This interview is fundamentally important. Billy is the real deal. People need to here men talk about the importance and love of fathers.
I recommend the interview with Billy telling the story of the Martin guitar his father had to sell! I cried man 😢
J J I heard that interview about his dads guitar as well, that was beautiful. Billy really is a special guy with a good soul. Just got tickets to see em live at Summer camp 2020 😜 ft. Billy Strings and WEEN!!!! FTW 🙌🤟✌️
He is so full bull shit
That why we don't buy billy strings.
Yea dope dope
He is just sicken. Nobody believes that bull shit..
Billy is the real deal. If anyone can get young folks into bluegrass, it will be Billy.
Walking example, recovered mumble rap fan here lol.
skankhunt42 of course, both, big into both of them was lucky enough to see both of them this winter and have them both on my summer will see list as well🤗☺️🖤
And its 2021 and im stick rockin w billy! Thats my dude!!
Billy, that is a wonderful story. I love it thank you for telling us this story. You are such a nice young man. You are a great inspiration to all.
Billy has such an old soul!!! This kid has me playing my acoustic guitars again!!!
Indeed, a great interview. I had really misjudged Billy as another smart-alec kid, possibly a little full of himself. I could not have been more wrong. What a great outlook and light of hope. Keep picking and spinning Billy, and thanks again e-town!
Society has been reconditioned to judge others based trivial meaningless things....
The philosophy of not judging someone till you walk a mile in there shoes has been replaced.... Hope this was a reminder that we're not supposed to judge anyone by anything we see, hear or feel... only when we have spent time living their life and experiences... cheers bud
I wish I could listen to him talk all day. I'm over here like ..."shit, he gets it". We all have different reasons for finding music, and why it grasped us, and I love hearing other people's journey with that. He is the real deal. All the guys he plays with are the real deal, too. I wish I could watch them play every week lol. Also, super appreciative of how much they tour. I don't know how they do it, but you can see they have that passion.
Fine young man...the world needs more Billy!
TH-cam is being his friend
You are such an honest young man and that is a plus this day and time
Nick is such a great interviewer. Could listen to his interviews for hours.
Just ran across this living legend a few months ago.
I think one of ,if not the best guitarist I've ever seen.
Being from Eastern Kentucky myself, when he said he lived in Morehead for a while. That answered many questions.
He was right in the heart of Ricky Scaggs, Keith Whitley, and many other super musicians backyard. Thinking back, I was probably attending Morehead state , while he was starting his career.
Music has kept me going. This video brought some stuff up and I cried x
Listen up all y’all .... this guy is making MUSIC!! Love and appreciation coming straight at you Billy Strings! 🌀❤️🌀
Fantastic interview eTown. First time I've seen and got to hear this side of him.
Bless you for your decision. You are a very bright young man. I don't know you personally.I want you to know that I am proud of you. You made the right choice.
Great interview, by the way.
Great interview!
this guy is a beast picker...A BEAST..
he is seriously the fucking best.
Alot of Billy's and Molly's at bluegrass festivals around the country

My daddy started out playing clubs in dallas tx leon Rusch and played for bob will. Ray price for 10+ years hank thompson for 10+ years he work for the light crust dough boughs then we moved to Tennessee got a job will mel tillis played on willie nelson album that went gold i grew up sleeping in the back seat of the car while my dad played in clubs and i grew up in recording stuidos. Life was weird for me also when your dad grauated north texas state for music but played the fiddel in tx to feed us. He said if he played what he loved to play which is classical we would of starved to death so he played the country fiddle in then merel haggard signed him in 1980 up until his death in 2000 when he couldnt travel on the bus no longer and when he couldnt play no more he soon died after that so billy i can kind of relate to you personally you and i are what i call back stage babys.. We are rare that would be good song for all the back stage babys you and i and billy for me to like a country blue grass artist that plays what he loves to play you are unique and i like you were like brothers from a diffrent mother lol love you billy jimmy belken is my dad
I remember seeing your father, Jimmy Belken, playing fiddle in the band. I used to know the names of all of Merle's band members. Now, Billy Strings has just enough guys for me to remember.
Yup, I picked the right psychedelic guitarist to listen to.
The only reason I watched/thumbs up this vid is because of Billy. I Zero use for the aloof arrogant Nick Forster.
No way I'm 20 mins from Morehead
