About BILLY STRINGS:
Michigan-born and now Nashville-based, Billy Strings is a GRAMMY Award-winning singer, songwriter and musician, who arrived on the scene as “one of string music’s most dynamic young stars” (Rolling Stone). Strings is in the midst of a triumphant year after winning Best Bluegrass Album at the 63rd GRAMMY Awards for his critically acclaimed record, Home. Produced by Glenn Brown, the record also led Strings to top Billboard’s 2020 year-end charts in both Bluegrass categories-Top Bluegrass Artists and Top Bluegrass Albums-and continues to receive widespread critical acclaim. Of the release, The Associated Press proclaims, “it is his creative musical storytelling, paired with solid vocals on Home that should seal the deal, pleasing fans of the genre and creating some new ones…the perfect blend of pure talent and pluck,” while The Wall Street Journal declares, “Billy Strings has clearly emerged as a premier guitar flatpicker of this era.” Since his debut, Strings has been awarded Guitar Player of the Year and New Artist of the Year at the 2019 International Bluegrass Music Awards, selected as one of Rolling Stone’s “New Country Artists to Know” and performed on “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” and PBS’ “Bluegrass Underground.” Known for his electric live shows, Strings will continue his extensive headline tour throughout 2021 including upcoming shows in Los Angeles, Seattle, Chicago, Denver, Austin, Atlanta and Nashville among several others.
Out September 24 via Rounder Records, Renewal was produced by Jonathan Wilson (Conor Oberst, Roger Waters, Father John Misty) and solidifies Strings’ position as a singular artist-one who honors the history of the music that inspires him, while continually pushing it forward. With the record’s sixteen tracks, Strings shares a more personal and honest perspective through his songwriting, while incorporating his wide range of influences with elements of bluegrass, classic rock, metal, psychedelic music and more.
LYRICS
(Apostol / Failing / Masat / Walker)
A twisted game of hide and seek
The stench of darkness and defeat
Another day without relief
Leaves me broken
Curtains falling all around
Echoes up from underground
Screaming out without a sound
Leaves me breathless
Well it’s a dark time I do believe
A cold winds a blowin' at my door
Incredible light I'm gonna find
Where I don’t have to worry anymore
A feast for eyes deprived of peace
Internal pressure no release
Pain eternal my disease
Neverending
Paralyzed and drowned in thought
All the things that I have lost
My salvation can't be bought
Drains me empty
Well it’s a dark time I do believe
A cold winds a blowin' at my door
Incredible light I'm gonna find
Where I don’t have to worry anymore
I wasn’t ready to believe
Constant failure to achieve
Nothing hidden up my sleeve
I remember
Well it’s a dark time I do believe
A cold winds a blowin' at my door
Incredible light I'm gonna find
Where I don’t have to worry anymore
It’s a dark time I do believe
A cold winds a blowin' at my door
Incredible light I'm gonna find
Where I don’t have to worry anymore

They recorded this jam in one take. Legends
That's incredible to think about!
Highly doubtful.. I've seen it live and it's not as crisp as this
Well..you only get 1 take every night..and with the ever evolving set lists..Never know?whats coming..BEST BAND ROLLING
@@markmuth2498 that's what Billy said during the Renewal release livestream
100% accurate. Not only was it a live jam, it was the first take.
PROGRESSIVE BLUEGRASS a.k.a. Billy Strings music…
A darn way of life for those blessed to have this virtuoso’s guitar and voice in their ears!
Bela Fleck? Leftover Salmon? Grateful Dead? String Cheese? Punch Brothers? Progressive Bluegrass is diverse and has been around for a while. But yeah, Billy Strings is amazing and I'm glad he's around making awesome music and keeping the flame burning
@@thealaskapicker8628 thank you for the suggestions haha!!
@@thealaskapicker8628 You're right about all these other other musicians, but the Greatful Dead ist dead, after all. I love hearing Billy Strings in 2022 (the tickets for his live show are in my drawer, waiting for his live show later this year 😀)
That fiddle really tyes the room together man
Billy isn't the best at what he does he the only one who does what he does.
Gee, I've seen that somewinterlandwhere before ; )
Not really.
This group… it’s like a painting whose colors get more vibrant and blended with time. Phenomenal!
I've been listening to Billy Strings (& The Stringers) since they started and they have grown consistently into a top notch bluegrass unit...it's been amazing to behold....
Finding out this is about suicide took it from evil to sadness. Be like the owl for your friends, the life, the eyes, and the silent protector in the darkness. Love people not things. Use things, not people.
Oh brother, does that make this song hit so much harder.
Amen brother
Beautifully said my friend.
Finding out the words mean what they’re talking about is really wild.
Epic vibes🤙
Like a nice train ride across the cosmos with Billy at the helm. Once in a lifetime!!
I like this

This is my favorite off the album so far! So beautiful!
yeaaahhh, to me too!!
Finally! No longer have to sift thru yube tube videos to catch this song! Saw this live in August and was captivated. Been blasting and pickin it ever since. God bless everyone
Fuck yeah bud
Yeah. Fuck yeah! 🤓👍🏴
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
If Meet Me at the Creek and Turmoil and Tinfoil had a child, it would be this song.
That's what immediately came to mind when I first heard this song
dont forget Red Rocking Chair which in my opinion, is the predecessor to Meet me at the Creek.
Agree mate
Billy is the El Camino of music. Is it metal or is it Bluegrass?
And the answer is YES!
I'm sure my friend, he has that way about him, which I think makes him great...
Prog Bluegrass? Country metal? Fuck yeah!😂👍
The first time that I heard this , on Austin City limits , thought , this is "Blue Grass"?. Where has this ...Song style
..been in my musical journey? My highlight from this new 'Renewal' album so far .. Keep them coming.. MR. Springs ! !
It just keeps getting better and better.
For those Who Say that perfection doesnt exist ....that Guy is the greatest .... Billy is more present in my life than Covid.. 😂🤘🏻 Never stop !
Haha! Go on Billy Strings!🤪
Love to you Billy, coming from a lost man on the other side of the ocean.
hands down the Best newer original all around musician and group out there
"Hide And Seek"
A twisted game of hide and seek
The stench of darkness and defeat
Another day without relief
Leaves me broken
Curtains falling all around
Echoes up from underground
Screaming out without a sound
Leaves me breathless
Well it's a dark time I do believe
A cold winds a blowin' at my door
Incredible light I'm gonna find
Where I don't have to worry anymore
A feast for eyes deprived of peace
Internal pressure no release
Pain eternal my disease
Neverending
Paralyzed and drowned in thought
All the things that I have lost
My salvation can't be bought
Drains me empty
Well it's a dark time I do believe
A cold winds a blowin' at my door
Incredible light I'm gonna find
Where I don't have to worry anymore
I wasn't ready to believe
Constant failure to achieve
Nothing hidden up my sleeve
I remember
Well it's a dark time I do believe
A cold winds a blowin' at my door
Incredible light I'm gonna find
Where I don't have to worry anymore
It's a dark time I do believe
A cold winds a blowin' at my door
Incredible light I'm gonna find
Where I don't have to worry anymore
So hyped on this band. This track is ethereal
Going to see him in st. A tomorrow. Cant wait. The goats on the rise
Legends in the making! One love.
To be honest, I hadn't heard about Billy Strings before I saw him on Jimmy Kimmel yesterday.. And now Im hooked!
I come form a long line of bluegrass musicians, nothing compares to the way Billy does it fr
I saw him do this song for the first time on the Grammy Awards Show and I was hooked.
This album lights my world on fire! 🔥🔥🔥🔥😍
What an epic song. They need to tour with Gangstagrass.
A masterpiece, pure and simple.
The thing I appreciate the most about this video is that the leaf subtly blows in the breeze.
Your unique influences really shine through on t his track. I love everything about it.
Incredible work, boys
My favorite song off the album. Hints of turmoil and tinfoil and meet me at the creek in there.
So good.
A totally enjoyable piece of music to listen to : )
Holy cow. New fan for life
Wow this is surprisingly proggy! Reminds me of Dixie Dregs :)
perfect is an overused word. this is a perfect song
BMFS 🐐🐐🇺🇸
Amazing.
BRILLIANT....
Absolutely amazing!!!!
Awesome
this is the best track from Renewal imo
Epic!
Wow just wow .
Just wow!
So good
I'll take live sesh over recorded any day!
We can't wait to see Billy in Asheville next month in Asheville North Carolina, October 29th, my second show, my husbands first!
If there is such a thing as magic. It's there at the Billy live shows ❤
Man, Billy, I sure am glad you came along, and you just get better and better. I can't wait to get my hands on my copy of Renewal when you guys send it to me. Jam on.
Is Billy Strings the successor to Tony Rice? No one could ever replace Tony, but this young man definitely has some chops.
Did Mastodon help write this one?
I'm so hard and it's not even 7 am. Thank you Billy.
Excuse me now? YOU'RE WHAT????
I can't understand the " failing" thing, I think he" s great!!!
Twisted game of hide an seeeeeek....
What a fucking banger this is 🔥
I don’t believe in god, but I think I just had a spiritual experience
everything’s gonna be different now….
🤘🤘🤘🔥🔥🔥
Refreshing. Need that outlaw shit
Definitely some Split Lip Rayfield vibes on this one.
I love the combination of bluegrass and punk/metal power chord work. Very cool. I’ve heard it done before but seldom this well. Elmer? Maybe they did it but Billy is a better songwriter.
Mmmm Sooo goooood
I like this alot.
Goddamn, Billy
Haven't heard anything i don't like from these guys
Shout out to all my guitar friend who learned how to play this by watching concert footage
I'm not into bluegrass at all. That being said, this is incredible.
This album gets better each time I listen to it. No joke. Incredible.
hi friends, don't let big bro get you down. grow some veggies. and read your Bible, its good for the soul.
Factual
Yessir.
@Ynnnoj V cringe
The bible has nothing to do with Jesus
@@joshforeman1648 You mean the book where all of the second half and most of the first half is about him and references by name? What a bad take
Makes me mad that there is an ad in the literal middle of the song. I’m trying to listen to bluegrass not the oreilly jingle.
Billy where my little picture and heart next to this comment
❤️
Can't uploads for music be set so ads don't play in the middle only start or end?
get an adblocker extension
@Hrogthar my point being that billy himself as well as fans would likely prefer that and it's a setting whoever handles the page can change.
@@lacyfins9627 It's a fair point for sure, but if you want to solve the issue for you altogether it's just an option.
Man...
A good song. Consider, though, the chorus:
"Well it’s a dark time I do believe
A cold winds a blowin' at my door
Incredible light I'm gonna find
Where I don’t have to worry anymore"
Despite the song’s instrumental mirth, the chorus comes from the final text messages a friend sent before committing suicide.
Woof!! How's that for being hit right between the eyes in the middle of your enjoyment?
Such it has been for one Billy Strings. It's a wonder he doesn't scream.

At the risk of being labeled the loonie of the century, at age 83 I say that the subject of this song made his choice. Who am I to tell him he is wrong? His pain was immense. At any time, we make a choice as to how we will relieve our pain.
@@alshoney3 I'm not in disagreement though would point out that your perspective as an aged person is rational. If you're maybe twenty at most it's less so overall. In any case I daresay growing old is not for the weak-minded, is it? 😉
And so it goes.
John, so far, i am enjoying old age. ;-)
@@alshoney3 I'm not quite at the same line as you, age wise, but I'm passed the "legal" age of retirement. Still have my health and, I think (heh), most of my mind. So I agree.
I never try to advise because most of life has to be directly experienced, but if there's one thing I'd say to the young I'd say don't get so caught up in your awful that you think there's no way thru. Stick to it....because what you may lose as time goes by gets made up for in oh so many ways unfathomable to you at the time. Hold on to the joy and let go of everything else. Do this and it will see you thru.
But what do I know? I'm just skatin' along out here heading god only knows where.....and he/she/it ain't tellin'....just leadin' the way....me I just try my best to listen and follow....
Good luck to you.

i grew up with him, went to the same school as him. i know his family and friends, so im wonderig who you are talking about. yes weve had some friends overdose and die but none meant to commit suicide that i know of, so im really wondering who the hell youre talking about.
Turning my 5yo nephew into a fan
So fast
Very similar to turmoil and the tinfoil
Is this a bluegrass band of prog rock musicians or what?
shame they mixed this masterpiece like shit for the grammys
this version is god damn great
