Seriously the guys amazing. I used to think I was a guitar player until I started listening to guys like Bryan Sutton. Now I just consider myself a guitar owner.
608K views... I'm pretty sure at least 250K of those are from me watching this video over and over and over. Billy has to be one of the most captivating performers of his generation among any genre and this video shows why. So great, so much fun, so much enthusiasm and respect among the musicians. Mighty fine, indeed.
Almost all of the other views are mine! I had the immense pleasure of seeing him play live in Manchester, England at the end of last year. It was an absolutely spectacular gig!
@@babswright2664 Agreed. Billy is a class act. The most ridiculous thing in the world is how some of these "Bluegrass purists" talk shit about him for being a showboat. It has to be jealousy, that's the only explanation I can think of. I for one am thankful we have Billy to carry the torch for the future generation of flatpickers, we're truly lucky.
@@heathkish6901 he is a performer with confidence and I wish him all the success he deserves. I agree jealousy brings out the worst in people. If you watch his interviews you will understand how humble Billy is. I can’t get enough of him I wish I still lived in the States so I could see him live.
@@babswright2664 I couldn't have said it better myself. My father-in-law is in a bluegrass band, and Billy got on stage with them at this festival they played. They all said he was just the nicest guy. I'll post the link if I can find the video! Also, don't feel bad. I live in America and I still haven't seen him live.
a friend says... the best camera is the one in your hand ✋...I am a lifelong photographer who uses his phone for all of it now... it's like having a really really good camera... for a few... comfortable monthly payments... no worries
The key to being this caliber, is absolutely being the music. These guys are their own frequency. They have fun with it every single note, measure and riff they play. I haven't heard one song from Billy that hasn't blown me away in some form or another.
Simply amazing! And I’m a die hard death metal musician. Stage presence, undeniable talent, and passion. Flawless performance every time I watch these guys. And Billy in my opinion is the Stevie Ray Vaughn, Darrell Abbot, Chuck Berry....of bluegrass! I’m sure it’s an October 3rd thing. Favorite song by Billy is Taking Water. Stay humble turbo flat picker!
First time I played this for my then 12 y/o he said 'Sounds like they're having a conversation.' I was 'THEY ARE' Proud momma moment..raising 'em right!
Killer playing and singing there. I love where he quotes Big Sandy at 5:51 and then Sutton kicks the same quote back to him, only with harmony. Those guys both know how to listen.
Man, I havent kept up with the bluegrass scene real closely for a couple years. I start digging around looking for something new to listen to and find this kid. I dont give a damn if hes cocky. That boy is the total package. And playing classics without some " new " BS twist. Not that I dont like the new stuff ...I do. But a kid who actually knows and plays the classics and loves doing it???!! Good stuff.
Ramrod Rymensnyder Billy is not cocky at all, he comes off that way on stage. If you ever meet him like I did in Birmingham you will know what I mean. He is a jolly, humble, good fellow!😋 David Barr
Pinrod93 - Yeah, I certainly dont have any reason to think hes cocky, other than the negative comments below. Its definitely nice to see a youngster playing classic bluegrass and doing it like a boss. That boy can damn sure burn the strings up
you might enjoy this guitar teacher reaction and teach of Billy Strings. Great enthusiasm and helped me to understand just how complex and layered and how it all comes together
I've heard of Billy Strings and knew he was good but yesterday and today I have been watching many of his videos and have to say he is extremely good. One of the best of all time, even at his young age.
@@buddythatcher5421 what he has some many people wouldn't achieve even if they play guitar everyday. Takes soul and hardwork. Break down some of his concerts how he progresses the songs uniquely throughout as you go on the journey. Not everyone can feel that. Even if you play forever. He has it. Many don't.
I've always said "bluegrass is to country what metal is to rock and roll", to me Billy Strings solidifies my definition. I'm lucky that I love both metal and bluegrass, no damned lucky to be alive at the right time to hear Billy Strings perform. Could one imagine how sorrowful life would be if had never experienced Bill Strings?
This is the ideal picker combination. Brian Sutton and Billy Strings. Two players of enormous talent playing side by side. I have been waiting to see this pairing!
I just started hearing this Billy Strings fella just recently ... Where did this guy come out from !! Incredible talent. Like Earl Scruggs, Flats and Chet Atkins all rolled into one !! Love this guy !!! Real genuine talent !!
First heard the Outlaws do this number on one of their righteous southern rock albums - then Tony Rice did a version and now this wow ...... love these two cats playing together - sweet! That break around the 7 minute mark is just ridiculous!
It is so lucky that someone captured this amazing number on video. As of 10/28/2018 there were 32 losers who gave a thumbs down to this video -- versus 893 who were intelligent enough to give thumbs up! Great video.
Man, I was there for this and it was incredible. I think what makes it so special is that Billy is just throwing out everything he has got and completely trusts that Bryan Sutton is going to toss it right back to him. It elevates them both.
@@sandyamos2631 which makes it even more amazing he wasn't born with inherit talent. He developed it. To me that is far more impressive. Look at Wolf Van Halen. Born with it all can't play worth a dime. Needs the name to get anywhere. Billy is raw.
It's unfathomable how much chutzpah it takes in the ultra-traditional world of bluegrass to call yourself "Billy Strings". You better be fucking _good_!!! And he sure is. Good mother of God is Brian Sutton stellar though. I mean he's keeping up with Billy without even trying and that's just an impossibility
Billy was artist at large at Grey Fox 2019. I was a volunteer with backstage pass. I got to see UP CLOSE that Billy is a music geek, totally tripping on Del McCoury and the Earls of Leicester, just like everybody else. He played with dang near every act on the bill, not showing off, but adding to each group. Props. I hope he I'm listening 20 years from now.
Allan Levy that’s what you get for growing up in the city lol but I myself did the same thing I didn’t start investigating other music genres until I heard Gerry Garcia’s album Old and In the way after that I figured if the Grateful Dead dig bluegrass it might be worth taking a look at
@@randyscott9034 lol Long island is not the City, I grew up on Long Island too. Its a suburb of the city. It's 20-80 miles from the city depending on where you live.
I see Billy playing with everyone in music business.he always can play the style he has to in a bluegrass way.I see him trading licks with all the rockers and he can play their style but none play his style at all.except Molly Tuttle see plays and trades licks with Billy,he looks like he struggling to play and she just stands there playing looking out at audience like she's on a break instead of taking a break.Molly is as good or better than most in her field,but like all music no room for women in any kind of music.woman like Allison Krause,Allison Brown,Molly have changed that in bluegrass but it's been along time,just ask Rhonda Vincent who's not gone unrecognized but should have had alot more recognition, just sayin!
Sutton doesn't look too shabby playing alongside Billy Strings. Speaking as a 70 year-old, we may as well face it, Strings is in the process of carving out a universe of his own.
I do believe that that vintage 1948 Martin D-28 that Sutton is playing there is now being played by Billy Strings. That's the level of respect between a former Bluegrass Guitar Player of the Year and a future one. In fact, Billy is nominated for that award this year and may win it.
How the hell they survived that dueling solo battle and fell back into the song at the end I don't know but it seems extra terrestrial other worldly type of shit that that went off without a hitch
Well put Bob..... absolutely one of the best live performance's I've ever seen. These guys are at the top of their game. Some of the the cleanest guitar playing well beyond the speed limit.....
Billy has the stage presence of Thile. He's breaking ground much like NGR did back in the early 70's. Love his traditional and new styles. He has a future for sure.
I always thought MerleFest ‘92 with Tony Rice’s crew was the final word on Freeborn Man. Clearly, and delightfully, I was wrong. There ain’t no bs with BS! The real deal
I don't dig country much but I dig this . This guy is a guitar playin he'd cuttin machine the likes I have only seen since the Dark lord Steve vai or EVH . I hope this Kidd gets all he deserves .
After listening to this song for years, the meaning of the line, " I always loved the girl next door, but any place is home" hit me. LOL. This is my absolute most favorite performance by him!!! HOT!!!!😍😍😍😍
I have replayed this intro like 30 times in a row--i love how brian and billy are feeling each other out in the beginning, they start the song and they are clearly having fun. billy hits that bend at 31 seconds and brian fuckin SWOONS look at him lol. probly both at the stage presense and musicianship. Billy is hamming it up playing a fill ends it on some random harmonic 7th note or chord---Brian laughs because it doesnt seem like he was expecting it and he was having a blast up there. hearing brian laugh makes billy laugh too--brian laughs more, billy failing laughs, the crowd laughs, i laugh, you guys laugh, and the magic is carried throughout the entire song. THAT is chemistry on stage.
6:10 - heavy metal Billy. I went to college (in the 70s) with guys who had that same look in their eyes that Billy F. gets when he's taking his breaks on the banjo. Like, 'We gonna do this or not, dude?'
I can't imagine a more terror inducing scenario than being on stage with these guys and they turn to you for a solo.
😂😂😂
I take classes with Bryan, and I feel the exact same way. Ive had nightmares about it
Yes! Lol
👍
I WOULD PASS OUT , NO WAY
I get the feeling Billy doesn’t trust his own capability
Bryan Sutton plays that like he's walking down the street. So perfectly effortless!
He's got that Tony Rice swagger about him. Effortless is an understatement.
Seriously the guys amazing. I used to think I was a guitar player until I started listening to guys like Bryan Sutton. Now I just consider myself a guitar owner.
Bryan Sutton: 10 times IBMA World Champion Bluegrass Guitar Player. A stunningly talented multi-instrumentalist!

Almost all of the other views are mine! I had the immense pleasure of seeing him play live in Manchester, England at the end of last year. It was an absolutely spectacular gig!
Good ole Tony Rice approves from heaven. RIP to the REAL Freeborn Man. :(
I love how billy always turns to whoever is soloing and really takes in their performance. True master of his craft
Shows great respect for his band.

I’ve seen you channel before, they need to put a check mark by you so people know your a channel

No matter what video I watch with billy I’m smiling ear to ear within minutes if not seconds.
I'll even let out the occasional hoot sometimes my face just can't contain the smile

said his metal band taught him how to perform
I would agree
Amazing seeing all the love for this... got lucky and caught a pretty magical moment here. I still get the chills every time I watch this!
First time I played this for my then 12 y/o he said 'Sounds like they're having a conversation.'
I was 'THEY ARE'
Proud momma moment..raising 'em right!
Killer playing and singing there. I love where he quotes Big Sandy at 5:51 and then Sutton kicks the same quote back to him, only with harmony. Those guys both know how to listen.
Well said. You know how to listen too my friend.
Exactly, that harmonic answer sent shivers down my spine.
Always appreciate it when I can feel past artists through present ones in live performance, and we're all acknowledging the nod!
Magical.
I was hypnotized. You can see that he loves what he does. I'm a fan.

Billy just likes to smell some fun powder before a big performance. It's called entertainment
All five are fantastic musicians. Billy will be referred to as legend long after we're gone.
Oh. My. Gosh. So good. That conversation with the two guitars at the 5 minute mark is outstanding.
Cams Campbell crazy echoing 👍
Wow. Not just Billy Strings, but EVERYBODY playing here. Just wow!
Having a fire extinguisher is a mandatory safety precaution when Bryan Sutton has a guitar in his hands.
I've heard of Billy Strings and knew he was good but yesterday and today I have been watching many of his videos and have to say he is extremely good. One of the best of all time, even at his young age.
Barring a side trip down into alcoholism or drug addiction, Billy has nowhere to go but up!
I hope he avoids that side road. He seems like an amazing and well brought up lad.
He sure loves his weed. Has a new pipe almost every week on IG
That may be the greatest live performance I've ever seen. In ANY genre!
This kid is crazy good! What a gift.
I get what you are saying but that kind of talent is earned through many hours of practice. It is not given.

Those are rookie numbers

Freaking Incredible! Never heard bluegrass? Now you're an instant fan!
I see the Government Mule flight cases on stage. Warren Haynes is like, "Dammit! Where do they find these guys?"
sickb2200 exactly
My new FAVORITE.... #billystrings
that young dude is awsume. so what if he is enjoying himself.
Well stated. A joy to watch him emerge and progress.
That's what you're supposed to do.
Yas, he iz prety awsume, so iz speling
I was along the fence near the vip side. Sweet footage brother. Thank you!
Great version! Super talent right there. Tony Rice signed my workhorse 12 string. I think I'm after a new signature seeing this... What a future!
Dudes had a full blown conversation with their guitars
It is so lucky that someone captured this amazing number on video. As of 10/28/2018 there were 32 losers who gave a thumbs down to this video -- versus 893 who were intelligent enough to give thumbs up! Great video.
Awesome a young guy carrying on the tradition and what a amazing picker
There's a little bit of hatin' in the comments, but that was tasty as grandma's fried chicken. Buy the new record people!
I have deep sympathy for those guitar strings, while tending to great joy in my heart !! Thanks for posting, unbelievable.
Ernie lost his Balls.
Man, I was there for this and it was incredible.
I think what makes it so special is that Billy is just throwing out everything he has got and completely trusts that Bryan Sutton is going to toss it right back to him. It elevates them both.
I have a memory of this being on the Patomac stage...
@@doyleable91 The Potomac Stage set was incredible that year too.
Sutton rarely makes a mistake. He's like a machine.
Of the 1.2K plays...I think 1k of them are from me!
That kind of talent isn't born everyday! I am so glad that I found your music. You bring me joy. Thanks for sharing your talent. I love your dad!
His real dad or stepfather? I thought his real father wasn't a musician but his stepfather is a well known flatpicker
@@shreddykrueger3776 His step dad but, he calls him dad.

Both great players, but that Martin sounds so much better than whatever that is Billy is playing. Not even close.

Good mother of God is Brian Sutton stellar though. I mean he's keeping up with Billy without even trying and that's just an impossibility
That's the kind of energy I'm looking for in a live performance. Congratulations on the recognition Billy Strings.
Billy is very talented, singing and picking and having fun. More notes from Bryan and Billy than any guitar duet I have ever heard :)
WOW Amazing. Thank you so much for filming this.

Government mule decided not to even come out after this.... lol
Imagine how good Billy's going to be when he grows up!!
Banjo player is insanely good. Holy shit. Bryan Sutton ain't bad. ; )
This is Billy Strings regular band with Sutton sitting in for this tune.
I grew up on pop music on Long Island in the 60's. A wasted life. I'll try catching up a little in my remaining years.

Bryan Sutton is the only picker I've seen that keep up with Billy
Molly gives him a solid run
5:30 Billy runs out of notes for the lick and the bass player jumps in to finish the rest of the lick's melody for him. Crazy
This is one of my favorite performances! Billy kills it and those vocals are just as strong as his fascinating pickin!!!
Billy plays free progressive. I like it.
I think this is the first time I've ever seen a guitarist play with Bryan Sutton and not look shabby in comparison.
:Not look shabby"? How 'bout more than hold his own? Billy is a monster picker... period.
Sutton doesn't look too shabby playing alongside Billy Strings. Speaking as a 70 year-old, we may as well face it, Strings is in the process of carving out a universe of his own.

My mind is absolutely blown. That banjoist looked scared. This guy is a monster.
He's got a degree from Berklee College of Music in Boston so he ain't skeered!
And then 9 months later, 2 baby guitars were born.
True story.
2017 Billy was really at the height of his powers with that Thompson hog. He's amazing now too but doesn't show off quite as much :)
I’ve noticed the same
He has great talent and enjoys it.
Damn he’s amazing!!!
Billy puts the FUN back into music - this kind of music!
Well, my day is immediately better after watching that!! Two phenomenal flat-pickers in action!!
How the hell they survived that dueling solo battle and fell back into the song at the end I don't know but it seems extra terrestrial other worldly type of shit that that went off without a hitch
Well put Bob..... absolutely one of the best live performance's I've ever seen. These guys are at the top of their game. Some of the the cleanest guitar playing well beyond the speed limit.....
Billy has the stage presence of Thile. He's breaking ground much like NGR did back in the early 70's. Love his traditional and new styles. He has a future for sure.
That’s a mighty fine pickin and a singin ’ !!
Great entertainer for sure and such a phenom picker. The only version I enjoy as much as this is from another shredder.....Junior Brown.
So this is the most sexy and exciting Billy Strings I’ve ever seen? What year was this?
I always thought MerleFest ‘92 with Tony Rice’s crew was the final word on Freeborn Man. Clearly, and delightfully, I was wrong. There ain’t no bs with BS! The real deal
I don't dig country much but I dig this . This guy is a guitar playin he'd cuttin machine the likes I have only seen since the Dark lord Steve vai or EVH . I hope this Kidd gets all he deserves .
Billy sure is a great talent, young , enthusiastic and eager, but he sure still learn a thing or two from the great Bryan Sutton
How did he get that good !?!?!?!? Practice Practice Practice
After listening to this song for years, the meaning of the line, " I always loved the girl next door, but any place is home" hit me. LOL. This is my absolute most favorite performance by him!!! HOT!!!!😍😍😍😍
WARNING: This video is highly addictive.
SON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have replayed this intro like 30 times in a row--i love how brian and billy are feeling each other out in the beginning, they start the song and they are clearly having fun. billy hits that bend at 31 seconds and brian fuckin SWOONS look at him lol. probly both at the stage presense and musicianship. Billy is hamming it up playing a fill ends it on some random harmonic 7th note or chord---Brian laughs because it doesnt seem like he was expecting it and he was having a blast up there. hearing brian laugh makes billy laugh too--brian laughs more, billy failing laughs, the crowd laughs, i laugh, you guys laugh, and the magic is carried throughout the entire song. THAT is chemistry on stage.
I officially give up
Dang! These guys can play.
The best in this clip is when Billy laugh's cuz he got Bryan on stage,and Bryan smiles back at him. Pure music joy ♩
and then Bryan hardly gets to play..lol
That is the jam i want on my scones forever.
I must have been standing right next to you when you filmed this!! Excellent!
Fairgrounds?
Insane level ! Thanks 🙏
That flat picking at the beginning is way too damn good. Billy is the man!
6:10 - heavy metal Billy. I went to college (in the 70s) with guys who had that same look in their eyes that Billy F. gets when he's taking his breaks on the banjo. Like, 'We gonna do this or not, dude?'

What a fabulous performance and great guitar battle Talents !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That ain’t natural.
Man, I really wanna hate this little hippy punk, but his skills are undeniable. Good job kid
Is there anything they didn't play on those flat tops!?
Billy is the best guitarist on the planet. How he got that good at his age really makes you wonder.
this thing called practice...
@@mjq21xb we could all practice all day long for years... some people are just made for certain things, this kid's a perfect example.
His dad was a musician and got him playing from age 3. But he must of played for hours and hours every single day, to get this good. Impressive
@@pv3Hpv3p laws of brainjo
Billy strings I’d say so
Bluegrass you hetcha play it boys
Hotter than a Midwest Prairie Fire!
"Hotter than socks on a Jersey Giant." Wait...Tyler Childers has that one wrapped up with a purdy bow on it. So photo finish!
Hotter than a pawn shop DVD player! Smoking
All I can say is Wow!
