I'm 65 years old been stuck on classic for 50 years, now the only thing I listen to is this band and won't be able to get enough if I live to 100. I like the way he let's all band members have there own jam in almost every song . The next generation dose have a chance...keep your shine going billy
So I’m from the North. Never listened to bluegrass though always knew the sound. Wasn’t my thing. Then I see on RUclips this kid play “Dust in a baggie” on a couch with an acoustic and the sound and fingers blew me away! Huge fan on Billy Strings, even turning me onto some bluegrass. I’ve been a metal head all my life. I just love music and great guitar playing and sounds! Fuck yeah 🤘🏻
It's not just a jam, or psychedelic diversion; that break makes me feel what I fell after driving 10 hours and it's dark and I'm starting to fall asleep without knowing it yet, and it fits perfectly with the song. Not gimmicky and more than talent. Billy is a creative force.
He and the band are so so talented at invoking and musically emoting different themes in their jams. Just one of many reasons they're not your average bluegrass ensemble!
I imagine when Billy was auditioning guys for the band, he said something like “Ok, on 3, follow my lead”, and these were the only 3 guys in the room that didn’t fall out laughing. They’re all awesome!!!
I could listen to this a million times and it would never get old. Definitely the best band around right now, no debate. Keep it up boys, you're making a lot of people smile!
I have never heard a thing from this band I haven’t loved. I missed several shows in Virginia because I can not afford to go. Next time around I will donate plasma to get the money to see them.
@D D Keller is good, a kind of one-man-band. He got a national following, and he has wookie type stalkers like the band Phish. He has albums, had a song with decent radio air time. He's from Fredericksburg, Va. And tickets to see him were cheap and he plays for free events too. He's on RUclips. In fact I'm gonna check on that now, see what he's been up to, see if my old sweetheart is in the crowd, I miss her.
@@007tcby hello Tom, I am from the Netherlands 🇱🇺 Can you cover my Flight? I can cover beer and tickets bro 😄 Oh and I can bring my guitar to 😂 Just kidding, you had the best Comment on youtube I saw in a while 🤜🏼💚🤛🏼
Wow, I'm normally a very articulate person; but after seeing this my face literally melted off so I can't quite accurately describe what I've just witnessed.
This kid is like Roky Erikson, The Velvet Underground, Gram Parsons, The Stooges, Townes Van Zandt, The Saints, etc. He's so far ahead of the curve that it will take 15-20 years before the world takes notice.
I literally could listen to Billy Strings all day long! I just love what he does and if I ever make it to his part of America I will definitely be going to a show!
Most call him "Billy Strings" here in Ga. We call him "Billy Strangs" King Strangs! Keep playin son, carry you with me to all the remote places I trout guide and fish!
This guy is unreal you’ve got to be kidding me. Every performance he has I’m blown away. Can’t wait to one day see them all live, what a talented set of musicians
@@willierepairone5389 the guy in the green shirt in "dust in a baggie" Edit: Speaking of "dust in a baggie" and coincidentally your name being Willie. I believe that song remixed with Willie Nelson would make national radio!
Thumbs down absolutely don't know anything about music this guy is the best picker I've heard I am a picker this boy has brought bluegrass.... NOT only bluegrass but other music back to life keep it up Billy you're great.... DON'T WORRY ABOUT THE THUMBS DOWN SPOOM PLAYERS AND THE CHICKEN CALLERS....
I'm grateful for the awesome talent I see and I love how y'all morph from bluegrass to the mesmerizing tripping music 🎶 there's hope for tomorrow ✌️💗🎶 peace love and rock n roll 💃Rojo keep pickin em strings 🤸
I don't even know what to say about the total fusion that you and your band have created. I can only say thank you for the long hours and dedication you have put in perfecting your one of a kind sound. I haven't had music move me like that since the original Allman Brothers band. I feel truly blessed to listen to music as fulfilling as yours. Thanks
Billy been there done that.... please if you're not past it yet be careful with drugs .You've got so much joy and living ahead so....Thats all I've got to say dude!
Nothing short of amazing. Fresh new psychedelic bluegrass FTW. Billy, keep producing, choose your friends wisely and you will be a legend. It's that simple.
I'm a granddad classic rock guy. Never really listened to bluegrass. Now I listen to you all the time. You're not my granddaddy's bluegrass which is why I like your band so much. Turmoil and Tinfoil has been an earworm in my brain for weeks. Looking forward to seeing you live one day. Rock on!
Well, I have lived many lifetimes & heard many tunes! But this makes my blood flow good! A Ketchikan, Alaska Policeman sent over one song for me to listen & I haven't been able to listen to anything else. Much Love From Thy Midwest USA :) Taking Water ☆☆☆☆☆
The other thing is the bringing together other musicians who are absolutely on a par with Billy…the coordination of playing riffs, harmonizing voices, word for word memorization of lyrics, it goes on. Would love to see Billy and the boys with the Marcus King band, so many great musicians.
Make sure y’all listen to this with some good headphones. The mix is absolutely perfect and almost makes you feel like you’re floating above the stage spectating. Absolutely wonderful.
Oh my dear children! On the one hand I love seeing the winter festivals live on, but the other is cramping up with memories like a three hour gig I did and my gloves froze to my sax. A superior piece guys, well done.
Hell yeah!!! Bring it on home. Reminded me of one of the many Acid trips i took in the early 1980s. We drove straight up Telegraph from Detroit to Ohio at 2:00am flying the entire way.. Loved it!! now i need t o find some ****** to take me back..
Just amazing, and those shots of the scenery as well, Oh my God!! Wish I could have been there, I'm all the way in the UK, I would love to come to America and follow him around.
I wonder what the temperature on stage is...I imagine it would be tricky burning down a bluegrass solo when you're losing feeling in your fingers! I LOVE the banjo player's attire on this one.
As a guitar player for over 30some yrs. all I can say is Fuck!! Nothing short of spectacular. I feel like quitting my job, buying an old pickup truck and follow these guys like a Dead Head Goat!!
Billy, you're an American treasure. 21st century psychedelic outlaw bluegrass FTW!
Hell yeah!
I love that terminology psychedelic bluegrass outlaw!! Do you mind if I use that term?? It's PERFECT!!!!!
There is a motion on the floor to amend +finalize this genre title to 21 century psychedelic outlaw billygrass...

There's a hand full of times in my life when a musician who is truly special emerges, and this is one of those times.
So true. It's like a Hank Williams, a Willie Nelson a Frank Sinatra ect. The type who sets the standard that all others copy and paste.
Agree with this message
What were your hands full of those other times tho😳
So true

You should listen to the Steeldrivers. I'm a metal head as well and I love the Steeldrivers
And he's from Michigan to boot. Playing in Detroit on 4/20! Can't wait!
Scott Begonias I’m from Michigan! Fuck yeah 🤘🏻
shane eagle alright hell yeah I will thanks bro!

Boom I just got like number 33 on your comment🤣
Just make sure you listen to this on a good pair of headphones. It is sensational !
Indeed
Yeah headphones hit that break just right
Im there right now....unreal!
Make sure u listen to this while on whip its n Lucy, its super sensational
He’s moving around in my head LOL
He is the Stevie Ray Vaughn of bluegrass. Not so much genre wise, but in the way he plays with such pure muscle without sacrificing finesse.
Billy, you and your band have restored my faith in music.
I’m 63 yrs old and Billy has renewed my love for music. Simply a master of his craft and surrounded by a stout group of fellows. 👍🏻👍🏻
Some of the best music available.
There is simply not enough superlatives to describe this extraordinary young man and his stellar band.
Indeed. In which case I'm forced to make one up: Scrumtrelescent
In my old car I drove the Australian long stretches 1000 km in 13 hours… yes I did not have this music then but it gives the feel…
I could listen to this a million times and it would never get old. Definitely the best band around right now, no debate. Keep it up boys, you're making a lot of people smile!
I get to see them in February in Asheville! Can't wait!
I have never heard a thing from this band I haven’t loved. I missed several shows in Virginia because I can not afford to go. Next time around I will donate plasma to get the money to see them.
Thanks for the great support
message me and I will pay for your ticket
He's good. You guys ever see Keller Williams? He's a fun show. Saw him at a little camp out 1 night festival in Spotsylvania, Va.
@D D
Keller is good, a kind of one-man-band. He got a national following, and he has wookie type stalkers like the band Phish. He has albums, had a song with decent radio air time.

Can you cover my Flight?
I can cover beer and tickets bro 😄
Oh and I can bring my guitar to 😂
Just kidding, you had the best Comment on youtube I saw in a while 🤜🏼💚🤛🏼
This is a kid yet already absolutely legendary! Kill it Billy!
Can’t wait to see these fine gentlemen one week from today Michigan mama luvs billy an boys 💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💃💃🔥🔥
Wow, I'm normally a very articulate person; but after seeing this my face literally melted off so I can't quite accurately describe what I've just witnessed.
Just a great way to continue a new bluegrass sound that everyone can enjoy. Psychedelic sounds...blue grass tradition. What a combo.
John, bela Fleck used to ( maybe still does) do that with his electronic banjo sounds. He does bluegrass with a jazz, psychedelic twist.
As do the Infamous Stringdusters
and that folks, is currently the best guitar player on the planet.
This kid is like Roky Erikson, The Velvet Underground, Gram Parsons, The Stooges, Townes Van Zandt, The Saints, etc. He's so far ahead of the curve that it will take 15-20 years before the world takes notice.
I literally could listen to Billy Strings all day long! I just love what he does and if I ever make it to his part of America I will definitely be going to a show!
lately his part of america is all states aside from (maybe?) Alaska and Hawaii.
Chelsie.Williams I do listen all day long, work in a shop , run a RUclips playlist all day
Seeing him live is twice as good as this
I've only discovered him in the last two months.. And he is a daily treat
. RUclips and Spotify
If I don’t get to the States to see him this year it will be because something dire has happened.
What a great time to be alive! Thanks for being part of my journey Billy 🥰💕
Maybe once every 100 years does someone like Billy Strings come along....im so glad Im alive to enjoy his brilliance!❤
Most call him "Billy Strings" here in Ga. We call him "Billy Strangs" King Strangs! Keep playin son, carry you with me to all the remote places I trout guide and fish!
Psychedelic bluegrass, who would have thought!! Amazing!!
Jerry Garcia and the Dead would love these kids!! How can anyone not love these guys??? A gangster rapper turned me on to Billy Strings!!!
This guy is unreal you’ve got to be kidding me. Every performance he has I’m blown away. Can’t wait to one day see them all live, what a talented set of musicians
this is transcendent - and all their own!
The world will know Billy Strings one day
…they’re getting there. 😉
Much love from Turkey! The level of cool and of soul Billy brings us is a blessing. Keep on rolling Billy boy
Maelamber YT -I heard the Adultery law was voted down today-great news for modern days
@@markmcarthy596 no idea, I don't pay much attention.
That's so cool that people all over the world are getting introduced to bluegrass.
Petition to bring back the stoned guy 🙌
Who is this guy you speak of ???
He will be in the back ground tappin his foot and giggling haha it'd be bad ass
Haha the local drug dealer with no sense of rhythm, just an awkward smile when Billy sings a drug reference.
Yeah my man ! That dude had some spirit in the dust in a baggie video! Definetly bring him along hahaha

AE always knew it was this type of music that could reverse the spell of illness. Thank you 🎉
Glad to see actual musicianship is alive and well somewhere here in the US. AMERICA truly is great!
You need to pay more attention to what's out there. 'Murica Akbar!!!!!!!

The Home CD is a masterpiece ! Billy Strings makes music and magic.
These are the kind of performances that people will look back on and say "Wow! I was there!!!"
Yes.... he can !!!!!!

Your ears will NEVER hear anything like this ever again! WOW!
I slept on this song for too long but now its like background music in my head 24/7
Nothing short of amazing. Fresh new psychedelic bluegrass FTW. Billy, keep producing, choose your friends wisely and you will be a legend. It's that simple.
Couldn't think of a better way to spend my 66th Birthday. Thanks Billy.
So nice to hear somebody with some original sounds.
Wow! That's different kind of music.
I'm a granddad classic rock guy. Never really listened to bluegrass. Now I listen to you all the time. You're not my granddaddy's bluegrass which is why I like your band so much. Turmoil and Tinfoil has been an earworm in my brain for weeks. Looking forward to seeing you live one day. Rock on!
psychedelic bluegrass? This is outstanding!
Tripp Miller check out yonder mountain string band and the infamous stringdusters or greensky bluegrass!!!
That's how I've always viewed this music also
Fusion Jazz.. head music!
Check out Stanley Clark.
Remember Woodstock? The blue acid grass is safe.
Fucking amazing.....
Well, I have lived many lifetimes & heard many tunes! But this makes my blood flow good!
A Ketchikan, Alaska Policeman sent over one song for me to listen & I haven't been able to listen to anything else. Much Love From Thy Midwest USA :)

It's like someone asked oh brother where art thou and a voice said just walk through the doors.
Make sure y’all listen to this with some good headphones. The mix is absolutely perfect and almost makes you feel like you’re floating above the stage spectating. Absolutely wonderful.
Oh my dear children! On the one hand I love seeing the winter festivals live on, but the other is cramping up with memories like a three hour gig I did and my gloves froze to my sax. A superior piece guys, well done.
seeing a dude wearing a baseball hat, duck billed, and playing upright bass is just really great
And a banjo player in full ski gear....70's style.
so that was wierd, awesome, and wierdly awesome! freaking amazing!
Their acid started kicking in. He's feeling it! 👍
This is too fkn good. I wish I was there. Billy showing his metal roots
Listen to bluegrass live in OHIO at many venues, but never imagined this talent came right out of my own backyard in Northern Michigan
I had a dream you recorded a duet of old Irish standards with Van Morrison.
That sounds nice my dude.
That would probably be pretty damn good. Don’t know if Van’s up for it though.
My gf would love that so much
He's absolutely amazing to say the least
This song is such a complete journey.
These lyrics hit home, 330 days on the road last year.
Gd, that part when the fireworks go off over that snowfield, goes into space from there. Glorious.
Seen billy in Manchester, England on 8th december, easily the best concert ive ever been too. Fucking unreal!!
Hell yeah!!! Bring it on home. Reminded me of one of the many Acid trips i took in the early 1980s. We drove straight up Telegraph from Detroit to Ohio at 2:00am flying the entire way.. Loved it!! now i need t o find some ****** to take me back..
HMU lol
Traditional bluegrass meets Pink Floyd. This stuff is otherworldly. Cheers from replay button hypnosis in Poland.
Just amazing, and those shots of the scenery as well, Oh my God!! Wish I could have been there, I'm all the way in the UK, I would love to come to America and follow him around.
I wonder what the temperature on stage is...I imagine it would be tricky burning down a bluegrass solo when you're losing feeling in your fingers! I LOVE the banjo player's attire on this one.
Billy makes music history-------
How can Billy get better? Pray for him...
Probably the best Trucking song I’ve ever heard ! Keep it between the lines guys !
Unbelievable, majestically brilliant my friends. Could listen to you all day. Passing you on as much as possible.
As a guitar player for over 30some yrs. all I can say is Fuck!! Nothing short of spectacular. I feel like quitting my job, buying an old pickup truck and follow these guys like a Dead Head Goat!!
Picking ur ❤..stay warm on tour..and keep playing for those crazy fans..
Thank you Billy Strings and your band for bringing new interest to bluegrass.
Not even cold fingers can slow him down...
Good Dang Dang ole right I'll tell you hwat
His fingers never get cold !
THANK YOU
New King of Psychedelic Grass! Treasure !
DUDE! Holy fuck this dude! Hot damn has Billy Strings sold his soul to the devil or what?!? Miraculous. Magical. Heavenly
That was amazing! Please come to the UK soon
New to Billy, this is simply an amazing performance. Cannot wait till tours start back up maybe get lucky and catch my first show.
This is my favorite of anything I've heard you play, Billy. Absolutely amazing.
Billy you do country music proud.
1 of the best guitar players, I have ever heard. His finger work is like, powder finger! No batteries needed.
Thanks for posting,!
God bless you Billy !
All I need to complete me life is a highway hypnosis in Oshkosh. Or until it happens
It did happen last Saturday night in Oshkosh! I hope you were there, it was incredible 🤯🤯🤯
@@henrythebasset8749 I was there. It made my Fricken day! Was so happy
Favorite track after watch it fall. That interlude gets me tripping every time. Love this. Stay woke.
Thank you Sean!!! Whoop Whoopxoxoxoxo
Getting better and better!
BillyGrass
Speechless 😶 mind blown 🤯 hypnotic indeed🤘🏽
That's gooood stuff!
Banjo line on this song is awesome
Wow. Total loss for words. Truly unique, and that band is on point. Legendary performance and especially for someone as young as he is. Incredible.
You have to listen to this with headphones on. Love it
Dam. Hes really good. Nice picking and super smooth raspy voice. Bluegrass is deffently his wheelhouse.
The panning towards the end is a trip in the headphones.
Your music has helped me through a rough patch. Truly inspiring to watch your stuff. Thank you for what you do.
