- Dear Nick, thanks again for sharing your Arkansas ways and musings with the world. These days the world looks like it's going to burn and burn us all with it, but your music god willing seems to slow its progress, if not reverse it whole. Appreciate getting to know you these past few years. Thanks for getting me the hell out of Wyoming for bit. Here's to a good trip this weekend.
Mike - 02/08/21
P.S. Thank you Nick's cousins, Willi Carlisle and Dearl ( Dylan Earl ) for the accompaniment and rolling through the woods with us.
Nick's new record "HOME ON THE RAGE" is out: 4/20/2021

Some things run deeper than blood,🤘🏻💘 like the Ozarks and folk music.
Fuck yeah!
Wili is the truth
You guys are brilliant
This guy from Ozarks? I literally clicked on this because I’m from there and the scenery reminded me of home.
@@gh8cw nicks from Fayetteville, this is definitely filmed in the hills 😎
The most talented mullet in music
YES
😂😂 A lofty honor, to be sure.
billy ray cyrus would have to argue with that....
Billy Ray Cyrus and Morgan Wallen step aside, here's the greatest mullet in music!
@@orion7741 lol he’d be the only one arguing it
One of my proudest moments as a father…My wife texted me that my two year old was singing “Rise When the Rooster Crows” at the top of his lungs in the grocery store.
We just took a 12 drive to visit grandparents, and him and my 4 year old asked for nick shoulders almost the whole way down.
'The right to be lazy.' An often understated but wildly revolutionary thought. Let's all take a pause and cheers for that wisdom.
That stopped me in my tracks
There's an essay, from XIX century, about that topic called just the same "The right to be lazy", by the french marxist intellectual Paul Lafargue.
we also all have "the right to be productive and active".... laziness is not something to be proud of or to celebrate.
@@orion7741 a fair criticism, but I think “lazy” and “indulgent” don’t have to be the same thing, outside of industrial circumstances, productivity is noble, but otherwise...is it? Productive for who? We allow ourselves to believe the myth that all work is inherently good because we all have to work and otherwise it feels like a really raw deal. I’ve made money for awful people working thankless, hard jobs, and I’m not proud of that time I’ll never get back. But I’m proud to work for my community and myself without feeding the rat fuckers up top who depend on people thinking idleness is sin, having a right to laziness doesn’t mean someone didn’t earn it.
@@neckshoulders Damn straight
So unique. This channel has given a a new love for music and a stellar re-introduction to a genre of music I never really gave a second thought too.
Thank you.
I saw Nick and the boys at Abita Brewery Fall Festival in 2019 while visiting my brother in Covington, LA. I thought the guys sounded great. Nick sat down at my table (by invitation) and I bought him a beer and I bought his CD. It's still in the player in my truck. Nick, if you're reading this, you won't remember me but cheers from Thailand.
Hope that album is keeping ya company! Thanks for the company, cheers from North Louisiana! Or is it South Missouri?
when he said, "we are currently surrounded by rivercane and which i think is pretty cool" i officially fell in love. what a fucking perfect yodelin plant nerd angel.
This what I needed. Cheers from Minnesota where it's -9 degrees and I definitely don't wanna rise when the rooster crows
In brainerd its -17 now lol. What area are you from?
-39 up here in alberta
Celsius
Fookin -48°c lastnight with the wind chill, nice and frosty
@@NoootABigDeal was about to try to compete with -20 but you win
My 2 year old son yodels and tries to whistle and asks me to put on "home on rage" like every day lol he loves your music
My 2 year old calls him Nick Shouldies lol
@@elmac1285 he sits on the bricks with his little guitar and dangles his feet like "snakes and waterfalls"
Whenever my 22 month old starts acting up, i put Nick Shoulders on youtube and he sits mesmerised, he doesnt do it with any other musicians.
I got made fun of for liking home on the range
It's a kick ass song
This resonates heavy with me. I'm from Western NC, up in the blue ridge mountains and I'm currently working in Philadelphia as an ironworker. We get to go home and visit every so often and this last time I heard this song on the drive back, just as we created the hill that provides the view of Mt. Mitchell from I-40 that I associate with home. I'll probably always listen to this song whenever I return home and dream of retirement and moving back to where the river cane grows.
I love you Robert. Hope retirement comes peacefully fella.
I’ve been waking up to the song and singing along, has honestly been like a breath of fresh air. New part of my morning routine
my wife and i will be moving to maine soon. when i miss theese beautiful hills and rivers that make the ozarks ill turn on some nick shoulders and ill be home again.
Nick Shoulders is amazing. I love the scenery he choses for each video too!
Thank you, western AF, for introducing me to Nick Shoulders last year. His music talks to my soul, thats the only way I can describe it
A breathe of fresh air for real country music today.
This man is a treasure! I love everything he comes out with! Serious fan!
Willi is Nick's cousin too? What an awesome family tree! My favorite days are ones when a new Nick Shoulders video drops!
No freakin way
One hell of a family reunion I bet
Nick: I saw you in Spokane, WA opening for sierra Farrell 3/22. You have a God given talent. My wife & I were blown away by your vicals, songs, & choice of locations, on youtube. Your voice projects, and your attack on guitar strings brings a great sound. You are very creative & fun to watch/liksten to. Keep doing what you're doing.
Nick and Willi!
Nick wishing you love, happiness, good health, and continued success on Christmas day. I'm an aging music geek having come of age in the late seventies - a time of wildly creative, fun-loving bands recording straight to tape. It's a wonder to me that nowadays this punk rock spirit is best represented in new American roots music. I (a city mouse) brought my wife (a country mouse) to your New Orleans show last week and it was easily the most enjoyable show in memory. Amazing raw talent, intelligent and thoughtful song writing, and your sound... somebody deserves credit for the production quality of your recordings and live shows. This is golden please don't ever stop.
absolutely great cast of people, much love from the blue ridge mountains
American folk music hero. Nicks the truth pure southern gold
I love Nick, Cousin D'Earl and Willi.
This makes me yearn for summer!!!
I'm from Ft Smith and I hope to see you play soon. Thanks for keeping it real Mr Shoulders. You are awesome!
Nick Shoulders you do my heart good.
literally the first person i will go see live when i can
I'm speechless. This is just so pure.
Nick is such an amazing talent. I love when you post Western AF!
Pure Respect brother keep the country folk alive.

Western AF always finds that music I want to hear!
Nothing but bangers. Thank you Mr Shoulders
I love you Nick
I love this guy so much I wish I could throw some money in his guitar case -- so I bought one of his shirts instead. My kids love him too. They run in the backyard and yell, "pizza!" all the time.
Had to go pick up my guitar when I heard this. Love it. Inspired me to play again and I really feel the song.
That satin pink tanktop is some glorious stuff!
Another monster... thanks nick
Nick, you've done it again! :)
I've been craving the yodel for awhile now. nice to hear him again

God bless you. I have been fighting for the right to be lazy for a long time. The trouble was I could not be bothered to argue my point. Perhaps that is why I am broke. Beautiful music
My dog was very interested in y’all’s warmup in this video 😂
I love Mr. Shoulders

Awesome dude. Pure fire
Sounds great! I had heard that Tulsi “played a little guitar” 🤣

The Devil is a lie but Nick Shoulders is the truth. So excited to see him in Chicago in October.
