I’ve been going to Bluegrass Festivals since the 70’s and I always thought the best part was walking around to all the campsites and listening to people jamming . THIS IS AMERICA’S MUSIC !!
Here in Virginia, we have Bluegrass festivals east of Richmond annually. Went to one a few years back, it was a lot of fun. Sad Ralph Stanley open a table and chair about 10 feet away. But the best (besides seeing Ralph) was the talent show every night. In addition to the celebrities, they ask the audience for any guitar player, fiddle and so on. They agree on a number and away they go!
@@jerrytaylor4078 You mind sharing the name of some of these festivals? I'm a recent bluegrass convert from Virginia, and a lifelong musician. I don't even want to perform, just trying to see as much of this music as possible.
SORRY bunky, this is not really americas music; it’s African, Scots and Irish al mixed together . Real AMerican music from this continent: Think drums, rattles , bells and flutes.
Nothing better than seeing and hearing a topnotch bluegrass band playing a Scruggs classic. You have to be an excellent musician to play Bluegrass. No such thing as faking it whatsoever.
I just saw the PBS special with Bela Fleck. I heard the name Sierra Hull and came to RUclips. Am I glad I did!! By the way, I am a 67 year old head banger who loves bluegrass! The musicians are just so good.
My dad grew up in Appalachia. He he owned and could play every musical instrument that they're playing right there in that group except the cello. I miss watching him and his friends Jam. Beautiful music thank you for sharing.❤
The music I was raised on! Makes me miss my parents! Daddy played Dobro and mom played mandolin and guitar! When I was growing up didn’t appreciate it like I do now!! My uncle was an amazing banjo player! Wish I could go back in time! What a childhood
Miss my dad every time I hear bluegrass. Every Wednesday just me and Dad would go to community center and listen to locals play. Highlight of my childhood. My special bond with Dad. Youngest of 5 so there wasn’t a lot of 1 on 1 time for any of us
I’m having a tough time in my life at the moment and it would be easy just to sink into myself and play sad songs but I would rather listen to these guys, very uplifting.
Watching from the UK. You guys sure know how to have a music party. All fantastic players. The young lady is a powerhouse on the Mandolin. Been playing guitar most of my life; I'd love to attend a genuine country music event featuring Bluegrass. Looks like a lot of fun.
Miss Sierra did it again last night in East TN. WHAT A SHOW!!! IT WAS PERFECT. She finished her set, did an encore, then asked everyone to come close, and finished with an acoustic jam!!! Those that know Bluegrass, know that's how it's done. Love the Po' boys too, saw them at this same stage earlier this year. Music is alive and well in TN thanks to these young folk.
Ngl. I went to one of these country festivals a few years back in Indiana. It was like a harvest festival. As Mexican man, not only did they welcome me in and celebrated with me. They had a piano there that I just shredded on. Honestly I've never heard or played foggy mountain breakdown. But after listening to it for a few seconds. I was able to play it on piano.
I have always been a banjo fan but the more I listen to Bluegrass music, the more I live and appreciate the Mandolin! The great thing is in bluegrass music I often get both!! This was great!
I get chills when these notes kick in whether I am listening to the Flatt & Scruggs original or this fantastic version by these talented musicians. Thanks for keeping it real!
Really enjoyed the solo from the younger mandolin player and the crowd really cheering him on afterwards. What a nice moment to cap off an already amazing performance.
What I have always enjoyed the most in attending Bluegrass Festivals are the impromptu jam secessions that take place in the parking lot or the camping areas after the main stage acts are finished. One year at Strawberry in California, Seldom Scene was one of the headliners. Walking through the camping area I stopped to listen to a couple guys sitting around a campfire jamming with the members of Seldom Scene. I am sure that is a memory those pickers will never forget. Shout out to Sierra Hull , Molly Tuttle , A.J. , Sarah Jarosz, Billy Strings, Michael Cleveland and all the young , magnificent musicians helping to keep Bluegrass and Americana music alive !!
Reminds me of the bluegrass festivals we went to when I was a kid, the main stage was good, but the BEST music was always out in the camping area. Foggy Mountain is a bluegrass standard, and I love the younger players getting involved. What makes this performance particularly impressive, is the fact that the tempo steadily increases all the way through the song.
No kidding! I remember the festivals where the camp was better than the stage. The Coffee Gap Cork Likkers went all night. Then early next morning Sam Bush joins in! Epic!!!
We love the festivals. Went around and jammed with the Smokin Dobroleles and Full Cord Bluegrass this summer late night at Forest Trails. What a gas!!!
@@loriwise3177 how to define a hard core bluegrass fan. He drives 600 miles to the festival. pays usd 200 to get in. he never sees a show, but spends the whole time jamming with his friends, with whom he jams every friday in hin home town!!
I don’t know how many different people I’ve heard play this song and I always love it because most of the time when you have a group of musicians who will play this song they’ve got mad chops.

Boy, do I miss bluegrass jams!
The joys of bluegrass
Thanks
This was fantastic !!! I miss living in East TN. You've gained another subscriber.
Fantastic music. Love from scotland UK
This is one of those songs . No matter who plays it it never gets old ❤

I used to go the Kentucky fried chicken bluegrass festival in Louisville, and your right, it’s a blast in the campgrounds .
Yes, it is. You have to go where they are hiding. They don't come out, ya have to go in amongst em.
SORRY bunky, this is not really americas music; it’s African, Scots and Irish al mixed together . Real AMerican music from this continent: Think drums, rattles , bells and flutes.
What has more power to make you feel better than a bluegrass band? Nuttin’. Even if you were feeling good, you’ll still end up feeling better.
I wish I was this talented
You could get to this point if you practice! It's amazing what practice can do.
We need more of this type of thing....notice how it puts a smile on everyone's face.....good time people 😊
Yea,, if this doesn’t get your feet moving it’s too late, you’re already dead.
That's the great thing about bluegrass, everyone is usually so happy.

I thought exactly the same thing!!!
Yes, Catherine you are absolutly right. Azur is blue!
Young Wyatt Ellis will grow to be a legend inshallah
People like this make this country great. Oh how I wish things never changed
The banjo player is so good he makes it look easy. He looks like he's barely even moving his hands.
He plays amazing, a real cool cat.
He is really good , no joke
Dude is 🔥
...and he's getting amazing tone while doing so.
Yeah I would put him right there with Buck Trent Grandpa Jones and Roy Clark
I just saw the PBS special with Bela Fleck. I heard the name Sierra Hull and came to RUclips. Am I glad I did!! By the way, I am a 67 year old head banger who loves bluegrass! The musicians are just so good.
Yep, humbling to this seasoned rock guy.
Absolutely agree 👍👍
America is beautiful
einfach nur liebenswerte menschen die die musik mögen
Nice to see them giving the kid a chance. Future right there.
😊
He was pretty good; especially for his age!
@@patrickbrewster806 try following his walk to fame !
Greetings from England. American music at its best!

I’m Vietnamese and I love bluegrass music!
I m kind of new on this journey.
The soggy bottom boys brought me here.
And I love all of you guys&ladies
When musicians of this caliber assemble for a jam the music will be nothing short of fantastic

Great performance -
Bluegrass is criminally underrated... awesome playing guys :)
💯💯💯
I call it Jazz for Country fans.

That's a great memory. Playing bluegrass with family is one of the greatest things in life.
“…nobody cries when you cut up a banjo”…I would!😆
That reminds me of a joke (I forget where I heard it): What do you call perfect pitch? When you toss an accordion into a dumpster and it hits a banjo.
This is real music played by real americans. Nice and simple people. Greetings from Italy .
For the artists, a moment in time. For the audience, a moment of a lifetime.
For sure!
Nice jamming folks. Bring it to FL!
Best comment ever. This goes for all music!
Fantastic! I was slidin’ around corners on dirt roads all over north Texas & Oklahoma! Good stuff!!
Wo Musik gespielt wird, da gibt es keinen Krieg !!!

Take it easy, bro...
same. That's why this music was made.
Rejoice in the Lord, and Foggy Mountain Breakdown.
This girl can play that mandolin like nobody’s business ❤❤❤Them Po boy’s are fire as well
Brilliant, nothing better than watching a bunch of talented musicians jamming and having fun....love this music

Awesome. My favorite kind of music: acoustic, mobile, free, and spontaneous
Absolut hörenswert, Daumen hoch. Greetings from Germany.
Great music. Love from the south coast of England.
The banjo player wins the internet today
I danced around my kitchen with my dog listening this beauty! THANKS! :)
Everyone in that crowd had a smile on their face. How can you not.
Thinking the same thing. How can you listen and not smile?
A true wholesome American art form. They make me proud!

Hey it’s Laura Orshaw on fiddle! She used to be in my dads band, Lykens Valley Bluegrass Boys!
Awesome. 56 and grew up in farm areas in Pa.. Went to tons of Bluegrass Fairs and Even some hoedowns where this jam ruled. Nice job with it.
That's awesome. I would love to go to some jams. I absolutely love playing and listening to bluegrass but I've never seen it live believe it or not.
I'm living in Provence (France) ; it's raining but your video enjoy my afternoon. I like it !
I love this so much. Pure joy.
I guess I’ve listened to this piece a million times in my life------and loved it every time.
Now THAT'S the spirit of Bluegrass ! Awesome stuff !
I love the Sierra smile. What a talent!
That fiddler sure is purdy! Nice to see Laura I these circles.

Amen brother
Now, that's some good stuff there.
Sure is! These folks are awesome.
Beautiful sound! God bless Tennessee!!
Not sure why this was suggested, but I stayed to watch the smiles.
Thanks.
I love the similarities between bluegrass and traditional Irish music. Great stuff.
@@Uncommon_Senze I'm afraid you'll need bigger bait, Petey old son.
We are mostly emigrants..Europa.
Same! bouzoukis are criminally underrated in american folk music :)
I enjoyed very much. Greetings from Europe.
ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT!! (From Australia)
Nothing more beautiful or inspiring than talented people making music together!
It's great that another generation is upholding this musical tradition.
Yep
My favorite Bluegrass piece

That's why I go. Pick all night.
Excellent arrangement for one of my all time favorite songs.
Notice how almost everyone listening has a smile on their face. 🙂
This ..is the kind of urban music I love so much...keep it always country !
This is one of the best videos on internet!
Clearly you haven’t watched a lot of RUclips then
@@0icekold7 Clearly he HAS actually 😊
Random RUclips Awesomeness! Pickin' N Grinnin' at it's best!

Yes! Play that mountain music, people! ❤
Any time is a good time to break out the Foggy Mountain Breakdown. Awesome.
Sierra is a doll and she's got the lightning. Well done folks.
No one's ever not smiling or tapping away at any bluegrass show. It's real uplifting.🤠🎯💪☝️😅love it
Saw The Po' Ramblin Boys in Ocala last month. Great show
How wonderful: just some guys & gals enjoying themselves, and letting a young man enter into their fun.
This is what will happen at any Bluegrass Festival .
its a well done sending greetings from the Gold Coast Australia i really enjoyed that
Some of the greatest music in American history like it or not
the banjo's picking hand is absolutely mesmerizing.
This is the best music in the world! I love how it's so communal.
fantastic really makes you smile
Wow, that was real virtuoso stuff. Thank you for posting that! Very nice atmosphere.
My but those Southern Country folk can PLAY
Blue grass is Cajun music without an accordian. I love it!!!
Smoking banjo, and I also like Sierra´s and Wyatt´s skills.
Funny to look back to when Sierra was the 12 year old prodigy. She sure did develop into a superb player.
Couldn’t keep from smiling and tapping my feet while listening to you all!
I don’t know how many different people I’ve heard play this song and I always love it because most of the time when you have a group of musicians who will play this song they’ve got mad chops.
Very well done and superb artistic delivery -- everybody has good reason to celebrate the greatness
Love you guys! All the best from Austria!
They killed it! LOVE FOGGY MOUNTAIN !
Oh my goodness, this song went straight to my legs,
dancing greetings from the March (East Germany) to Tennessee.
That's awesome 😂
Awesome, great big smile on my face!
