    Dated a girl who worked and lived on site when Billy played at the Mishawaka. I asked what was like to see him at such an intimate magical place on the Poudre River with the Rocky Mountains setting the mood. She asked who Billy Strings was. We didn't last.

    Speak it without saying a word. We’re all listening. Absolutely beautiful. Absolutely the best. Ever. The world has waited for something like this and it has finally arrived. You are a gift to us all. And we greatly appreciate you and your band. So happy to be able to watch and enjoy your journey to the top. Thank you for drowning out the ugliness in the world and bringing light to my life, dance to my feet, and joy to my soul. ❤️

Their approach is like the underground westcoast rock bands and jazz of the 1960s jazz and even that first wave of alternative bluegrass and folk: complex, daring, playful, unique.
    Such freshness! Such talent!
    Definitely gets this soon to be 70-year-old man excited about new music again! I am truly happy for their young fans that they can experience this phenomenon in their best years. We had a blast in our day, now you guys get yours! Enjoy, then save the world!

    A voice like Billy's is such a standout! Underrated vocalist - great night after night - compare to any other jam band vocalist and you have to admit he's cut from a different cloth.

    If he did an album with the same textures and colors in the song 'tinfoil and turmoil', it would be a complete smash. That song is incredibly original and addictive, it puts you on the edge of your seat to see where he's going to take you on the musical journey you've embarked on

    This is the song that touches a person's soul. It doesn't matter what walk of life someone comes from because the lyrics are so real and true. I enjoy all of Billy Strings music, everything he does is great but out of everything he does this song is by far my own personal favorite. Outstanding job Mr. Strings.

    @coreyjeffrey4637 Год назад +1

    First off, it's AMAZING that this is live. Even if it wasn't - it sounds like a band of older musicians that have been doing exactly this their whole lives and just gel together in addition to each individual's skill. OR it sounds like someone payed thousands of dollars in studio time to record each piece a hundred times to get it right.
    The fact that these are relatively young musicians at a live performance is just incredible. All that technical garbage aside, it's an awesome song and story! Strings and his band is the entire package and then some.

      And if I may add a tidbit...If you have ever been locked up (for any reason) or have been in the service and deployed overseas (peacetime or combat), this song captures the desperate question of a loved one that you just can’t talk to for reasons beyond your own control and beyond words of explanation. Well captured sorrow!
