- This such a cool and fresh take on a all time classic Ella Fitzgerald tune. Love the playing, the singing, and the whole vibe!

These two have completely restored my faith in music of today's scene.
Song has a good bit of history. It's a Gershwin Brothers song from "Porgy and Bess" and was written to imitate the old timey folk sound. It's been sung by may greats over the years. Notably for this style, two artists from the 1960s really brought the song into a new dimension that still influence how the song remains ever popular is certain circles and how it is performed. Janis Joplin performed "Summertime" regularly in concert. The other artist of the 1960s that really gave the song new legs was Doc Watson and that is a big influence on this performance.
Billy is playing a guitar from 1930's ... this absolute gold
Doc Watson would be proud. They really kept true to Doc's version of this track. No surprise really, Billy is a massive Doc Watson fan.
Exactly what I thought when I first heard this. Immediately reminded me of Doc and Merle
I am the biggest BMFS fan there is, but DAMN every time I listen to this I am blown away by the parts Marcus plays during the last verse. His accent chording with the bite in that tone is just fucking awesome.
This is one of my favorite performances of all time by anybody. And I enjoyed watching you enjoy it, because you're obviously someone who knows how incredibly good it is. lol
Marcus can chord comp so damn well.
He’s leads are also insanely melodic. God I’m jealous
Gotta react to Turmoil and the Tinfoil by Billy Strings. The official music video if you can
Great video!
They are both excellent tho, are they not?! :)
You seem familiar with Billy already, but on the off-chance that you've not seen it yet, I'd love to see your thoughts on his "Turmoil & Tinfoil" - #PanteraBluegrass FTW!! ;)

I’m familiar with him but not that song. I will definitely add it to the list. Thank you!

this version is widely accepted as the best amongst the fan base. however, everyone has their own favorite from a show they personally went to. Billy strings live is a totally different animal
Written by George Gershwin in the 1930s
