- Lost Dog street band performs a song in their former cabin home in Chapel Hill, TN. I brought along my Australian friend, Sam White, to be 2nd camera and learn a little about American music. Needless to say, he was floored. The band had just returned from a season of clipping in marijuana country out West, and this was the same session we filmed Moonshiner and I Went Down to Georgia. History was made!
You can find Lost Dog street band on bandcamp, facebook and all that.

"On our first date we ran through sprinklers and broke things. We hopped our first train together." A love story for the ages.
They deserve everything they have...j.s. ...
@Sister Mary Catherine they have blown up lol
kyle kocin Actually go get me one too for that just to send it to me I never had a light in my life why would you doubt that
@@flappyturtles5917 You need some punctuation, or something. I read your comment, a few times, trying to figure it out, because I genuinely wanted to make a better response to someone saying they have, "never had a light in their life.."
I hope you feel better! I truly do, because I know this is a terrible feeling.. I feel like I just lost the light from my life, too, though.. We were 12 when we met, and 25 now.. I'm heartbroken, but everyone has someone out there, and I'm sure you'll find someone.
I feel like I waited around and chased her down, back and forth with each other, on and off for so long, it's been 13yrs.. I was so happy I finally had my chance with her as "young adults," this last time, from 22yo-25yo and really I was and still would be ready to spend my life with that girl.. I wanted so badly to make it last, and hold onto and keep forever the feelings she gave me, and her love.. I was willing to do anything in this world for that girl, and change anything about myself for her.
She just doesn't feel the same anymore, not about me.. We had a 3yr. relationship from 2017-2020 and I really fucked things up, and can never fix it this time.. Lord, I'm a fool..
She's a ding bat...in a real good Way ❤
When she said it was really sad, but you live with that when you love somebody, tears came to my eyes. I thought of all the bullshit I ever put my wife through in the beginning of our relationship with my drug use and drinking in and out of jail. Haven’t done any of the 2 in almost 10 years now and we are still together with our beautiful 7 year old daughter our own place to call home and vehicle and things are nice now. But that really sliced right through me wow. I am just so sorry, and so fortunate to have you in my life today Natasha and Victoria. I love you guys so much.
God bless you brother things always will get better
Thank God you’re sober now. The past is the past, enjoy the present!
God bless!
Jon Pennington Thank you so much John. I appreciate that very much. God bless you as well my friend
Mark Duffield Thanks Mark, your kind reply has given me a smile. I appreciate that
Todd Hooper Thank you Kindly Todd, and yes thank god... no telling where I’d be without my 2 girls. God has blessed me
I'm a stagehand in Hartford and work a lot of these "corporate country pop acts" and it kills me artists like these don't get their proper due ... you guys are incredible!!!!!!!!
My dearest uncle Darrel was a stagehand. A lot of this guys songs remind me of him.
Well said.
Not a stagehand, but a stage manager and prop maker here. So much better than the musicals you see on stage. Love this!
Their pockets may be light but their music is true and their fans are real. Recognition is all about perspective.
They choose to stay out of the corporate music scene
"Why do you write songs Ben?"
"Because I absolutely have too. Its in my soul."
Something I wouldn't believe if a pop artist said, but having listened too all of Bens work I can find, I have no doubt thats the truth.
I love this video -Im a 56 yr old man who has had his share of challenges. All of my siblings died from drugs and alcohol related illness's an accidents. Im the youngest out of four and the last one standing. God knows Ive had some close calls. Ben is a breath of fresh air and he and Ashley are an asset to our country. I play guitar an I can write but for some reason I cant put the two together. I admire Bens ability to lay it all out put it together so I can feel it through these speaker. My parents are all gone too. Grief is forever because the memories come to me mostly in my sleep so vividly and I dont see that ever ending. Ben if ya'll are ever down in South Central Kansas near Wichita take a minute and stop by. I live n a 120 yr old farm house. I have a big porch thats perfect for playin on. Thisis an older video but one of my favorites,. I cant believe I just found you all about 2 months ago.
Peace

" It was really sad. But you live with that if you love somebody. " good ppl good tunes...
I get misty every time at that part
@@sebastianschultz3107 me too
Brought tears to my eyes. All the drug use, the drinking, in and out of jail. Spending all our money so I wouldn’t get dope sick, she stuck with me through it all, helped me through the months of withdraw when I did it cold turkey, she really is my hero and I couldn’t be anywhere else in this world without her. I haven’t done any drugs or drank in almost 10 years. We have a nice place to call home, a beautiful 7 year old daughter a vehicle and a dog. But those first few years were rough. But When she said that in the video I just broke down. I am so lucky to have Natasha in my life.
What's sad about that? That's a beautiful love song...or you've never loved💯
@@richardvaughan9994 Thank you for sharing that, means a lot.
This makes me cry every time… “You live with that when you love somebody.” Thank you for all of your lovely music.
Gawdamnit I love this band
These cats don’t have a single dud in their discography and every album gets better I have to see them live!
I've seen them 6 times or so. They're even better live!
Great show live , seen them open for the Devil makes three another great band , and drove all the way up to Tennessee from Miami Florida to see them last year
Hands down one of my favorite shows ever!
they're absolutely amazing live
Seen them at Caines in Tulsa brought me to tears.
The fact that I'm high and this song is pretty long, It gave me flashbacks from my entire life, and made me remember there's still shit I really have to fix to get better.
You will get better. Follow God. He knows you best and loves you no matter what has happened.
Onwards and upwards sir👍
One day at a time one step at a time be safe stay safe
Enzo Scrève fix your mind and soul first. The rest will unfold before you
Hang in there and don’t give up. You fall....you get up. You fall again.....you get up again. Some day, you don’t fall. Love and peace.
I had a big fall from grace. Most would say I’m ruined. I got a gal, I’m getting my dog back. I’m outa the pen. This shit hits so hard.
Blessings to you my guy
Hand up to you sir. Get the Dog bk 1st. Fella needs priorities.
Stay up and out.
Hit that replay button and don't forget to love yourself. We are exactly the way we should be. Don't forget that you can be a vessel for the most good 🤗
Okay maybe have some respect and don't go hurting people and stealing shit. it ain't hard.
As a 23 year tattooed man sitting by a river by campfire light cigarette smoke pouring from my broken teeth staring at scars remembering times once passed this music has truly touched and fixed my soul
Don’t forget to mention your iPhone oggle
@@wokewestvirginia9279fuck you
Me too man, I owe them my life and they don't even know!!
23? You got no soul at 23.. Yes, even after you come back with some comment about how you do, you still won't have no soul.
Richard Mosher who taught you that you get a soul with old age? Lmao that’s not how it works.
Wow, I can't believe it's really been 9 years... this song is still as powerful to me as the first day I heard it 8 years ago ❤ my life has changed so much since then and this song really brings up so many memories. I love you guys so much !
I love everything this dude puts out. From the gut, and soul. Hits hard and makes you feel.
been incarcerated, addicted to drugs, alcohol hallucinations, homeless, heartbroken, broken... this music helps me. 9 months sober within the next couple of days, and still struggling. but music is where i find serenity.
It's a crying shame music like this doesn't get the attention it deserves
I agree.. at the same time I'm selfish enough to be glad they aren't on a tour selling out auditoriums. The music is pure. Money and fame always seems to taint that. I wish them all the best and I love their music
Zachary Phillips I agree but I also love having Lost Dog as my own personal, get drunk and cry to music. It’s SO cathartic
nah, these type dont need fame. Nor are they deserving of such torture.
Music like this doesn`t get attention from many people, yet by those people, who do pay attention, I guess, it is very captivating. So I guess from those people the music gets just the right amount of attention it deserves.
it's gets attention from the people who have ears for it, and it gives comfort to those who need it. I think that is enough.
Benjamin Tod and Shakey Graves could flatten cities with their musical talents combined, from how breathless their stories already are.
Fucking love Shakey Graves, glad to see another fan!
Shakey Kills it on the Late July video. Been a fan since first time I saw it. Kudos!
It is nice to see younger generations moving back to the roots of bluegrass and true country music rather than "country pop". I grew upon Flatt and Scruggs, Loretta Lynn and Johnny Cash...I miss that music.
Me too Sandy Shannon, I'm right there with you.
Amen to that my brother
Maybe there's hope for this generation... and as a result, for us all.
I'm 28 and my fiance is 26 and both of us are huge bluegrass fans. Every year we hit the bluegrass festivals around us. I have so much fun.
Here's a few other names you oughta check out...
Colter Wall
Tyler Childers
Turnpike Troubadours
The Damn Quaills
"Lord I'm a fool..Lord I'm a fool..." Hits me right in the soul. 😥
lord you're a fool lord you're a fool
Kameron Kolding It's definitely "I'm". But if you're trying to twist it and insult me, you go ahead, random internet dumbass. *finger guns*
Kameron Kolding meeee tooo
Agreed!!
😔
the feelings I feel when I listen to this stuff....I don't have the words for, but he does...
This is a song for the broken heart of humanity. Thank you for being a vessel and conveying things that sometimes can be too messy and scary for the general population. We need unashamed vulnerability to help us hold on to our humanity and empathy. Some many identifying with the wisdom revealed to another soul is confirmation we are all connected. Peace y’all 🕊💗
Nothin like quitting dope and puttin on some Lost Dog. 3rd time now
Try and get subs but DONT abuse em but it helps by like day 3 /4 stop and eat shitncuz nothing will get u off them
How you doing bro?
I feel like a fool everyday of my life, God bless all the beautiful souls who listen and feel this music x
"I'm never putting on a uniform, I will never have another job in my life" -Ben (He's got it figured out, he won at life no matter the outcome.)
Oddly, how I felt both entering and exiting the world of fine dining kitchens.
I had a girlfriend like her, or I thought I did. We had the strongest relationship and she loved me entirely for who I was. But when I relapsed on heroin after many devastating life blows, she left me, and I spent 10 months alone away from everyone wanting nothing but death. I'm 21 days clean now, I'm now comforted by the idea of being alone forever or finding that kind of love again. Either way, loving myself must come first.
Love & Light 🍀☮️🍀 Loving yourself is hard but it happens one choice at a time not over night.. I'm still learning myself! If nobody's told ya I'm proud of you man keep loving yourself even when you don't think your worthy of love those are the times you need it the most!
stay strong brother, there are better things in life for you than drug abuse
♥️
I have never heard a more soulful, pained voice. Brings tears to my eyes.
The hill country devil comes damn close
@@sebastianschultz3107 to be honest. I enjoyed his music more when he went by his real name.
...brings tears ever time I listen
why am I just now finding this? Ive been missing out this whole time
After all I've lived thru, finally a few words I can relate to
it feels like your songs have channeled the soul of hank Williams.... please keep writing music. I feel like its a shame that more people don't hear your music... or that some people can't hear it the way I do....
Man these two are only in their early or mid 20s!!!! Geez, they've got so much soul. So deep. Feel like they've been thru a lot, like myself. Except she said," you just live with that when you love someone". I say your special because not all girls will go through that for someone. Sometimes they just get plain sick of you and seeing you and hearing you.
Ben is 30 or 31 now, which would make Ashley 31 or 32- but yeah, they were in their early-mid 20s when this was recorded.
Wow....legit crying listening to this song. So damn good.
If I should fall from Grace would you still want me babe... even if I ruined you too? Whoa! Where have these words been uttered? No one has put these groups of words in their arrangement before or since. How agonizing and beautiful...!
I love you guys.....that was the sweetest thing ever at the opening of the video! I'm glad you are there for him, people like you guys let me know, they comfort me, cause love isn't dead.....needed to find yall out today, I thank the Lord for yall.....keep playing and writing and singing and stick together,.....its much more than music at stake. stay strong.
"Lord I am stumbling through the darkness cant find my way home"....Sounds like most of my life,I really never had a set home,growing up mom farmed me out(stayed) to my uncles and aunts where I spent most my childhood and maybe that's why I have always felt different/anxiety..This song has made me cry multiple times,all those years I wasted on the bottle haunts me now and so does this song but in a good way and yes "Lord I'm a fool...……………………….Been off the bottle for 10 years now(50 yrs old) Never going back to those dark times.
JOHAN 185 WRESTLER trying. It's not easy as you know....
Still one of my favorites 2023
Wow, this is what good country music should sound like. I'm amazed at the song writing talent.
Never fails to touch the deepest part of my soul...dude, I have no words
Lover hear me cryin’ Oh, I’m stumblin’ through the darkness
can’t find my way home
I’m pickin’ through the ashes and my head it aches
and my thoughts are all clouded in blue
(Chorus)
Lord, I’m a fool x4
if I should fall from grace would you want me babe
even if I was ruined?
Oh, could you find a way for my soul to save
even if it might ruin you too?
I’m haunted by the bottle and the taste of death
on my breath callin’
So, I fought with my reflection now there’s broken mirrors
and blood and tears all around
-Chorus-
I’ve never known the reason but you found my heart
and fell in love with who I am
-Chorus-
Lover hear me cryin’ oh, I’m stumblin’ through the darkness
can’t find my way home

This song jus goes straight thru you. an rattles that thumper called your heart. sends the shockwave to your soul. life is a rollercoaster ups an downs. I am working on my sobriety an it's a struggle. this song is how I honestly feel. thank you. so much for this beautiful song.. this art.
J
I have fallen many times and i took my last drink 9 years ago and im glad i didnt lose my battle but ive lost many to the disease alcoholism
Listening to this song is haunting. Reading the lyrics while listening..
You break my broken heart friends of sorrow. Ive never cried so fiercely, i know its too late , i wish i could say the so many things you say in so little words. Thank you for the peace
This song will take you to your heart and make you feel the most intense emotions you never thought possible.
If ever I were asked to explain what music is, I would showcase this song as an example......with the video commentary at the beginning.....absolutely amazing, you two let your soul shine through the songs and i admire that......its encouraging for a man on the same road.
James Lowery depressed and hopping trains. Beauty and soulful music keeps me alive. This music speaks to my heart.
You guys are a breath of fresh air, best I've heard in a long time.
Beatle Bug mariaaaa
Their songwriting is so sublime I love them!
You can’t script genuine, real, and vulnerability with resistance and strength...
I meant resilience not resistance, lol
@@lanahaxer did you know my daughter? She loved them 💔
This music and you dude make me cry I feel it in every song I'm so glad I found you. I relate with your words to much please keep it going for I am struggling and this makes me smile through the blues. Thank you.
Alex.
I'm so glad I discovered you guys tonight. fucking beautiful and full of gritty love 💚
Justin (A) ceers brother i agree
Samuel Diehl
@@samueldiehl2264 ha, for sure
I absolutely love the fact that you write and perform with your souls bared. Simply raw, and beautiful!
I am half of a couple, and we live this song. It's not so glamorous as this song but is the real grit of our lives as a homeless and addicted couple for 3 years now here in Nashville,TN. Been together for 10 years total.
Lost dog church💋
@@adamburgins441 I come here everyday not just Sundays. ⛪
I'm nearly 50 years old and these kids are half my age and it seems they've lived twice the life I have. Fucking phenomenal music. I love everything I've heard from them.
Two incredible souls are needed to be such good friends.and so good at making true pure soul filled music.
Absolutely incredible.
Oi oi oi
By far some of the best stuff from lost dog street band this song has reached out to me more times than I can count one of my many favorites but this song holds a place in my heart thanks u both sing great together
since I discovered these guys about an hour ago, iv been in a whirlwind of their videos. this is my fav so far. so damn raw
His music is not only from the heart it is from the deep part of the Soul
Benjamin is special, so very special. You’re lucky to listen to his story... his music tells it so well. Such a gem
God I love them they make my soul smile
To me, lost dog street band has been one of the most pure forms of expression in music I've found. I find that a lot of music has the ability to stir me and make me emotional but when i listen to these two sing it's more than that. It's not just hearing someone sing but feeling the music pour out from their souls and into my own. I know Ben has felt and lived exactly what he's singing about and there's no doubt about it.
I really hope he's staying clean. hes such a gem.
I like he looks to heaven and sings he falls from grace like the angel. Stay clean brother
These two are the real deal, exceptional music that I could listen to for hours and it sure as hell beats anything on the radio today.
Such great music from two genuine souls. Love them.
Beautiful music. This music is so soulful...a throwback to different times..may the sun always shine on you.
I miss kids like these. I wish I could be friends with y’all. I don’t have any anymore.
A "gem" for sure. so glad I found this a few weeks ago! great story and great song!!
This band is awesome and can Ben sing he sings with attitude and straight from the heart gotta love that
Thank you sir. You're more important than you understand
It's amazing to find music at the perfect time in your life
I love these two. It's like Johnny and June all over again. I do wish she sang more with him. Only souls with a bond play this beautifully together.
I love this music, can't imagine why anyone wouldn't.
People don't know what they're missing.
+ROWDYNATION get the fuck out of here you ignorant jackass.

It's not often a song will bring me to tears but this one does.
I don't understand why anyone would give a thumbs down to this Band and their music, if they don't like it, they don't have to listen to it, and God knows they don't have to comment or give a thumbs down!
God bless them. Beautiful music.
