    3 man acoustic jam is as good as music gets. I think Holy is great. The fact these songs never hit the radio tells a lot about the music industry.

    The song "waiting on June" saved my life. Genuinely. I was deep in depression, drinking, drugs etc. This song made me stop in my tracks, I hope to find my own June. Such a well sung song and feelings so deep they touch souls, even my rotten soul. Thanks for this. Thanks for me finding this. Hope I'm in the right track.
    Thanks.

      I’m sitting here and the tears are running down my face after spending a week with my elderly parents, who are in fear of what the next phase of life will look like for them. I have a much deeper understanding of what they are clinging to after hearing this amazing song. A gift, 🙏 ❤️

    I'm ashamed to say I knew nothing of Holly Williams 'til the NPR podcasts dropped into my aural sphere. I was immediately taken aback and cried on hearing "Waiting on June". Beautiful melodies, with lyrics of simplicity and understatement, which capture what all of us feel. Universal yet unique.

      Its an electric stand-up bass. Since its electric the gigantic body isn't necessary.

  • @AlamoCityCello
    @AlamoCityCello 10 лет назад

    A whole lot of "Cryin' in the Beer". Her songs are all sad and depressing.
    It might be great therapy for Miss William's to sing this set. But must we endure it?
    a real DRAG, if you ask me.
    Ok, she has a pleasant enough voice. Playing is pretty good also. But why must every single song be so sad and depressing? How about some EMOTIONAL VARIETY! I promise you, the audience will tune out real quick if that's all Miss Williams has.

    • @SladrerIkke

      SladrerIkke JOY IS ALSO REAL LIFE!. And so is HAPPINESS.
      What's with all the sadness here? Isn't there enough pain and suffering in the world already? So now we got to listen to a bunch more?
      AHHH QUIT YOUR BELLYACHEN!!

    • @SladrerIkke
      @SladrerIkke 10 лет назад +5

      John Stuart lol - the only one whining is you? Sad emotions trigger sad songs? Nothing wrong with that. It's part of life like joy and love. I am sure you can find a lot of feel-good songs out there.

    • @HurricaneRoses
      @HurricaneRoses 10 лет назад +5

      John Stuart Ha, the only real "DRAG" here is you. No one's making you listen, man. Funny that the joyous, happy one is the first to post a negative comment. We're all lovin' it. Her music is beautiful and poignant. If you can't appreciate it go listen to Taylor Swift.
