As someone who grew up in the Ozarks, and who knew Nick a bit from childhood I'm so pleased with his portrayal of the musical heritage we have. Keep it coming, and it'll keep making me homesick.
Sorry but you should hear me whistle. No hate. I’ve been tweetin and tunin for a decade probably. Actually as I’m typin this it just got to his whistling and I got to say I can’t hit that beginning part. He’s good!
Lyrics:My eyes adjust, my joints are rusty, sheets are awful cold and dusty, roll over folks it must have been another night on the bend. Kick rocks, slept in socks, BooLahLah and levee walks, this couch is my kingdom and I swear there’s bugs in my head. Sick sad and sentient, a penny saved a penny spent, asleep at the wheel sure beats being awake in my bed. Last call to feel small, I dread the sight of alcohol, I don’t know where this train stops but I want off. Been rather low, out here together.

I told you once I told you twice, I’m steeped in verse and cursed in vice, I traded my 40 acres for a mountain of pain. Hotdamn Hamm’s can, blinded in the promised land, I don’t mind if I do declare: we’re as good as dead. Been rather low, out here together. Reckon that we’ll keep trying if rock bottom it never shows You’re not alone, if there’s a storm to weather I aint welcome at home, I don’t know about you
This is absolutely one of the most outstanding things I’ve seen in a long time. Bravo, sir! In my estimation, you’re right up there with Colter Wall and all the new outlaws of the Country genre, and I hope ticket sales reflect that for you soon.
I grew up one town over from Nick in Mayflower Arkansas, and some of my fondest memories lie in the Ozark Mountains. His songs are beautiful I feel like I’m being called back home
What I love about this, and the WAF vids generally, is the rawness. No over production, no bloody drums, just a freakin' perfect live performance in great locations. The best thing that came out of lockdown here in Australia for me was finding Nick and the new generation of Country. Happy days!
Straight up one of the best vocal talents across the board today, some of the best singers these days are scared to yodel or record a whistle, thay can't keep it, this guy has some crazy lungs and control of breath, and we dont even dive into songwriting within that sentiment
I have shared this song twice with friends in the last two days--it helps me and I know it helps others. I share it when I know someone is struggling. Thanks for creating it!
This video has sent me down a very long rabbit hole. I am now a HUGE Nick Shoulders fan. Western AF is a fantastic channel, thank you for all the amazing content spotlighting so much talent.
Just heard this guy for the first time a few weeks ago while playing through some Charley Crockett. His stuff has quickly grown on me! This guy is the truth man hearing this solo performance just goes to show he’s a real and solid musician. Love you’re getting some listens on Spotify!
I just love this man so much. He kept showing up on my recommended but i didnt get into him until i was forced to listen on a playlist with tyler childers and molly tuttle and them.
I actually heard you the other day on Craig Charles (Uk here) and your intellect and droll humour came through and appealed but oh, my, listening to you has blown my mind. I liked your voice so much I listened to a podcast. But your album is even more amazing. My favourite is the G song. Bound is a true protest song.
My family has a large farm in Missouri. We all had a unique holler. My Grandpa especially was super loud. You could pick out his holler two miles off and you better hustle home if you heard it. He and his brother could both really yodel, especially drunk. Cattle or hog calling is fun to listen too as well. To this day, I have a call I do every time I call up my herd. They learn to recognize you and come running.
He did two excellent sets at Merlefest 2024 last week, he was so good. I am even more of a fan after seeing Nick and band live. He has such great voice and is truly talented singer/songwriter. Shoutout to Sierra Ferrell for making aware of Nick.
Holy!! Just bouncing around youtube channels I randomly came across this video. I'M SITTING AT A CAFE RIGHT ACROSS THE STREET FROM THIS HOUSE. Talk about wild synchronicities!
a controlled yell, i like that enough to employ such an idea. My grandmother Lola was a wonderful songbird aslo!! she was the first person i heard yodeling ever!! Your great man!! thank you for the flashbacks!!!!
New fan to Nick. Love your music and positive creativity. So glad you got a lot of airplay on this site, but I seek out your videos regularly now. Thanks!
trying to figure out the chords and strumming pattern to this. This is what I have so far, if you can help me out that would be great! E B7 E (bend E string turn around) E b7 E B7 E A

The algorithm didn't bring me here, the mullet summoned me.
😂😂😂 I second that!
😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
The Mullet is strong in this one..
Here, Here!
I gave myself a mullet last night and now I'm here. Coincidence? Maybe...
“I’ll die where I stand if I hear Wagon Wheel again”😂😂
He is not alone! That song makes me want to suck start a pistol, no matter who covers it.
I cant even listen to "country music" anymore. The Steeldrivers, old hank, Doc watson. Thats the good stuff
The original Old Crow Medicean Show version is alright, they make good music, but that song is way overdone.
@@Thunderchicken69 bob dylan did it before them. I think its an old folk song
No kidding, put my tab on the one who found those damn Dylan chorus lyrics once upon a time in Mexico, they can afford it
As soon as I saw his haircut, I knew he was an absolute legend.
G8 Eddie crushing
Australian?
@@nerthus4685 yeah nah
The dude's an absolute legend and a beaut in spite of his haircut, IMO
haha
Interesting haircut; business on the top, punk on the sides, yodel in the back.
Hahahahahahaha
🤣🤣🤣
@Channel Business up front, party out the back!
It's the quintessential mullet description ;-)
This is an amazing comment.
LMAO too good

Christopher Moon where in the Ozarks? I’m from there, (southwest Missouri) and I’m just curious as to what part y’all from.
@@ezradevore8727 Northwest Arkansas!
I bet he was an interesting feller to know! He's pretty good. I hope he goes far
Does Jason Bateman live near you
@@joeanderson3660 he lives in LA... but Ozarks wasn’t filmed in Missouri. It was filmed on lake Lanier in Georgia
My wife manages a hair salon and I showed her this mans glorious 2 tone mullet.
We’ve never disagreed on something more in our 12 years together lol.
haha
Git 1.
I cut hair. This mans mullet is fire!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
A mullet is just an extra wide Mohawk
I Hear Banjos
Yep, well she’s wrong.
When you yodel so good that even your own *whistle* yodels
This man whistles like a bird!
The eyes of an eagle, wisdom of an owl, and the whistle of a canary...
Ladies and gentlemen, this man is for the birds!
A good yodel is hard to come by.
No hate, this guy is genius. His whistle is a threat to R2-D2.
Kyle Dowell those are actually bird calls which I find even cooooooler
R2-D2 was a space industry sellout!
Sorry but you should hear me whistle. No hate. I’ve been tweetin and tunin for a decade probably. Actually as I’m typin this it just got to his whistling and I got to say I can’t hit that beginning part. He’s good!
@@Evan-yw2qj let’s see my guy upload a video
If you’re gonna have a haircut like that you better be able to blow the crowd away! That was awesome!
Bad Luck Bill it is kinda like what my paw told me about my bull riding, if you are gonna be that stupid then it is a good thing you are tough
Bad luck Bill, if that's the case I'd say he pulls it off then! 👍
Just here to get this billiant comment to 666
I didn't look for this but I'm sure glad I found it.
I don't look like this but I'd sure be glad if I did.

Hot damn son! Damn near flung a boot clear cross mommas kitchen tryin to dance.
@Ryan Brooke Payne I'll take that into consideration, but not until Im bout done scootin to this here song. 😁
This. Comment. Is. Life.
Just when I think America is done for, you come out and totally open my eyes. 😁
Ahh Man,i know.been holding the screen door open, listening, LMAO n letting in all the flies!
Hell yeah
Nick: *drops a masterpiece*
People: “that mullet tho”
Its a righteous mullet! Some people make it look good and most don't!
This mans mullet mustache combo beckons me
This is absolutely one of the most outstanding things I’ve seen in a long time. Bravo, sir! In my estimation, you’re right up there with Colter Wall and all the new outlaws of the Country genre, and I hope ticket sales reflect that for you soon.
I always thought I could whistle pretty good, but I can't whistle worth a damn compared to this guy.
Kevin Sultenfuss look up Roger Whittaker South African Canadian whistler. That’s some good shit.
I came here to say exactly that!
his whistle can whistle better than i can whistle
I can barely whistle
My two year old daughter has fallen in love with what she calls “whistle song”. We listen to this song at minimum twice per day for the last 3 weeks 😂
❤
I never thought id like country music, but here I am, loving every second of this old time sounding country music
I grew up one town over from Nick in Mayflower Arkansas, and some of my fondest memories lie in the Ozark Mountains. His songs are beautiful I feel like I’m being called back home

All this talk about how he looks. Anyone actually hear this guy's voice and his amazing lyrics?!
felt the levee walks one
Yes his lyrics scream out to me..
I keep returning to this! Is it the voice? The whistling? The yodelling? The guitar playing? Whatever it is, it’s brilliant.
He’s the best
"I'll die where I stand if I hear wagon wheel again." Needs to be on merch.
That mullet grew a whole human and then taught it the guitar n how to sing!
🤣
Old timey and awesome. This is the best thing on this channel. It's nice to hear new country/folksy music that's not so serious and heavy.
Singer, whistler, guitar, banjo, mouthbow, artist, handsome, funny.... leave some skills for the rest of us 😂❤️ love your music! Xx
Just found a new favorite, this guy is reeking of talent.
He looks like the kind of guy that would own a lot of tigers
Yesss. Hahaha
Wait Joe had a singing career before abusing tigers/lions? 😂😂
You referencing Joe Exotic???🤣🤣🤣
👏👏👏👏
Shot at The Tigermen Den. Coincidence?

I’ve been jamming to his music for a couple months and no one I show can truly appreciate how great his music is.
Mighty fine pickn and singing, and a mighty fine Tennessee Top Hat !!
I have shared this song twice with friends in the last two days--it helps me and I know it helps others. I share it when I know someone is struggling. Thanks for creating it!
@nickshouldersmusic. , doing pretty well, thanks. And of course! I thoroughly enjoyed your set at Hinterland.
Great song, love his style! My dog, Charlie woke up in a hurry with that unexpected whistle. Cool song, cool singer, cool haircut!
Michael Pryor, not a fan of the haircut are ya? lol
This video has sent me down a very long rabbit hole. I am now a HUGE Nick Shoulders fan. Western AF is a fantastic channel, thank you for all the amazing content spotlighting so much talent.
Love you Shoulders. I've been wondering if you were ok and using your talents, glad to see you are. Can't wait to see more.
Just heard this guy for the first time a few weeks ago while playing through some Charley Crockett. His stuff has quickly grown on me! This guy is the truth man hearing this solo performance just goes to show he’s a real and solid musician. Love you’re getting some listens on Spotify!
Great song, very unique style
Nickolas Green Outdoors I didn’t expect to see you here! How has life been since that blizzard video what seems so many years ago
Yeah it great to see ya around Nick!!
Wow! We are smitten with this young man’ sense of style and song writing. What a find!! Can’t wait to hear more from him - very special.
"I'll die where I stand if I hear wagon wheel again." Thank youuuu
"I told you once I told you twice I'm steeped in verse and cursed in vice" - Still one of the best lines I've ever heard.
Nick Shoulders and Sierra Ferrell should definitely do some music together.
If you met this one you would never forget I'm smart and it makes me dangerous
they're touring together this year :))
They should get married, and then get a messy divorce.

When I’m feeling “ rather low” like most of this morning a dose of Mr Shoulders always does the trick👌🎉
The Holy Trinity:
The Mullet
The Mustache
The Holy Yodel
I just love this man so much. He kept showing up on my recommended but i didnt get into him until i was forced to listen on a playlist with tyler childers and molly tuttle and them.

Well, he certainly looks like someone from the Ozarks.
Good stuff!
A face made for radio.
His momma loves him
This song can not stop giving me good such happy vibes every time I’m low it brings me right back up
Western AF has significantly changed my taste in music👍🏼 Can’t hear this kind of stuff on the radio in suburbs of Philly.
Nick your music makes me feel like I’m in an old timey cartoon and I love every second of it.
The haircut alone deserves a thumbs up
Dear Western AF, This hallway is cool AF.....thank you!
Oh God! This whole thing made me smile! Grin even!
I love it all. I love that he mentioned the gospel, the music, the unique style. It's all great.
Roger Miller - unique, Ernest Tubb - style, and Jimmie Rogers Yodels....with his very own originality combined!
Don't forget Slim Whitman!
Wow. Get this man playing in stadiums immediately. Instant fan! What a talent!
Quarantine has done more for my musical interests than anything before... thanks 'Rona, and NICK!
whistling AND yodelling.....so great!!
"I ain't welcome at home, I dont know about you"
a controlled yell, i like that enough to employ such an idea. My grandmother Lola was a wonderful songbird aslo!! she was the first person i heard yodeling ever!! Your great man!! thank you for the flashbacks!!!!
I haven't felt this refreshed since Sturgills reptile aliens.
Saw him in concert! Fantastic show
So good. Fayetteville is proud of ya!!
Thanks!
I love you
I mean, ofc his singing and vocals are amazing, but he handles that guitar so well
New fan to Nick. Love your music and positive creativity. So glad you got a lot of airplay on this site, but I seek out your videos regularly now. Thanks!
@nick shoulders Keep up the great music, Nick!
I can't figure out if I love or hate his hair... Guess I'll sit here and mullet over for awhile...
Niiice
I see what you did there 👍
You had me in the first half, not gonna lie 😂
I've decided it doesnt matter one hoot. The coif suits him and his style. I think its quite charming. People need to be themselves more. 🥰 Go Nick!!
Stop you silly goose
Revisiting this for the umpteenth time! Genius!
🫡
greetings fro a UK bluegrasser..
your fantastic!
This puts a smile on my face every time I watch/listen!
Holy shit this guys voice is crazy, unbelievable talent sir.
This song has been on my suggested for so long, I’m so glad I clicked
Making Arkansas proud, Nick!
One of my favorite songs I'm so glad I get to enjoy this I'm my lifetime
"I'll die where I stand if I hear wagon wheel again"
Yeah... me too.
You make my old soul so happy.
This guys got talent, hope to see him big time soon.
This is one of the most intelligent songs I've heard in a LONG time.
deep af.
I dont subscribe to a channel every day. But when I do. Its Western AF
WoW just heard you-all for the first time, love it, thanks much 🥰
I knew it was a hit once I seen the mullet!!!!
Priceless. Shoulders; An American Treasure.
The song it’s really cool but I’m sorry. That house and haircut look like it should be some deranged horror movie, I love it
That band of yours are still fishing down by the lake. Cool groove man
I picture him driving an 86 Monte Carlo🤘🏼
I found Nick yesterday and I'm obsessed. I love the album art!
Unlike Billy Strings...this mans soul seems intact...
Who do you think picked the hair style?
I’ve been listening to this song non stop
trying to figure out the chords and strumming pattern to this. This is what I have so far, if you can help me out that would be great!

Cdeck 222 haha thanks man. I need to too
Freak'n Epic - hearing for first time in Nov 2021- hope he comes out to Australia asap!
HELL YES!🤯🤯🤯
This young man is something special !! His band is great.
Nick!!! You’re welcome at home buddy, come on back for a drink.
I never thought about yodeling before - now I can't stop playing this. This is outstanding - the whistling fantastic.
There’s a whole lotta things that haircut would likely foretell he’s into... glad one of em is playing good music
Love you Nick. You’re music has helped me maintain my stride. Thank you sir.
