Just one last word about this performance for me. It's only getting better folks...this band is a shooting star. We are witnessing the rise of a band that eclipses some of the finest progressive bluegrass work we have ever heard. These boys are working there ass off. It's shows. Hit every show you can, you will thank me later.
@@chilson.fillips Yep - Brooklyn Bowl in December was the breaking point moment. Billy Strings is launching with all rockets firing! Bluegrass is not going to be the same! Bigger than "Oh Borther Where art though" by an order of magnitude.
@@chilson.fillips 2020 turned out to be a shit show, didn't it. Lucky me, I was on the rail in front of Billy for the very last show they played before the shut down. I even managed to get the set list and have it autographed by the whole band and part of the crew. Bad ass show but sucks that it was the last. Hope we get to see them again soon.
Billy deserves everything coming. Heard a got a Grammy. Heard the 🍕 stains are back. Word has it he's now doing stuff with dangerous rappers, punky antiwarriors and other multiculturalismaniacs. So glad he didn't implode. I blame his parents, Martin guitars, bluegrass, death and black metal, incredible intelligence, an open soul, lots of drugs and one midnight deal with a guy on a crossroads in North Carolina that said "I'll make you a ☆, but every time you solo, you must wear all the turmoil and tinfoil upon your pretty face." 🙃😘 Big love from an old fan! This performance 🎭 is magnificent.

For some reason I would always past Billy Strings up till one day I decided to give a lisen. Now, feel kind stupid for passing him by. His musicianship speaks for itself.
@Mike Bastiat that's too bad, at least then you'd be becoming SOMETHING. As it stands you appear to be completely useless. But, keep your head up even worthless trolls can experience joy. Troll on, tool.
Joe Polizzi And tonight they just did and are coming back in sept...thanks, ironworks...he was just other worldly in talent and jam...a reincarnation of Jerry ...
Dear Joe Polizzi, I believe your increasing your good health 😎 ... I’m with you all the way. Billy’s nimble fret work is “chin-to-chest” amazing. Be Well 👍 Michael
Sitting under my tin roof back porch after a thunderstorm and when the boys finished "I'm Still Here" the rain on the roof sounded like an audience clapping. I love this band. It soothes my soul.
Now in 2022 and Billy Strings and Band of Strings is taking names kicking ass. I'm going to Ireland, got lucky and wicked sweet fan sold me his ticket.. I'm hoping can get couple more for my cousins in Ireland too they are all sold out too... 💚👁️💚👣🎵🎶🎻🩰🎧🎤🎸🪕❤️✌️🩰💸💚🇮🇪
I wasn’t expecting to see different men playing mandolin and bass with Billy. I thought once he formed the quartet it was always Billy, Billy, Royal and Jerrod. Great performance!
Drew Matlitch shreds on mandolin. Billy Strings Vocals and guitar are outstanding. A group of super talented musicians who are the most innovative new grass players these days.
Love, love, love Billy and the Boys - all are extremely talented- I never listened bluegrass until I heard Billy Strings - now that's all I listen to. In addition to being a great talent he shares every concert and promo gig he does on TH-cam. As soon as I think Ive watched all his videos 5 more pop up. I can't get enough!!!!!!
I have really enjoyed each time I have seen you can't wait to see you face to face I might be far back from you but I love you an I really mean that I feel your soul from day one love always your fan Sunshine Harris ❤
Billy and the boys are The Bidness! Love the "intimate" setting and excellent audio. Hope the recognition comes for Billy and perhaps the talented gents around him will provide the right chemistry for him to grow and polish his off-the-charts talent. Keep bringin' it guys!
Billy is proof that country doesnt only thrive in the south...that boyz got more soul than any southern blue grass/country/rockabilly singer/guitar player out there...how bout that? And a michigander to top it off...Hot damn son you got some fuckin skills!
The dust in a baggie song to me is the best one. It has a lot of meaning these days people dropping Dead all over.. prisons are full of addicts and mentally ill mostly. It's just plan a great song. And a great story that I think must mean something to them. It almost got me. Music can heal addiction. I hope Billy does not go the Wayward way because that's way too much talent to lose.
Pssssst. Right now I'd rather be at an ISD show than seeing Billy who I love. Why? The moron factor. The metal factor. The fckheads who can't handle their drugs. End of story.
Ha I’m just hearing this gig for the first time in 24 and once he said they opened for someone I laughed and tried to think of a band today that wouldn’t open for them They are the pinnacle of music in 2024

I see your comment was one year ago.... time has proved you correct sir! He melted my face last weekend.
SO TRUE , I TURNED ON TO THEM 3 MONTHS AGO
Nailed it!! 2020 belongs to Billy and the Boys!! The pretty much owned 2019 as well.

Billy Strings and his Band are fire! Best thing in bluegrass right now without question!
Joe Bartletti thanks bud!
BT keep laying down those sweet beats bro! Looking forward to meeting you this summer along the way.
Joe Bartletti you don't know real bluegrass friend
Care to enlighten us, friend? Or is a passive-aggressive drive by all you'd care to contribute from your vast database?
Man, any world where Billy Strings isn't considered real bluegrass isn't a world I want to live in.

Your welcome! Rage the Strings, Billy that is!
Whoa!! That Old microphone story blew me away!! Great show guys. /Chris, Sweden
What is listed as Cocaine Blues is actually, "Tell It To Me"
Guessing he went with the title Billy gave it when he started playing
I
I Am from MARS. You LEARN SOMEthing NEW everyDAY is TRUE. Strength! GODspeed!
For some reason I would always past Billy Strings up till one day I decided to give a lisen. Now, feel kind stupid for passing him by. His musicianship speaks for itself.
Every time a Billy Strings, an Angel gets his Wings.
Haha haha haha ...ya buddy!!!
I love the fact that in every live version the tempo, arrangements and solos are different. That's real music and talent
Just seen em last night..Indy..THEY ARE BLASTING THRU ANOTHER DIMENSION
That prevents boredom and burnout while maintaining control
I can't but imagine Doc, Merle and Rick Watson's souls smiling while watching this guy playing and singing with his band.
There's nothing more to add.
Been on a strings binge since first hearing him about a week ago. Outstanding musician
Same.
@Mike Bastiat fact has it trollboi mike bastiat is a tool.

My total favorite new artist!! The band he has now is perfect! Crazy cool.
I've watched this an unhealthy amount of times.... all incredible musicians! You guys should play a show in Rochester/Buffalo!

4つの楽器で醸し出す音の世界は、全て神❤️がかり‼️ブルーグラスの真髄ですね☺️
Sitting under my tin roof back porch after a thunderstorm and when the boys finished "I'm Still Here" the rain on the roof sounded like an audience clapping. I love this band. It soothes my soul.
Damn fine music.
The mandolin solo's are outstanding!
Yep... Drew is presently out of the band, but yeah, he's excellent, and probably has the best "mando chop" rhythm i've ever heard.
@@KennethWilliamElkington Jarrod Walker ain't too shabby either.
@@KennethWilliamElkington it must have been a short break as he was there touring in 2019 and standard now
@@genuineimpulse9134 Nope, Jarrod is Billy's mando player full time. Drew is working with the Gine Furtado project.
This kid and his band are the real deal. Insane.
Haven't seen anything this good since the Tony Rice Unit.
or more recently, the Infamous Stringdusters
I can see that my data will be getting ate up quite a bit listening to this. There’s not a bad musical moment on it!
This kids got so much soul it's called soul country music.....great band too
Reminds me of an Allman's jam ...
*Almonds
Just got my Billy Strings T-shirt today. Proud to sport an incredible artist's merch!
Now in 2022 and Billy Strings and Band of Strings is taking names kicking ass. I'm going to Ireland, got lucky and wicked sweet fan sold me his ticket.. I'm hoping can get couple more for my cousins in Ireland too they are all sold out too... 💚👁️💚👣🎵🎶🎻🩰🎧🎤🎸🪕❤️✌️🩰💸💚🇮🇪
Wow. These guys are amazing. Great vocals and tight clean musicianship.
Glad i found them!
Check out Billy Strings & Don Julin 'Meet me at the creek'
blew me away :)
Great with headphones - really brings out the bass'st in them.
I wasn’t expecting to see different men playing mandolin and bass with Billy. I thought once he formed the quartet it was always Billy, Billy, Royal and Jerrod. Great performance!
A lot of talent right there. Way more than we hear on most radio stations and television today.
One of yalls best sets i think. Top 3 for sure and I've watched dozens
lots of love for billy, keep doing what your doing man :)

Watching and listening on a beautiful snowy February morning in Michigan. Thanks for being there for all of us Billy and Gang.
Thanks for tuning in!!
he’s such a youngster here
what a talent 🩵🤍
Not only is this band simply amazing but their instruments and playing is just so damn good. They get it.
these guys are amazing hard working guys.. playing traditional blue grass . So much talent
you know it's real bluegrass when one of the guys shouts out his masonry buddies. legit
Fun fact: the cameraman’s heart was once broken by a mandolin player... he’s ignored them ever since.
I noticed that. I was wondering what was going on there.lol
No, the cameraman just doesn’t know the difference between a mandolin player and a bass player.
@@tntkop guess I shoulda used sarcasm font…
@@zac3392 😂 I knew that. 😂
I love the old music 🎶 and love it so much 💕 it was the first music I heard when I got my ears when I was seven years. I love music 🎶
Love to you and your band Billy!
Love, love, love Billy and the Boys - all are extremely talented- I never listened bluegrass until I heard Billy Strings - now that's all I listen to.

Pure joy watching this as the dawn is breaking.
Love I'm still here 💞
Saw them at the homeless benefit for their homecoming the other night. Awesome show, with the Tuttles playing cameos. Sold out show!
Did u have to pinch yourself???
I have really enjoyed each time I have seen you can't wait to see you face to face I might be far back from you but I love you an I really mean that I feel your soul from day one love always your fan Sunshine Harris ❤
Feeling the guitar 👍👍👍👍👍👍😁
Absolutely amazing.
ABSOLUTELY!!!!
Saw them in Nashville (RRE) a few weeks back and have been gorging on this session ever since.
Love you, Mr. Strings.
Billy and the boys are The Bidness! Love the "intimate" setting and excellent audio. Hope the recognition comes for Billy and perhaps the talented gents around him will provide the right chemistry for him to grow and polish his off-the-charts talent. Keep bringin' it guys!
I was shouting for you Billy listening to this .
Yeah!!! Portland Oregon.🦫
guys, it's too good, very good!!! I've never seen anything like it!!!
It never goes down
It's pure bad ass! Super talented crew. The songs are all unique. Billy Strings is keeping it alive!
Feeling that Bangor bless
that little Maggie note hold at the beginning was gold. Love you Billy
We are so excited to get to see you play on New years eve this year in Grand Rapids MI.
Billy is proof that country doesnt only thrive in the south...that boyz got more soul than any southern blue grass/country/rockabilly singer/guitar player out there...how bout that? And a michigander to top it off...Hot damn son you got some fuckin skills!
You're right. Even the UP is just southern Canada.
Not sure im following you there AVL 😐
Michigan is the south of the north.... or something like that.
The vintage RCA mic has a great sound. Loveit
You put your soul in that guitar
You go Boy!!!
Love these guys. Pure gold.
Yeah I'm listening you guys rock outstanding I love it
Just to expand on Joe's post ......this band is on the lip of greatness ...

Check out spinning by Billy strings.
I LOVE ASHEVILLE! I love me some big ol Titschville too...
Great Job... Keep Us Happy/Play On
Keeping it real
Modern, vibrating , beautiful !!! I'm happy to know their music !!!
I think Billy Strings is gonna be around a long time... Turmoil and Tinfoil a modern classic
Just wish I could listen to it for the first time one more time
insanely good! thanks.
awesome as always - keep it up.
Opening for the Stringdusters? Well who has the sold out tour now?
....big smiles
Pssssst. Right now I'd rather be at an ISD show than seeing Billy who I love. Why? The moron factor. The metal factor. The fckheads who can't handle their drugs.
End of story.
Ha I’m just hearing this gig for the first time in 24 and once he said they opened for someone I laughed and tried to think of a band today that wouldn’t open for them They are the pinnacle of music in 2024
The future of blue grass is here. :)
LEGENDARY
Every now and then I get the feeling I'm watching Jaco Pastorius reincarnated as a bluegrass prodigy.
On dust in a baggie, strings and the mando player were really tearing it up, like 6th gear right off the jump.
Thanks !!:)
Amazing ..
Love ya Billy Strings
WOW!
Just Wow gentlemen very nice , hope you may come to Ottawa Canada some day ,thanks for the nice music .
Incredible,
Incredible. W il bluegrass
fantastico bluegrass, diferente, nuevo y electrizante, Billy String os felicito Hurra
Love that song.
I went to a rave, on Halloween in this very Church. The legitimacy of this setlist and location can not be rivaled: imho.
HAHAHA "I wonder if my voice sounds all old timey on this mic" you crack me p man.
I thought this guy was from the south but when I looked into him, he's from up HERE where I live!
This video needed a reverse cut from the control room with ambient audio and one of the sound tech' saying; "Holy shit"
Awesome as hell
awesome , and coming to portland!
You have to remember who learned it from... His Dad and growing up with the best I ears, hands, heart...
Keep it from the ❤
Your blessed
more mandolin please
Red apple beer with sliced green apples n ice...but tangerines in pear juice with white wine
Awesome
Wheel Re-invented.
i'm a troll when i'm not playing in the snow I like to listen to Billy Strings
I will with love
I would really like to to hear mas mandolin in the mix
This set is smoking hot.
Love me some billygrass
