Yep, same here. Checked out Levon Helms version, meh…Then found this sublime version. WOW! The old creep in me does like looking at those girls though…
agree, this is so good, as someone mentioned in the comments I check this video out at least once a month. I found them after Laine Hardy's American Idol audition in 2018.
Now theres a crazy concept 5 talented guys that can actually sing and play instruments (NO MACHINES OR COMPUTERS).It's sad this is almost extinct in music today. Great performance!!!!!
If you think that's extinct, you're looking in the wrong places. Its all over. One of my favs is a Norwegian who sings, plays guitar, bass, banjo, drums, produces, and films his own stuff. He takes songs and makes em metal. If thats not your cup of tea, Steve n seagulls takes metal and turns it into bluegrass. The. Theres always Texas country if you need a little red dirt in your coffee.
Blame radio executives for the obscurity of bands like this. Spotify, Pandora, and RUclips Music opens up a world of great music. The Buggles nailed it in 1980.
I sent this to my Dad who's a long time Bluegrass musician. Their band (Pacifc...ly Bluegrass) had some great harmonies, and I knew he'd appreciate it. But damn right, that dude singing tenor on the harmonies is amazing. I initially heard the album version of this on Pandora but then found this performance. A new favorite band, for sure.
@@michaellorah9051 agreed, going from album version to this I wasn't crazy about it at first but it's growing on me. I wish sound would tone him down just a hair but I mean it's definitely good.
Am I just completely clueless? Are these guys big stars? If not, I have no idea why. Holy cow! Unbelievable harmonies. Great musicians, great sound, fantastic song. Thanks man!
I’ve seen these fine gentlemen perform this song many times, but this is truly the best I’ve heard. Such a fabulous gathering of talent! Prayers for NOLA and the Gulf Coast as Ida brings her destructive winds and rain
I’m late to the party! I just discovered these guys earlier this year and I cannot get enough! I’m seeing them for the second time later this week. They are brilliant!
I've never heard of this band, but heard Laine Hardy sing this on American Idol. Now I'm a convert! Can't wait to download this album and hear all their songs.
I hear almost all music genders like rock, dubstep, some heavy metal, and this. I believe this is country type music. This is just great music to have when driving
This is what I would call modern outlaw country. Im more of a rock guy. I love shinedown, rise against, avenged sevenfold and stuff like that but I can’t get enough of this type of music.
@@johnjacob4973 Totally agree. Shes talking about laine hardy played it on amreican idol (he won) I never heard of them either until then. Been learning guitar, this is 2nd song I'm learning. Great tune! It had me come across uncle lucius - keep the wolves away. That songs deep being a true story.
Been on of my favorite groups for a long time, I love the folksy songs, and especially the ones that have a Louisiana undertone, they might be from Texas but they give it the Louisiana feeling, take that from a Louisiana girl through and throught
I absolutely fell in love with Band of Heathens. My 6 year old grandson turned me on to this song singing it with a microphone. I had never heard of them and went home and pulled up their music. Been listening to them every since!
Credit Laine Hardy and American Idol for possibly......finally.....getting these guys introduced to a wider audience! They deserve it and Laine, best of luck to ya in the competition. You're as talented as these guys. 🤞👌👍
I'm a cajun in the mist of this shit even though I call Florida my home now. New Orleans will always be my heart! I miss it! Sometimes I just want to go back. Home
I was making a playlist of epic hardcore Country music on spotify and this was one of the songs recommended by spotify to add to it. Needless to say, I'm damn glad I added it.
Great song, beautifully played. The voices are top, guitars simple but with great Ideas and feeling. Great slide solo. I like the organ solo that reminds me to the Doors , Bass and drums are great in rhythm section. In the late 70s they would have become a world known top band, I hope they can get it now too.
That’s funny when I went to NC I was wearing an LSU hat and they asked what it was and I told them I’m from Louisiana and thay we’re so confused ther brains almost exploded
Standing up right in the middle swaying to the rhythm of that soft smooth riff sipping my bourbon from my flask singing every line that would be the day …
Wow-so glad I found this song-bluesy-soul -heard while pumping gas-dude playing it in his truck -had dreads down to his -knees-had on a Reggae hat-Ernie Ball sticker on the side of the truck- asked him who it was-so glad I did-Thanks man! Love it! Now need to listen to the rest of this group's music!
I'm a Georgia boy,but I have worked in Louisiana,Amazing place and people I love the culture and heritage if I ever leave Georgia that's where I'm headed

Good GOD! I have to admit I never knew who these guys were until Laine Hardy sang this tune. I'm sold on you guy's! Absolutely amazing and talented bunch of men!
wow can't believe in the last five years, i never heard this song....It took a 17yo kid to bring it out.....Something is wrong in America where the good talent like this is so hidden!!
I’m here because a friend told me this song reminded her of me (I’m from Louisiana now living in St. Louis) and I’m in love!!! I’m discovering TBOH and I’m obsessed!!!!!!
A friend printed me out two sheets of music paper while out jamming... One was Simple Man by Lynard Skynard and Hurricane by Band of Heathens witch I never heard of Band of Heathens before He said you can sing both of them so I took the sheet music home just a couple weeks ago and like you said your abcessed with this Band I have listened to there You Tube Videos so much because I feel the pressure is on me now because New Years Eve bringing my guitar over and going to play Both song's "Wish me Luck" 😕😂
I love this song it captures the blues and the jazz spirit of endurance only found in Louisiana brilliant. Keep up the good work !!! It’s a complement your welcome
I was coming from a job in Lake Charles LA back home to Charlotte NC through New Orleans across Lake Pontchartrain at 3 am 4 years ago and heard this song for the first time on the radio and been a huge fan ever since. l am amazed at the power of this song, huge IMO
My birthday is 4/20 and we still don't have our beaches open. I'm from New Orleans and came here early in life for the beaches. Please say something nice for me. Love you guys!
7 years later and I still probably watch this once a month. Never gets old.
Black Berry smoke never get old. I know I should hit the road
How guitars 🎸 travel. Looking for a following wind. It's been a long road. Peace ✌ ☮
Everyday
yes!
I heard Levon Helm sing this song many many years ago. I believe he would be extremely impressed to hear these Heathens do it, I am!
A preseason hurricane may be near

Restores my faith that real music will NEVER die. Damn, so good!
have you tried getting over yourself?
Thanx to The Castellows I discover this band now. Pure music. Pure truth from the heart. ❤
Me2... nice to discover something new to dig into
Found these guys because the shop I work in has a crew that digs the blues and some country. Im thankful.

Absolutely......
They cleaned up the Audio a bit in the mix, you can tell there's a reverb added that definitely wasn't natural. But your point still stands.

The dude’s high harmony on that first chorus tho 🤯🤯🤯

It threw me for a loop at first but I'll be damned if it hasn't grown on me a ton.

I am so glad for Utube. So many great bands and sings and songs, I never heard of. My play list gets bigger all the time.
Everyone that loves this Louisiana music definitely loves Whiskey Myers
Am I just completely clueless? Are these guys big stars? If not, I have no idea why. Holy cow! Unbelievable harmonies. Great musicians, great sound, fantastic song. Thanks man!
They are actually pretty popular. Amazing show for sure
Original is better. My opinion. But this is GREAT.
@@larrysmith1312 l’m so stupid I forgot this is a Band song. And they are one of my all time favorite bands. Getting old blows!
@@RichardHughes15 It ain't a Band song, although it was recorded by the great Levon Helm of the Band in '80.
Told you l was an idiot. Who did the original?
Pfft American Idle whatever. I'm here because good music brought me here. Whiskey Myers, Cody Jinks, Ryan BIngman.
That might well be the case but it's not always easy to find it these days.
Mike McClure, Ragweed.....
Pfft. I’m guessing you haven’t seen Laine Hardy
David Hall...yes!!!

We are very resilient in New Orleans. We've had to rebuild many times. We always come back. Hard working people who enjoy life is what we're about.
Ida decimated my ex wife and daughters house. Homeowners still hasn't paid. Nothing changes...

This band is awesome!! Love this song and the harmony!!
This is what I would call modern outlaw country. Im more of a rock guy. I love shinedown, rise against, avenged sevenfold and stuff like that but I can’t get enough of this type of music.
Never heard of these guys until American idol, this an awesome song!!

Totally agree with you...
True,, Laine Hardy

You should listen the original Levon Helms singing this song

Been on of my favorite groups for a long time, I love the folksy songs, and especially the ones that have a Louisiana undertone, they might be from Texas but they give it the Louisiana feeling, take that from a Louisiana girl through and throught
I saw these guys on a Monday night in a local venue. One of the loudest, best shows I've ever been to. So clean! Thank you fellas!
Luv this group! Born in Lake Charles! Luv their sound! Don’t hear this much at all! ❤️❤️❤️
I lived in Lake Charles from 2005-2010. Loved everything about it! I can relate to this song. One of my favorite songs to play on guitar!
I absolutely fell in love with Band of Heathens. My 6 year old grandson turned me on to this song singing it with a microphone. I had never heard of them and went home and pulled up their music. Been listening to them every since!

Ryan Bigham, your music speaks to me. I enjoy the part you play on Yellowstone, but your music transcends all of that. God bless you brother!
I'm from NOLA and love this song and band!
How is nobody jamming with them in the audience. I’d be standing up swaying back and forth. Jamming with them. Instantly my favorite song.
Standing up right in the middle swaying to the rhythm of that soft smooth riff sipping my bourbon from my flask singing every line that would be the day …
Believe it or not, there are venues that say you can't do that. You can't tap your toes or anything.
Good music. Not that crap big industry is shoveling out.
Fuck yeah
Well done lads. Lowell, Ritchie, and Paul, in their other spirits, would be proud!
Holy Crap! They are AWESOME!
Outstanding song!!! 👍

I'm a metalhead, and this is one of the greatest songs I've ever heard
Thirty miles on the Gulf Stream
I hear the south wind moan
The bridges getting lower
The shrimp boats coming home
The old man down in the Quarter
Slowly turns his head
Takes a sip from his whiskey bottle
And this is what he said
I was born in the rain on the Pontchartrain
Underneath the Louisiana moon
I don't mind the strain of a hurricane
They come around every June
The high black water, a devil's daughter
She's hard, she's cold and she's mean
But nobody taught her, it takes a lot of water
To wash away New Orleans
Man came down from Chicago
He gonna set that levee right
He says, "it needs to be at least three feet higher
It won't make it through the night"
But the old man down in the Quarter
He said "don't you listen to that boy
The water be down by the morning
And he'll be back to Illinois"
I was born in the rain on the Pontchartrain
Underneath the Louisiana moon
I don't mind the strain of a hurricane
They come around every June
The high black water, a devil's daughter
She's hard, she's cold and she's mean
But nobody taught her, it takes a lot of water
To wash away New Orleans
Thirty miles on the Gulf Stream
I hear the South wind moan
Bridges getting lower
