Billy Strings, I have never in my life experienced the brilliance that is what you are. A true master of your craft. I am astonished every time I listen to you perform. Amazing.
totally, a lot of bluegrass and folk has a lot of feeling so it's cool when players like Billy comes around and is influenced by a lot of other rock and roll band we like anyway.
Billy Strings,, this is Mike again. Your music has inspired so many people I've had the great pleasure of sharing it with. Please come & play for us in Boise Idaho. We love ya & need you. Im a Greatful recovering addict w/ 7.5 YRS. Of complete sobriety & your music has touched the hearts & minds of so many others here in recovery. " We" cant thank you enough. Thank you & God bless you & keep you until then.🙏🙏🙏🙏Michael Treadway.
Thank you, That shows true fan appreciation & respect. On another note Recovery month is all of SEPT. What a huge impact of you & the boys in the band could make by playing a show here. Id sale everything i own to pay the cost of production. 🙏🙏❤🙏Im praying now, hope to see y'all soon.
@@granthatchett Thank you. I believe in endurance & longevity. Ill keep pleading till someone sees & hears me until it happens!! I dont know what quit means.✌🙏💪😎
Mike, I'm proud of you for beating back your demons but don't let it define you. It's just part of spiritual growth. Put the label of addict behind you and focus on the positive aspects of your life. Your spiritual training wheels are off and the self awareness you've gained is a blessing. Embrace your life, love your friends and family and most of all....yourself.
I just deleted Facebook from my phone. Returning to what I was. My love of music and beating the hell out of my guitar. Beatin some heaven in. Thanks Billy!!
Remember the time we were both eye to eye And we both knew the reasons why It seemed like we faced the world on our own Before we collide can we just take a moment Collecting reflections of this And remember the paths that we chose Spring lied to us this year again I can't stand to face the fear again But you could always laugh about those things It's enough to make a man feel sour Burning minutes every day by the hour Just to end up gone like everything else Let go of the pain and hold onto the rhythm It's consciously held back in you You're drowning a sorrow that's long been at rest The past is a hell, it can creep up inside you So let me remind you of this It's the reason your troubles exist Spring lied to us again this year And still I can't stand to face the fear Will you always laugh about those things? It's enough to make a man stay humble Every day is just a new chance to stumble Just to end up gone like everything else If ever a time comes around in the wheel To replace where we stand side by side We'll be ready and able to fly Away from the mire And the senseless decisions of somebody's wasted desire Through the smoke and the wind and the fire Spring lied to us this year again I can't stand to face the fear again But you could always laugh about those things It's enough to make a man feel sour Burning minutes every day by the hour Just to end up gone like everything else
@@jimrebrBilly said he wrote this at a time when he and his brother were having some trouble getting along. I'm sure he would tell you it can be about anything you need it to be about.
69 years old. Saw Billy and the band 6 months ago. When they jammed on this tune it was the closest thing I have seen to an early 70s Dead show . Young and old , Long hairs and business men......we were just lost in the music
There's an unspoken sense of relation. Good and honest music can heal the broken society of today. Let us never leave the adventure of experiencing music.
I cant listen to this song while I drive because of the tears welling up in my eyes from the perfect beauty of this master piece. Billy you're an old soul and it shines.❤
This song haunts me; I can't get enough of it. Sometimes I don't let myself OD on a song I really love, but this one I am over indulging in for sure, listening to it over and over, even learning to play (the verse and chorus) on guitar. I was lucky to get to see you guys in LA last week. The entire band was top notch, which I expected, but the singing just blew me away. I'm a bluegrass fan and it wasn't my usual crowd, but so worth it to see you and your band play. Even the long drive in LA traffic didn't deter me. One of the best shows I've seen and I see a ton of live shows.
It's hard to deny talent like his even if you're not a fan of the genre. I don't listen to much metal at all but I can definitely admire the talent of some metal bands.
Billy Strings is by far the best guitar player and songwriter of this time period. He renews my hope in music..haven't heard a bad tune by him and his covers are great as well, as he has a phenomenal taste in music as well and surrounds himself with great musicians as well so his live performances are amazing 👏 😀 😊
I love Billy, I think he's the best bluegrass player walking currently by far. But also check out Philip Sayce, dudes insane, by far the best blues guitarist walking and very possibly, the most talented guitarist walking in general at the moment. I do agree however billy is one of the best songwriters I've heard in very very long time. Philip is a very good writer as well check him out.
This mite be getting ridiculous! Only discovered Billy 2 weeks ago. Every day I keep finding live concerts on line. Or another like this I have never heard before. Seems like the music just keeps getting better and better! And it's all coming from Billy or the whole band. I have seen most of the greats in music. Billy you are in good company. It's like your saving modern music! Just amazing! Great music goes way beyond what is being played! Comes from a very special place. That is why we are all witnessing something very special!
Just saw this on Austin city limits.. not only is it a beautifully written song, but his extended solos at the end reminded me of a seventies Led Zeppelin concert. Haven't seen anything like it in years.
This song is about the close friends that Billy has lost to addiction. Its words are brilliant and so perfect! Your concert was amazing in Portland Oregon and I hope to see you again
@333jas theres a lot of that..gonna be makin the rounds hard soon 😪 gonna be more in 3 weeks than we lost in 17 1/3y vietnam. live it up peeps.. that reeper shit is no joke... ..
He said on Austin City Limits he wrote it after a fight with his brother. in an interview, he said "The song Away From The Mire came about from a fight I had with my brother. I wrote all this stuff, and it’s really a song about letting go of the pain, moving on and getting on with your life, and not dwelling on the past and being stuck in the stuff that happened before"
Billy, thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for this. I recently had a medical emergency. I collapsed and stopped breathing. I was revived and admitted to the ICU with acute respiratory failure, sepsis, aspiration pneumonia, Flu and Pneumonia, but oh boy the reason I'm here now goes so much deeper. I was hiding. And now I'm exposed, vulnerable. I'm trying so hard to overcome the hell of my past. I can't stop crying, wondering what I'm still doing here. I almost wanted that release. Maybe I'm rambling, I just need to get this out somehow. If I am going to be around, I want a more fulfilling existence. I know I created my troubles, that's why they exist, and the reality is, I either overcome them, or I don't. I have a long road ahead of me. I've been in the hospital for 23 days, crawling in my skin for most of it. Probably another 21 more or so. I'm going to see you live one day though and it's going to be amazing. For anyone who listened, thank you, and I truly hope you have the happiness, or will, that we're all searching for.
So I am a 52 year old guitar player, I have always struggled with wanting to play blues on electric. I have never been able to make an electric song, like I can on acoustic. Thanks to Billy Strings, I learned my to passion for playing acoustic bluegrass music. I love it, my wife claims I was made for it, I am having fun again. Thank you!
Being a huge metalhead. I love this stuff, the tightness the musicianship is unmatched. They are as good live as they are on the album. I had tickets for all the #streamingstrings tour. Hope to see them live soon.
I saw him live a few weeks ago. WOW. What a show. I had seen several of his songs, but this song was the climax of the show, with a super trippy insane 7 minute solo in the middle. I came to TH-cam to find what it was called. So good. Please, go see them if you can!
My ex said I listened to too much Bluegrass... Its my home though. I'm a singer and a song writer and everything I hear is how I feel. It brings me back to being a kid and dancing at festivals and feeling like I was in a simpler time. There's something so fucking ethereal about that kind of thing. Mali and Carrie then forced Billy Strings hour on me, and then Grateful Dead hour and so on. It became a part of me. Your TH-cam videos made me keep my ground in a world wide pandemic.
OMG! I had 2 read this for like 20 mins. I don't remember writing your prose. U thought maybe I drank too much.. no, @kassidyquintessalli6.. u did! You're verbiage is so uncanny to mine. I had to connect and cry💪💝🥹🥹🥹😿😿
I'm 44 years old as of 6 days ago, and it's 4:30am here in Ont. Canada..I just woke up for a quick washroom trip and came back to lie down for a bit more..Seconds later I couldn't get the thought out of my head how much I needed to hear Away From The Mire to fall back asleep..Other than Native Chants, I haven't listened to music during sleep in over 30 years..Thank you Billy Strings and the ladz 🤘
I just fell instantly in love with this song, this video, this voice. There is an undefinable magic in what’s going on, here. It’s precious and mysterious to me, and I love it.
Billy and the band, I'm amazed and inspired by everything you do. This song instantly became my favorite for personal reasons. You are destined to be an iconic band that will stand the test of time through the ages. The world is a better place because of you all. Much love and respect...
One day I will see you preform live Billy, and the world will be wonderful again, if only for a little while. Your music helps me deal with my grief when nothing else does, and for that I am eternally grateful to you my friend
Went to both Berkeley shows...some cool ass hippie kids from Ohio were walking around with no tickets...they told me that Billy pulled up in his tour buss and blessed all of them on his guest list... with passes...saw them all in the show...we ragged it
“Just to end up gone like everything else” seeing things for how they truly are is what’s most impressive, not to take away from the incredible talent .
Wow... Not only was the song out of this world Whoever did the animation for the video. You should hire that guy to do a screen behind your show. The three-dimensional artwork he does is off the charts. Eventually, you should think about it at never hurt Pink Floyd made them. One of the biggest bands in the world made the Grateful Dead one of the biggest bands in the world. That animation was off the charts. It fit the song Perfectly. Beautiful A masterpiece
Mom & Dad must be Proud! Fan for life Billy Strings... You put so much joy into this Life for me and many others. Your music is lasting frequency, eternal.💠3️⃣3️⃣💠
I was there to watch this live on Friday the 10th of December....I was sitting in the handicap section with my dad who is in a wheelchair. Billy Strings, i have your Set 2 SET LIST! My hands were shaking as a carried it out of the venue. You are one of a kind! If i weren't a 13 year old with no income i would come to all your concerts! I've never cheered so much in my life.... I was literally 10 freaking feet away from you when you stepped down off the stage towards the Handicap section guitaring to this exact song!! There are no words to explain what i felt in that moment.....Maybe when I've got money of my own i'll pay to be in the VIP crew so I can meet you....Crazy to imagine i can buy my way into meeting you....I'd be speechless if I met you.....🤩🥴🤗...You are Amazing, Awesome, Spectacular, Talented as crap, and SOOOO much more! Keep it UP! and make sure to make your way around back to Georgia when I've got a job! 😁😶🌫😶🌫😁😁🤩🤩🥴😵💫🙌🙌🙌👏👏👏🤟🤘🤟🤘✌✌.......Your concert made me speechless.....i still am...Not only can you PICK THE HECK out of a guitar....Your voice is AWESOME TOO!
Wow! BILLY'S just blowing my mind right now...and thru the smoke💨, and the wind ~a gusty breeze grows~ ....fueling the fire...as it🔥 grows ....In the mist of this memory... I choose to dance and sing... I rejoice in life... it's my lot to celebrate and🔍 discover all the wondrous aspects of our time here🌱💙🎶💐☯🍓🎢🌞📚🍀🌻🌠🎼🦄🌈🎻👫🌌... peace ands luv for y'all
Just watched this again. It is so trippy and beautiful, and I love that song so much that I learned how to play it and sing it now. :-) As everybody has witnessed, you are something else, and so special. We are blessed and grateful to have you arrive at this particular time in our lives, you come as a refreshing new and hopeful light. You will no doubt go down in history for even more than your great music, Thank you. ❤️
Drowning a sorrow that's long been at rest.... The past is a Hell... it can creep up inside you..so let me remind you of this...... there is a reason your troubles exist... it's called trauma or ptsd..... . "I can't stand to face the fear again" (this lyric could refer to flashbacks) ...fear can be crippling.... great tune🎼... 💥brilliant video🎬
The video of that kid on the couch playing the song he wrote for a competition was mind blowing. It’s not often you’re treated to talent in its purest form. This is the music you want to share with everyone you know so they don’t miss a second of the greatness.
My favorite song. Edit. August, 2021. Locked down in Australia. I have 3 Billy Strings CDs now. (Got em off his page) They live in my car. I go for a drive, Just so i can hang out with Billy. Thanks mate.
One more thing.... To cover panic in Athens and bring the house down is a feat in itself. Especially without a drummer hint. All time low in psychedelic bluegrass was epic.
I absolutely love this song! I'm a metalhead that loves bands like Pantera and Slipknot and I didn't even like bluegrass until my friend showed me "meet me at the creek" and you opened my eyes to a whole new genre. And the more I listen to you it doesn't get old, it just keeps getting better. Keep doing what you love Billy, your music has inspired us all. PS watching this video tripping is 10/10 👽😁
This song is almost too good for our ears...
Heavenly isn't it???
Billy Strings, I have never in my life experienced the brilliance that is what you are. A true master of your craft. I am astonished every time I listen to you perform. Amazing.
Man I feel the same. Plus I play my guitars a lot more .
Darin Harrison almost close to Jerry Garcia
Old and in the way
Billy Strings is the shit, check out Kitchen Dwellers and Trampled By Turtles
ditto
The type of song you listen to,
and it fucks around and changes your life for the better.
I needed this today. Who else needed this today

That was a nice little trip

Nothing like some music with feeling. Psycodelic bluegrass. Billy strings and his band are as true as true gets.

I dropped it 4 yrs ago. Never was really into it. Life is to valuable to piss away.
Remember the time we were both eye to eye
And we both knew the reasons why
It seemed like we faced the world on our own
Before we collide can we just take a moment
Collecting reflections of this
And remember the paths that we chose
Spring lied to us this year again
I can't stand to face the fear again
But you could always laugh about those things
It's enough to make a man feel sour
Burning minutes every day by the hour
Just to end up gone like everything else
Let go of the pain and hold onto the rhythm
It's consciously held back in you
You're drowning a sorrow that's long been at rest
The past is a hell, it can creep up inside you
So let me remind you of this
It's the reason your troubles exist
Spring lied to us again this year
And still I can't stand to face the fear
Will you always laugh about those things?
It's enough to make a man stay humble
Every day is just a new chance to stumble
Just to end up gone like everything else
If ever a time comes around in the wheel
To replace where we stand side by side
We'll be ready and able to fly
Away from the mire
And the senseless decisions of somebody's wasted desire
Through the smoke and the wind and the fire
Spring lied to us this year again
I can't stand to face the fear again
But you could always laugh about those things
It's enough to make a man feel sour
Burning minutes every day by the hour
Just to end up gone like everything else
Awesome, thank you
TY!!!

Same.
Bluegrass is hillbilly heavy metal
He use to be in a metal band

This kid is a gifted artist....Grounded in bluegrass, but he channels all these different strands of rock n roll....Beautiful song.....;-)
Wow Who the f IS Billy MFing Strings ? This guy is the most talented musician I've seen in quite some time. New bluegrass fan.
There's no words for this talent.. Amazing, Unreal!!

Love, love, LOVE this tune! Animation is sick too.

If this doesnt restore your faith in music nothing will.
Thinking this exact thing while listing and working. Not just produced on a Mac
Went to both Berkeley shows...some cool ass hippie kids from Ohio were walking around with no tickets...they told me that Billy pulled up in his tour buss and blessed all of them on his guest list... with passes...saw them all in the show...we ragged it
Then raged LA shows after
This song is achingly, desperately, beautiful.
This " kids" brilliance shines thu on this song..I'm keeping it short & sweet so I can listen again..
“Just to end up gone like everything else” seeing things for how they truly are is what’s most impressive, not to take away from the incredible talent .
This shit is fucking beautiful best trip ever thanks billy
This one will age well
Ho Lee fuk! You should be really proud of yourself dude. Thiis is one of the greatest things I've ever heard!
Wow... Not only was the song out of this world Whoever did the animation for the video. You should hire that guy to do a screen behind your show. The three-dimensional artwork he does is off the charts. Eventually, you should think about it at never hurt Pink Floyd made them. One of the biggest bands in the world made the Grateful Dead one of the biggest bands in the world. That animation was off the charts. It fit the song Perfectly. Beautiful A masterpiece
So good.
Mom & Dad must be Proud! Fan for life Billy Strings... You put so much joy into this Life for me and many others. Your music is lasting frequency, eternal.💠3️⃣3️⃣💠
Ive been obsessed with billy strings and marcus king, ive been listening to a lot of their covers, but holy fuck, his originals are fucking gold
Something about Billy it this music that makes me smile though the day he is one of the best musician ever that has played bluegrass guitar
My head just exploded at the 3 minute mark🤯. The acoustical talent here is in...
I was there to watch this live on Friday the 10th of December....I was sitting in the handicap section with my dad who is in a wheelchair. Billy Strings, i have your Set 2 SET LIST! My hands were shaking as a carried it out of the venue. You are one of a kind! If i weren't a 13 year old with no income i would come to all your concerts! I've never cheered so much in my life.... I was literally 10 freaking feet away from you when you stepped down off the stage towards the Handicap section guitaring to this exact song!! There are no words to explain what i felt in that moment.....Maybe when I've got money of my own i'll pay to be in the VIP crew so I can meet you....Crazy to imagine i can buy my way into meeting you....I'd be speechless if I met you.....🤩🥴🤗...You are Amazing, Awesome, Spectacular, Talented as crap, and SOOOO much more! Keep it UP! and make sure to make your way around back to Georgia when I've got a job! 😁😶🌫😶🌫😁😁🤩🤩🥴😵💫🙌🙌🙌👏👏👏🤟🤘🤟🤘✌✌.......Your concert made me speechless.....i still am...Not only can you PICK THE HECK out of a guitar....Your voice is AWESOME TOO!
Cool story. Glad you enjoyed so much. He’s a rare talent. One you’re just happy to be on the planet with at the same time.

I choose to dance and sing... I rejoice in life... it's my lot to celebrate and🔍 discover all the wondrous aspects of our time here🌱💙🎶💐☯🍓🎢🌞📚🍀🌻🌠🎼🦄🌈🎻👫🌌... peace ands luv for y'all
Just watched this again. It is so trippy and beautiful, and I love that song so much that I learned how to play it and sing it now. :-)
As everybody has witnessed, you are something else, and so special. We are blessed and grateful to have you arrive at this particular time in our lives, you come as a refreshing new and hopeful light. You will no doubt go down in history for even more than your great music, Thank you. ❤️
Drowning a sorrow that's long been at rest.... The past is a Hell... it can creep up inside you..so let me remind you of this...... there is a reason your troubles exist... it's called trauma or ptsd..... . "I can't stand to face the fear again" (this lyric could refer to flashbacks) ...fear can be crippling.... great tune🎼... 💥brilliant video🎬
Just discovered Billy and the band and this song has quickly become one of my all time favorites
The video of that kid on the couch playing the song he wrote for a competition was mind blowing. It’s not often you’re treated to talent in its purest form.
This is the music you want to share with everyone you know so they don’t miss a second of the greatness.
Beautiful
I love you, Billy.
Bliss. Thank you for this!! See you in Nashville!! 🙃
My favorite song.
Edit.
August, 2021.
Locked down in Australia.
I have 3 Billy Strings CDs now.
(Got em off his page)
They live in my car.
I go for a drive,
Just so i can hang out with Billy.
Thanks mate.
One more thing.... To cover panic in Athens and bring the house down is a feat in itself. Especially without a drummer hint. All time low in psychedelic bluegrass was epic.
i was like, huh? but the i realise u meant athens in the states?
We sure love you, Bill. Hope the fall tour is the most enjoyable one yet .
Beautiful brother. Truly. 💗💗💗
Why am I just finding you Billy Strings? Wow… Masterful…
god damn this song is just a straight banger. cant get enough.
Wow...OMG...if I were a song...❤❤❤
Billy my good old friend Mike put me in track with you man and I’m beyond blessed I found your music!
This song and album is just amazing. The lyrics are so good. I can write so much more, but I am too busy listening
I absolutely love this song! I'm a metalhead that loves bands like Pantera and Slipknot and I didn't even like bluegrass until my friend showed me "meet me at the creek" and you opened my eyes to a whole new genre. And the more I listen to you it doesn't get old, it just keeps getting better. Keep doing what you love Billy, your music has inspired us all. PS watching this video tripping is 10/10 👽😁
When things went psychedelic.... I just couldn’t believe it. So perfectly done.
Can't wait to take the family to see you tomorrow night. We love you Billy. You and your band are amazing.
