw dropped!
That UPS driver **really** blew it!
Oh not quite true, Julianne did some fancy foot work in a earlier video... like 8 or 9 years ago. :)
She writes also
Katie is my favorite musician/ singer of all time
Absolutely love Katie! Who ever wins her heart will be a very lucky blessed man!
2:21 Katie's smile. This is why I love this band.❤️ So much love for one another.
So true !! Sometimes I just play their videos for the music... 4 minutes later I'm still glued to the screen 😂
Whoever came up with this arrangement is brilliant. Of course, these great musicians could play the menu from a Chinese restaurant and make it beautiful!
It must be a beautiful thing for Mom to be in the background watching her children shine💖🤗🌼
Katie always has a smile for everyone! She just looks happy.
I'll amen that. Such beautiful people.
What I don't get is how her mom keeps from smiling 100% of the time. She has to be super proud.
I watch this video almost every day I love it that much.
Love It, Just Love It. Katie dancing in the end is like icing on the cake
You know Julianne was in on the joke in the end.
@@jonstefanik9400 Hi Jon,... I’ll bet Julianne is in on EVERY joke and trick! I think there’s a HUGE practical jokester side of Julianne!
@@hughroadie2291 The little sister is always the most mischievous.
I love this arrangement ! Emmetts' bridge really is a brilliant addition . Can't stop joining in on my Octave Mandolin !!!
Jamming with these guys would be a dream wouldn't it!
THE BEST musical group in America today.
I agree, how do we join?
What about Ashley Tisdale and Zach Effron?
@@Seffsqautch Never heard of them, wil listen now
probably the cleanest
In a crazy world this brings true joy to my heart. I thank God for the Petersons and thank them for the effort of making this awesome rendition possible for the rest of us to be able to enjoy. If any of the Peterson's are reading this, just thank you thank you thank you thank you
I hope you guys know how much joy you bring into this world!
Happy St. Patrick’s Day!☘️🍀☘️ to the O’Petersens and O’Emmett. Enjoy and have fun.
This is one of my favorite songs you play.
I love your Irish step dancing Katie. Good job.
Stay well and be safe. God Bless🙏
Bill😎☘️
As a lover of Irish and Bluegrass music, this is really hitting the spot!
Absolutely!!!☘️🇮🇪
Loved all the playing, especially the mandolin I thought was exceptional, and the dancing at the end, I laugh with heart every time I watch it. Rob
Nice !👍
And Katie's last "Are you serious ?" is hilarious !!😁👍
Thank you Aaron !!
The Peterson’s are such a bright light in today’s world! Keep being a blessing to so many.
One of my favorite irish fiddle tunes. Beautiful transition into a bluegrass style tune.
I never cease to be amazed at the talent I see on the Petersens. God Bless.
All instruments sound great, but when the banjo picking started, it was heavenly! Another amazing collaboration. Thank you Petersens!
Wow wow and wow. Here is the song I have been longing for. Where Julianne really shins on mandolin. A song where all got an opportunity to bloom for a while. When mandolin and violin are tuned similarly I guess learning violin are less difficult for her and I like her taking the opportunity making that effort. The bonus video in the end was priceless. Here we really can see and hear how each one gives the other their space. By seeing and listen to this just makes me . . . happy. ❤️❤️👍👍🐐⛄🐣😀👍👍❤️❤️
You wanna know when a TH-cam channel is great? When you can like the video before watching it with all confidence that it will be amazing. Beautiful song guys, well done!
I agree Juan. They are very talented, clever people. I love the old videos of the girls and Matt-barely teens, just fearless and owning that stage. Amazing folks
Sadly 10 people did not like it.. they must be crazy .
They never disappoint!
Sometimes songs without words have the most to say
More celtic sound !!! It was a great and amazing moment. Thank you all. Love from France.♥♥♥
Katie is so very talented. And her reaction at the very end of this gets funnier every time I watch it. Thank you Petersens. We love your music, humor and smiles.
Beautiful! Just beautiful! Beautiful people, beautiful music!
The last 6 months have been the best musical time of my life! I got all your albums and somehow I'm still discovering some gems... For the last week it has been this song non stop 😊 you are so NOURISHING!! THANK YOU❤
Katie has to be one of the cutest things in the Ozarks ! You can always count on her priceless smile.
In a world gone mad this is such a breath of fresh air. I'm finding myself drawn more and more to wholesome things. Thank you for your beautiful content❤🌿
Petersens doing their thing. Always a treat. And the end of the video was hilarious, especially Katie's expression after she finishes and her reaction when she thinks she has to do that jig again. LOL!!
This is my favourite! More Celtic tunes every now and then would be most welcome. I loved the various highlights of each musician in this piece. :)
Boy, you can really see in your faces how much you enjoy playing. I think that's one of the biggest things that attracts me and I'm sure others to watch you guys perform. The smiles, the small quick looks you give each other, Love it!
What an amazing rendition of a beautiful tune,you are all amazing.I am Scottish and I cannot stop playing my Bodhran to this tune.👍🏴🇺🇸
bd
Awesome guys. Ending was priceless. Katie they need you on dancing with the stars. 💃👏👏👏
She really ought to go for it
WOW! How cool is this?!?! Love that Fiddle! Angeline the Baker was a bonus at the end!
Something about this rendition is just so magical and pure.
Emmett: That interlude feels like the sun breaking through the clouds and suddenly one feels reborn and rejuvenated anew! Simply wonderful guys!
I"m South African with Irish roots. This makes my Irish blood boil with excitement. WOW you guys really are so talented. I have been listening to your songs on TH-cam for a number of years now. Thanks so much for sharing as we in distant countries that love Bluegrass would never hear these beautiful songs and music by such gifted musicians. God bless you.
Best outro of all time! Buck dancing was amazing! 👏👏 More please
We can see your joy, playing together. Thanks !
Yeah! 10 out of 10! Irish folk is wonderful, and Emmet's Dobro fits perfectly with it.
And: indeed the funniest outtro! :-D
love this song😇 thanks to the Petersens for their music😇😇
WOAH! Of all the things in life that I was not expecting, that ending is at the top of the list. I was waiting for Katie to look right at the camera and say " Are you happy now? " 🤣🤣🤣
Ha Ha . Yes! This really caught me off guard as well. Leave it to these guys to blow away our expectations.
Takes away all the stress away and put a smile on your face. Thank you guys!!
You'd look and sound right at home, sitting in the corner of a wee pub down on the Dingle Peninsula. Great work on this trad tune!!
I love everything I've heard from the Petersens, but this piece gets a special place in my Ireland-loving heart. Absolutely beautiful!
It's wonderful! Bravooo to them! 🎶🎻🎻🎻🪕🪕🪕😘💟☃️☃️A wonderful sound, makes us dreaming and flying with our minds...
Beautifully done music piece.. Love it! Had no idea Juliane played the fiddle. "One more time, Katie". cut her loose. Thank you all for brightening my day!
Still get chill bumps everytime I hear this. Thanks guys
Another gem that reaches one million views!! Many, many wishes and congratulations to the most Irish band in Missouri! 🎶🎻
Indeed, the only thing that's still missing is a little Irish step dance routine by the whole band.😉(right Katie?)
Can’t stop listening to this!!!!
Glad that we can finally hear Julianne's mandolin. She's good.
She’s fricken amazing, but then again they all are!!!!
Straight up shredding on this track
Good on the fiddle too!
That's the style Mama has taught all of them. Understated is much more tasteful than overplayed; one of the hardest musical lessons in this biz. When you get a solo then shine but otherwise support and be cohesive. They really know how to operate as a unit and it's always very tastefully done as is evidenced in their arrangements. Pros every one!
yes she is
This (The Petersons) is something really amazing and beautiful!!!
So nice. So peacefull...to see...to hear...to feel.
Go ahead 🙏🏿!
One of the best musical groups on the planet. Everything is so amazing. Brazilian greetings to you.
I love the Swallowtail Jig! I've contra-danced to that many times. Great rendition!
These guys are so beautiful! Their music makes me so happy!
This group is a pure pleasure to watch and listen to.
one of my favorites you go guys!
Che bella musica!! si guardano e sorridono sempre !! tanta gioia e serenità in quella musica. Grazie ciao ciao
Gets me every time I listen to it! 😍
Very tricky rhythm! Cool
Fantastic! Great musicianship, as always. And who knew Aaron had a mean streak? Haha!
Oh, wow! New favorite. I absolutely love celtic music!
Katie blends that sound on her fiddle so perfectly They all do so well really Hard to pick just one Magic music this tune Bravo
It is perfect running!!!......Heart beating is in well
I love this song! What a great bunch of musicians! The background was perfect! I love Katie's response at the end!
Are you serious , Are you serious !! What a wonderful Lady.
Oh Katie....you made this so fun with "Are you serious!?" After all the energy you put into the dance, I'm glad he was joking LOL. I love how each musician plays solo, then everyone plays together towards the end. God bless you all.
The sun shone brightly for the Petersen's today, Well done
Always love the credit/post credit videos along with the awesome music
That was a terrific rendition of an Irish classic. Beautiful as always thank you!
I have a new favorite! Thanks y'all!
THE best group in America in 2021,hands down.

Such à Nice and brillant family !!
Nice. Glad I stumbled across this group
Nice touch with "Angelina Baker" at the end. A very sad song from the Civil War era that detailed the horrors of slavery. Thank you all so much for keeping traditional music alive. See you on Patreon!
Vaya. Eso no sabía. Creía que era un canción alegre.
@@jnsebsmorochm same here
FiddleHed has a tutorial for it!
Brilliant!
this is a prime example of a family that prays together and plays together stays together. you can just see the joy in their faces as they look at each other! God bless this family on future endeavors❤😊
I love this song! Irish fiddle tunes are wonderful and The Petersens are superb!
The WHOLE world-probably the UNIVERSE-loves Katie, Ellen, Mat, Julz, Emmett & Momma Petersen!
Beautiful
The O'Petersens. It's grand.
My name is Paul Peterson and this band of family members is great. I play Banjo and guitar also. I played with a band called the Stoneflied River Band! We just had our 40th anniversary at Motor Boating in Glen Havin Wi owned by Jerry Day ! Packed. I have a lot of respect for the Petersen as they will make it big! Thank you
adorable, a bonus dance as well.. love
oooooooo boy! We needed something positive this week. Thank you.
All of them quite talented , love it , me irish !
I love this tune so much! You guys sound amazing! 🥰
Brilliant and perfection . ❤ from Scotland 🏴
Best arrangement of Swallowtail I've heard! Love how each instrument gets a go at the melody
OLD SCHOOL ❤
Im a dropnout
Wonderful! I heard Dougie MacLean plays this many years ago. If you are not familiar with him, he is a wonderful Scottish singer, songwriter, musician (multi-instrument). Warms my heart and my soul to hear this wonderful tune. Keep 'em coming!
This is therapy in these times! Just love your music and smiles..... Thank you!
I too am from Ireland and I love the bridge that Emmett added - really adds to an already super performance. Well done all. Love your music.
Awesome and so much fun. Listened to this on my way home and picked up my guitar as soon as I got home. I found the song in my picker's fakebook that I have not picked up in some time. Picking along at quarter speed gave me a whole new appreciation of how talented you all are.
The whole family is so talented. Loved the instrumental. But you guys can sing with anyone. Wow. Thank You
Extraordinarily talented group, and what a great collection of microphones!
Well, I just watched the swallow tail jig for 1000 times over the last month, and every time I watch the outro I still laugh my butt off, ARE YOU SERIOUS! Katie cracks me up every time. It never gets old...
Loved, loved LOVED this! Thank you!!
I am so proud of you kids.. Keep it up!
That friends is fiddlin, pickin, good foot tapping music. Thanks for this great rendition.
