- musicfog.com/ Slaid Cleaves performs a song that he and Rod Picott wrote together. This video was filmed during the 2011 Cherokee Creek Music Festival in Texas.
Why isn't this guy famous? Better than 99.9% of what I hear on the radio.
morleybolero He is buddy
"Sheeple?" Speak for yourself, New Jersey Militia.
One of those great singer/song writers from Austin. A song that brings tears.
Hey! He's FROM Maine. :) Well, he was. I used to watch him play from about age 17. In Austin for the last 25 years or so.
He has never recorded a song I didn't like.
I'm Italian, and grew up in an industrial town in the north.
Back in the 90s, it was flourishing, Italy was the second economy of Europe.
Now, 90% of those industries closed down, and the remaining few are going to do the same the moment the debts become unbearable.
Town is now inhabited mostly by old people who like to sit down and remember the old days, same way as Slaid Cleaves is singing.
Young ones and relatively young ones like me flew away, in the search of something that isn't even clear what it is.
Even though we are distant in terms of geography, we are very similar in our recent history.
Middle class Americans and Middle class Italians.. Both victims of unregulated capitalism.
A big hug to you all!
Very powerful song. Lots of love and respect to my northern brothers who've lost jobs in factories in cities like Buffalo, Pittsburgh, Cleveland, Detroit and St. Louis. America's sweat and blood.
But y'all keep voting democrat
@@mikiecope Cuz the republicans are scummy and racist as hell
I'm from Flint Michigan, I've lived every word of what he's singing. I've watched my home crumble and decay to the point where it's almost unrecognizable. Ternstedt, Buick City, Fisher body, Chevy in the hole, Delco, Delphi.. we built Chevelles, we built Camaros, we built Park Avenue Ultras and a whole host of legendary vehicles. Now our Legacy is poison water, murder, sex trafficking, slavery, political scandal and no sign of hope..
I'm sorry man. Come on down to Texas. We got a little bit of room left...but not in Houston.
A voice for the working man. Respect from the UK.
I love this guy... Just got turned onto him a few weeks ago, now i cant stop listening. Its like when i first heard Townes van Zandt... Like you never get enough. Slaid actually answers emails and tweets. Awesome guy!
Great songs, I remember when I first heard Townes van Zant also, HuracaneMitch got me turned on to Slaid Cleaves, can't get enough of his music.
You're brilliant, the spokesman for this generation. Keep writing beautiful music to tell our story.
Parker, Agree Great songwriter right there with Woody Guthrie, Pete Seeger, and John Prine!
An absolutely beautiful song and yet so simply said
A true genius. His music is so simple, but so powerful.
The song reflects our times, inequality and downfall of the middleclass. Love this song
"No one remembers your name just for working hard"🎯
Slaid Cleaves has written some great songs. His music has helped me make it through some tough times in my life. Good job.
Slaid I can't tell you how pleased that this Canadian gal found your music.
What a gem you are.
And having the opportunity to meet you in Buffalo at the Sportsmen Tavern when your wife said "go on and see him, he's outside...you're first" and there you were standing there against the wall, by yourself, after a simply amazing show....and I got to tell you how much I Love your music!
And a CD signed and pictures.
You are an amazing artist who's songs speak right to the heart.
Thanks Slaid.
Oh and this song is killer. Xo
Whenever I pick up my guitar to strum, I find myself drifting to Slaid's ever-increasing catalog of classics. The man has put together some great songs and you should go straight to his webpage to buy a few discs. Sorrow and Smoke never leaves my car!
sheckyvision That is my favorite CD!
Amen, brother. This one is on my regular setlist when I play. Too good to leave at home.
A singer/songwriter that paints pictures with words. This is a Masterpiece!!
lovely song, reminds me of the 2000s and the early teens here in michigan, thank god things are getting better
Slaid is a great artist
This is a wonderfully powerful piece of music and lyrically concise and brutal
Fantastic and a true lament for our times
Slaid Cleaves is like a less angry James McMurtry.
As a guitarist-I can't understand why anyone could care less about what year or make of guitar was used to create this masterpiece. Could of been done with an early '70's Crestwood,for all I care, and for all that matters. Great song. Thank you.
Just saw him in Richmond. Great music and an equally great story teller.
This man is a poet of our times; he lives it
Just saw his awesome show in Buffalo yesterday.
Brutal drive . Took us almost 5 hours from North of Barrie.
Long weekend craziness on the road.
When we got there we were told he was on his 3rd song.
Hubby went upstairs to the bar but I stayed standing by the sound man.
I wasn't coming all that way to see him on a screen.
What a show. What a huge talent.
And at the end of the show his wife Karen sent me out to see him first.
There he was just standing at the front of the Sportsmen Tavern.
Had a great chat with him about his powerful song Breakfast in Hell and how impressed a lot of us Canadians are that he wrote such a gem.
He was lovely.
Picture taken.
CD signed.
He is an incredible musician who is also a very intelligent songwriter. His real gift is knowing how to touch peoples hearts.
Thank you for sharing your gift Slaid. Love your music.
Powerful song from Slaid, it always puts a shiver up my neck. Poignant stuff, as is so much of his wonderful catalogue of songs...
This man is a genius
I have only heard the masterpieces: Broke Down, and Still Fighting the War.
I'm sold. Slaid should be getting millions of views- and dollars for his talent.
I'm from the dark woods, But we have A.M. radio still, I just found the best storyteller and a gifted musician I believe I ever heard. That is not based on 1 song but every song I have listened to by Slaid Cleaves.
So good! He puts so much emotion in his music.
Great song and performance. Love to see Slaid live, especially at the Blue Door in OKC or Woody Guthrie Fest in Okemah. Come back soon!
What a great song!
Gonna see Slaid next week! I absolutely love this guys stuff! Looooong time fan!
His voice does something real to me. I keep coming back for more.
slaid is a great singer songwriter
I came across this by accident. Wow, I'm going to be looking for more!
Great song too, Brandon. Keep searching through Slaid's catalogue. You have only scratched the surface. The entirety of Broke Down is an album everyone should own (and I don't say that, ever). Lydia is one the most beautiful, heart-breaking songs I've ever heard. So much good stuff!
yeees! slaid cleaves one of my favorite musicians by far ones of the best ive ever heard. if you guys could get him to sing (another mans wealth) i would be in heaven lol
yessss i found it
Very True,how sad we've lost so many jobs! Great song!!!
Superb. Well crafted masterpiece
This man is a masterpiece
Just saw him in Santa Cruz Ca, was fantastic ! Loved it
A friend has just told me about Slaid after seeing him live in London. Beautiful! xx
Great song. Delivered beautifully.
A Batwing Gibson is a thing of beauty and nice to hold in your heart
wow i am a huge fan now. keep 'em coming
Well composed songs excuted masterfully with feeling way under rated by radio keep going from another Maine Musician
Breathtaking !!!!
I grew up in Ohio in the 2000s, this song hit me really hard, watching all the factories get torn down and turned into parking-lots.
Just discovered Slaid's music. Good stuff!
Nice to hear you Slaid, glad it's going well.
Superb
Very nice!
Learned a little something here................
Beauty. I thought it was my guitar, a '56 Gibson Country and Western model. Beautiful sound. Great underpinning for a super song.
Very earthy reminds me of this Boston guy - goes under " Protocalone " street music always is so much more real. Go Slaid!!!!
this should be American workers song
why isn't this the biggest song in americana?
Because it's not politically correct.
Because it's not liberal.
Because the singer isn't diverse enough.
That Guitar is a 1960's Gibson J-50, built in Kalamazoo Michigan! Sounds amazing doesn't it?
Excelent!

Where is he now? I wanna promote him
We wouldn't mind having Breakfast in Hell with Slaid Cleaves...
Check out this exclusive backstage interview with the singer-songwriter: ruclips.net/video/pfGexbL57KE/видео.html
Does anyone have the chords to this song?
“This is good song.”
this is an insanely good song. i have yet to find a slaid song i dont really enjoy or find some insight from. "no one remembers your name just from workin' hard"
We'll remember your name for "working hard"...
A truly great artist and a voice of America. Those that like Slaid should also check out Tyler Childers, I think you will like it. Please share these artists with friends and family so people can learn and appreciate
tried listening to tyler, couldn't understand but about every 10th word he sang...thank you for loving music, though!
What album is this track off ?
A little late, okay a lot late, but I think it's from still fighting the war
great song. I heard "breakfast in hell" on pandora and that led me here.
the rust belt moves south
if You like this listen to john hutchinson one last kiss- fallen angels- and talk to me
The truth of what happened.
Bankers are not even wankers.
no one remembers your name just for working hard...
