There is something quite soothing about Becky's voice and it particularly suits Shenandoah and , with the music from the group, it results a in quiet and wistful version of this favourite number that harks back to earlier centuries when the West was being settled.
This is a very beautiful version, also agood guitar solo.. I learned to know this song by the Petersen family. They use to start all their concerts with this song .But your version with a slight different melody and without the banjo is also amazing. Greatings from Germany
I have to watch your beautiful video every week at least twice. It is so special, these lovely nature shots, panning above the creek, snow bank, tree tops. The personnal: the sneaking smile during Becky's vocals, the fiddler's eyebrows' dancing off his strings, the tapping feet. More, please!
That's beautiful. such perfection. Thank you so much. I love simplicity like that and soft voices and gentle violin. God Bless you all, wonderful, thank you !
Sometimes the TH-cam recommendations produce lovely well-hidden gems and this is absolutely one of those times. What a gift to hear one of my favourite songs so beautifully performed 🎶 All these amazing voices and instruments are blending so splendidly together in harmony, in a very pure, simple and authentic way. And for me, that's a great compliment 😀 Thank you very much for this moment of pure enjoyment ! And please keep singing, the world definitely needs your music in it 🌎🎶🎵😀
Most excellent..... It called to mind many a scene from my walk on the Appalachian Trail back in 99. I was Johnny Reb, the Journeyman for Jesus. And His spirit sailed me along just like your song. Took 89 verses though. Godspeed pilgrims.
Prince Edward Island , Canada, would like to have you guys if your interested! Lots of east coast love here it sounds amazing. Have a good show, and lobsters. Let me know.
Its a national park eh .. cool. Shenandoah National Park extends along the Blue Ridge Mountains in the U.S. state of Virginia. The Skyline Drive runs its length, and a vast network of trails includes a section of the long-distance Appalachian Trail.
I've always argued that Shenandoah can be performed in a faster tempo than this song is usually played. Your performance is a perfect example of this. Congrats! Beautiful voices and sounds, and excellent harmonies. And beautiful setting of the video. Greetings from Italy!!
My wife of 48 years loved to play music and listen to music that touched her soul. She is now with our god and the glorious music of heaven is hers now. Your music is music that is soul inspiring here on this earth
Yep, it's a U-bass (made by Kala). It's a fairly new invention. It has the body of a baritone ukulele but super thick rubber-like strings. It's too quiet to hear on it's own but with an amp it's sounds great, almost similar to an upright in tone. Super portable and easy to play.
@@paulsoderquist4788 Thanks Paul. Right now I'm learning harp, but bought a Ukelele recently (kohala, at the thrift store!) and want to learn this on my guitar too. It is a lovely, haunting song.
Terrific harmonies. And they used a studio track so you can really hear everything. Bassist needs a real bass though. Like they filmed this is winter, coatless at that?!
"Shenandoah" was a riverman's song and then sailor's song. It went through numerous changes and versions over the years and centuries, so there are no set lyrics.

Thanks so much!❤❤❤
Love your comment, thanks!
I was looking for folk music, and came across this video by accident.
Well done!
I've played this about ten times straight, and it puts a lump in my throat every time. So hauntingly beautiful...
Glad you like it! ❤

Beautiful video. The Shenandoah river flows into the Shenandoah valley.
We would love to see the Shenandoah River someday!
Thanks for this calm, peaceful music
Merci from France 😊👌

Bien belle interprétation ! Merci. 👏
Merci à vous 😊
Beautiful song! I tried to play along on harmonica, will definitely learn this one! What is the small guitar? Looks like a ukelele!
Yep, it's a U-bass (made by Kala). It's a fairly new invention. It has the body of a baritone ukulele but super thick rubber-like strings. It's too quiet to hear on it's own but with an amp it's sounds great, almost similar to an upright in tone. Super portable and easy to play.

We're using a Ubass. It was really cold! 😬

Slow it down!!!
It’s like your in a hurry to get it out of the way. 😂
We love playing songs fast. :)
Needs to be slower.
.
PLEASE!! Could the men smile. Act as if your enjoying playing for an audience. If you're just too good for us, well, hell, we're too good for you.
😄 Thanks for the feedback.
If only they had used the real lyrics
"Shenandoah" was a riverman's song and then sailor's song. It went through numerous changes and versions over the years and centuries, so there are no set lyrics.
@@canyoneeringqueen Right you are. Many traditional folk songs have alternative lyrics. It’s nothing to get worked up about. 😊
