@@Liz.Newton Thanks for the kind reply. Things are not easy but having discovered this wonderful family's music in the last couple of days gives me a very peaceful feeling. I trust God and am trusting Him to go before me in a difficult situation that is unfolding.
@@toolsforlife3650 Yes, the music’s powerful, well, a powerful messenger. Lots of songs to immerse yourself in. Thinking of you as you navigate and trust
I have chronic pain and serious health issues and am up alot of nights in serious pain. Listening to this song made me forget about my pain and I felt pure joy. Thank you, for the relief and for calming my mind and soul.
1975, communist era, Hungary. From the happiest part of the world, a record could only be smuggled. For Christmas, a smuggled item arrived hidden in the cover of East German and Czechoslovak records. As for Blue Sky - Night Thunder, it was Michael Murphey’s album with Caroline in the Pine on it. What I could hear again 45 years later was the first click on The Petersens. Honestly? The composition much better with The Petersens, than with the original performer. That's how I became a fan :)
Ellen has the voice of all of the country stars of the 50s, 60s, and 70s put together. She is the beautiful reincarnation and embodiment of all those amazing vocalists of that era!
That fiddle is an extension of Katie's soul ! And what a beautiful soul she is!! The Petersens are one of the best bluegrass band out there. And we're lucky to be enjoying them 😊
The reason their music is so great is because of God alone. If people put their trust in God and devote their lives to him like this family the craziness in the world would stop
Country music ceased to exist on radio about 10 years ago. It's basically degenerated into either crude talent-less hillbilly formulaic rap or cheap pop cowboy hat wearing backstreet boys facsimiles. Sad. The Petersens are a long overdue breath of fresh air, virtuosity and pure joy in the field of country and bluegrass.
He’s the best I’ve ever heard in my 66yrs. Katie really shines on this one!! And as always, Ellen’s banjo is awesome. Her picking style leads & ties sections together like few others can do.
This is probably my favorite Petersen’s video . Great background , Ellen’s beautiful voice , Matt’s smile , Julianne’s pure cuteness , Emmitt’s perfect dobro playing , Mama doing her thing , and lastly , Katie’s exquisite fiddle playing . What a treat for the eyes and ears ! 👍
Banjo music is the most underrated and melodic music ever! These guys really have it! Some people are born with it,. This family does Have it . What more can I say?
I have around five or six beautiful versions of this beautiful classic in my RUclips library but this is probably the best one. Amazing. I also appreciate how your family sings so many of the songs which I feel are the greatest songs ever. You really cherish the best songs like I do.
2020 is a crazy year. Just discovered the Petersens and several hours later still trying to figure out how is it possible they all have this insanely good vocals. The best part is seeing how much fun they are all having playing together.
Beautiful rendition of "Carolina in the Pines". I saw your Christmas show yesterday in Charlotte. What a wonderful show for the Christmas Season!! During the Q&A someone asked if you were going to play this song. Matt said "no this is a Christmas show". 😆 Next time I see one of your shows, I will hope to hear this.
Another wonderful bluegrass song with a banjo intro. All instruments firing beautifully. Ellen does a great job in the lead. Thank God for such a talented group of musicians!
Mother bass player is like the house foundations, that steel guitar is a gun machine trigger guau, the banjo mmmmh muaa but, BUT, that violin girl Oh my gosh, is something beyond strings. When she plays her solos uuuiiuuu. God Bless all of you kids. I can choose any of your tracks and I can listening several times on an on and on and on. I become addicted to you. Don't stop doing this. Javier V from Mexico.
Fiddle player is Katie, Banjo player is Ellen, Dobro player Emmett, Guitar player Matt, Mandolin player Julienne and Bass player (Mom) I’m pretty sure her name is Karen.
One of the best so far!!! Ellen's lead and Julianne's backup vocals here are beyond perfection. Just a completely beautiful and warm performance. LOVE LOVE LOVE!!!
My big toe on my right foot won't stop tapping ever since I first watched this video last year! The doctor said it was `Petersen Syndrome ', he told me to watch three Petersen videos a day and call him in a week! 😊😮😊
Agreed. Ellen’s banjo is perfect! Katie & Emmett smoke on this one!!! They’re the best! Listen to their new original! ruclips.net/video/YQpK09EFMaA/видео.html
I love the Petersens family. I don't understand English, but this music and this family is a gift from heaven to me. Thank you for the gift and pleasure you bring to people. Thanks also to google translator, which allowed me to write in English. Love and Peace from Europe 😍✌️
I praise the Lord almighty for our beloved Peterson’s!! They have spiritual gifts and they have blessed our hearts with the voice of earth angels and talented men and astonishingly talented ladies!!! God bless the Peterson’s!!
I just love this. And The Peterson. Beautiful young voices and musical abilities! I put them on everyday for my 9 month old son while I’m feeding him lunch. He especially loves the “down in the river to pray” song by yall. He smiles through the whole thing and at the end where yall walk through the creek. He just loves it. Thank you for such beautiful music that reminds us of home 💗💗💗
Dear Petersens, I have always been an old school Rock-N-Rolla and I never thought that I would like the Genre of Music that you play. My apologies, I was very wrong. The music that you play is truly beautiful and touches this old warriors heart. God Bless Y'all. Sincerely yours, CSM J.H. Parker, PhD., United States Army, 10th Group Special Forces (Ret.)
Been listening to the Petersens for a few months now and this is my favourite video. Everything is just perfect about it, vocals, instrumentals and the whole look of the video is superb.
It's been a year since I first heard your family do this song and I'm still working on getting my mind and heart around its beauty and poise. Ellen's singing is amazing and Katie's violin blows me away. God's light sure shines bright on these wonderful people.
As much as I love to hear Michael Martin Murphey sing this one, and I try to make it to his concerts at least once every couple of years, now I really want to hear this in person. The only way to make it better would be to hear Murphey in there too.
I am Texan born and raised so Country Music has always been a Part of me. I confess that Blue Grass has always been something that I’d listen to on occasion but never that much. I just ran across these kids and wow I am totally hooked. These kids are great. Keep on doing what your doing, you have a new fan down in Texas
I love their sweet voices, and talented interpretation of their instruments. Most of all, the feeling of country and family values that we all need so desperately these days. !
I didn't even know what Bluegrass was before RUclips recommended The Petersens to me - and now I can't get enough of them. Everything about it (voices, harmonies, musicianship, family, locations) it is just beautiful.
One of my favorite songs, and the Petersens' do a GREAT job in performing this. Every single member does their part in an excellent manner, and together they are the best! I'll also add that I particularly noticed that even though Katie isn't singing in front of the mic and is far off to the side, she really puts everything into her fiddle playin', and the way she smiles and moves it's easy to see how much she is enjoyin' this song... :-)
*LYRICS - Carolina in the Pines*
------------
She came to me, said she knew me
Said she'd known me a long time
And she talked of being in love
With every mountain she had climbed
And she talked of trails we walked up
Far above the timberline
From that night on I knew I'd write a song
With Carolina in the pines
There's a full moon on the fourteenth
First quarter, the twenty first
And a full moon in the last week
Brings a fullness to the earth
There's no guesswork in the clockwork
Of the world's heart or mind
There are nights I only feel right
With Carolina in the pines
As the frost grows on the windows
The wood stove it smokes and glows
As the fire grows we can warm our souls
Making rainbows in the coals
And we talked of trails we walked up
Far above the timberline
There are nights I only feel right
With Carolina in the pines
Album: Live Sessions, vol. 01
Thanks for posting that; I will visit their website. I don't have a lot of cash but I'd sure like to be one who supports their wonderful music.
@@toolsforlife3650 I get you. Just know watching these videos helps support them, and you can play for free on Spotify too if you don’t mind ads

What causes your pain and which serious health issues do you have?
Wishing you the best. I have pain an health issues too
The Lord has you

Hi guys! Today I woke up with Ellen's banjo intro in my mind... Happy New Year!!!
The most joyful noise in the world today is the sound this family makes...
Emmett, you are so smooth...
❤

I prefer the original by M.M.M.
Thats so cool!
Wow
Cool story, Greetings from East Germany
Our memories is all that matter. Such a lovely story mate. Lots of love from Poland.
Ellen has the voice of all of the country stars of the 50s, 60s, and 70s put together. She is the beautiful reincarnation and embodiment of all those amazing vocalists of that era!
Mom always blows me away in the background with that big old bass fiddle! Amazing.
Nobody can be sad listening to this song.
Greetings from Argentina. Once I discovered The Petersens I just can't stop listening to you . God bless !
I don't even listen to this genre of music. But I listen to The Petersens.
Definitely!
me 2 what a wonderful and happy family !!
yep
Same here I didn't listen to bluegrass until I found them
I only listen to heavy metal, but I love these people!!!
That fiddle is an extension of Katie's soul ! And what a beautiful soul she is!! The Petersens are one of the best bluegrass band out there. And we're lucky to be enjoying them 😊
Maybe if everybody watched this, the craziness in the world would stop
The reason their music is so great is because of God alone. If people put their trust in God and devote their lives to him like this family the craziness in the world would stop
maybe not
This is SO much better than anything on "Country" radio today.
Country music ceased to exist on radio about 10 years ago. It's basically degenerated into either crude talent-less hillbilly formulaic rap or cheap pop cowboy hat wearing backstreet boys facsimiles. Sad. The Petersens are a long overdue breath of fresh air, virtuosity and pure joy in the field of country and bluegrass.
ahh yes
I'd have the country music station on all the time if this (The Petersens) is what was on it!
That’s cuz this is bluegrass
Agreed!
Life is better with the Petersens, thank you!
Glad to see the younger generation is carrying on a real taste of music
The Dobroist player is insanely good. Very few can play that instrument with that level of skill.
Emmett Franz is a master for sure and he writes great original music, too.
Absolutely. Jerry Douglas would be speechless.
I was thinking the same thing.
Amy Crunch ä
He’s the best I’ve ever heard in my 66yrs.
Katie really shines on this one!!
And as always, Ellen’s banjo is awesome. Her picking style leads & ties sections together like few others can do.

I agree with you. I've watched this one many times.
Recharger. All good but Ellen's energy and lungs...
I mostly listen to punk rock and old school hip hop. But when my friends go home for the night, I listen to the Petersens.
@matt Harvey ....or play Scientist or I Want It That Way or Moments or .....on and on, lol.
It cleans the soul.
Banjo music is the most underrated and melodic music ever! These guys really have it! Some people are born with it,. This family does Have it . What more can I say?
This is America as I love it !
Don’t know why but the Petersens bring peace to my soul.
Weil die Mama alles im Griff hat
Its great music!
You should hear Katie Petersen singing at her church! It is amazing! ruclips.net/video/Mo9zw3ixPYQ/видео.html
So much talent in one place, it's almost a crime!
I have around five or six beautiful versions of this beautiful classic in my RUclips library but this is probably the best one. Amazing. I also appreciate how your family sings so many of the songs which I feel are the greatest songs ever. You really cherish the best songs like I do.

Ellen has a Beautiful sounding Voice on this song. Love this Bands Bluegrass and Folk Music .
The Harmonies are insane
Ellen"s vocal is so good for energetic songs like this one...

Join the club. :)
One of the band has too many fans, but heck I'm also in love. ♥️
7 days here. they all are just so good
What is your favorite song by them
Julianne KILLED those harmonies! And everyone's solo was phenomenal. And those golden rays of sunshine adding to it all? Absolutely beautiful.
O M G.... I think I need help!!!???!? I can't stop playing 'Blue' and 'gentle On My Mind'. Lots of love and thanx to the Petersons.... WOW!!!!!!!
that aren't sunrays... it's the blessing of god himself upon dem
Man that dobro playing just makes my day!! Fantastic guys 👍
The Petersons make Branson the place to be.
Indeed, so much so that they even made it to the cover of the 2022 Official Branson Vacation Guide.
Love, love, love Ellen's vocal here. And all those fast-moving fingers all around create a beautiful kind of magic as only The Petersens can do.
The musicianship and vocals in this song are absolute perfection. When this video reaches one million views, 500 of them will be mine!
My big toe on my right foot won't stop tapping ever since I first watched this video last year! The doctor said it was `Petersen Syndrome ', he told me to watch three Petersen videos a day and call him in a week! 😊😮😊
Ellen you're something special !!!! Married my Ellen in '86. And I live in Carolina!!! Love at least 2 Ellen's!!!! You're a Superstar!!!!!👍👍🙏❤
I can almost feel the cool air and smell the pines and grass.
This is by far their best song. It is true bluegrass - the rich harmonies, expert instrumentation, and perfect sonic composure.
Agreed. Ellen’s banjo is perfect! Katie & Emmett smoke on this one!!! They’re the best! Listen to their new original!
ruclips.net/video/YQpK09EFMaA/видео.html
This isn’t their song! It’s a cover of the original by Michael Martin Murphy.
Wait.. a full moon on the fourteenth and another one two weeks later? Carolina is a special gal ! ❤ She makes the moon double full double twice 😊
I love the Petersens family. I don't understand English, but this music and this family is a gift from heaven to me. Thank you for the gift and pleasure you bring to people. Thanks also to google translator, which allowed me to write in English.
Love and Peace from Europe 😍✌️
Most of the songs have their lyrics posted. Maybe have Google or similar translate into your language, read along with the song.
Bluegrass music! Its awesome!
God bless. you have great taste in music😉.
The Petersens, their instruments, three microphones and the countryside. Absolutely wonderful.
Slide guitar kills it as usual. Man that guy can play.
Dobro? Yeah he plays faster than the speed of light.
*resonator guitar
Never get tired of listening to her sing
I praise the Lord almighty for our beloved Peterson’s!! They have spiritual gifts and they have blessed our hearts with the voice of earth angels and talented men and astonishingly talented ladies!!! God bless the Peterson’s!!
三姉妹の歌が綺麗にハモリ、それぞれ個性的かつ魅力的な歌声！素晴らしいです！毎日、日課のように動画観てます!日本でliveしてほしいな！

we can warm our soles watching rainbows in the cold 🤗
I sooooo love listening and watching them play. Mum and Dad must be so proud of them.
I hope Michael, some how gets to hear The Petersons play his song...he would be proud!!
Phew your all so talented, i dont know who to look at or listen to thanks for sharing
What a great song that features the banjo so well
how can 117 people not like this? Geez, just goes to show you cant please everybody.
Thr double stops in the violin part.... and all those other fancy violin techniques, wow.
I love how Mom is involved. Her and Dad are a great influence. Well done. Great music. Good team work.

The leading family in Bluegrass in my opinion. Katie as the foundation of stability.
What an excellent band.
Probably approaching 50 times listening to this one. Thank y’all!
Bluegrass is your authentic music touch. Love it!

I'm a coast dwelling city guy but this music is the best, and this band is in a class of its own
I keep saying this, but it still amazes me how well your live recordings are!!
You all give me hope . . . thank you Lord for bringing this family to the world. We need them now more than ever !!!
Ellen Petersen is just one of the greatest voices of our time.
P.s.: you are all amazing!
I agree......I think she is a new 'country superstar"!
Almost a year later and I'm still lovin' the Petersens! 😁😊
And you should hear Katie Petersen singing at her church! ruclips.net/video/Mo9zw3ixPYQ/видео.html

🙂*** Best banjo, guitar, slide guitar & violin playing ever!!! ->I’ve commented before, still never get tired of listening to superior playing!!!!😎
Old saying, a family that plays together stays together. Excellent
WOW. I’m a Carolina boy,
That’s the best version I’ve ever heard, Beautiful, thanks!
First in Flight...First In My Heart.
I think I fell in love with the Petersens.
Yes even oregonians absolutely love the petersons.
Ucket list is to see them in person
Just brings peace to your soul kinda music. Could listen all day.
I had to buy a flannel shirt for the upcoming Fall after watching/hearing this awesome tune!
I love their sweet voices, and talented interpretation of their instruments. Most of all, the feeling of country and family values that we all need so desperately these days. !
Love to the Petersens!
Thanks for being such a wonderful blessing to me!!!!!

Same here. Never heard of this style. Changed abruptly last December with these angels.
Check out "The Seldom Scene or Allison Krause and Union Station. The best in unamplified music.
Beautiful voice!
That just put me in a fantastic mood. Nailed it again
Funny how that works.
Yay! Thank you :)
@@ThePetersens Thank YOU guys!
Yes! And you should hear Katie Petersen singing at her church! ruclips.net/video/Mo9zw3ixPYQ/видео.html
Still exquisite!
Y'all are bringing the roots back to Country
I'm not a country(?) fan, nor an audiophile but I find myself clicking every The Petersens video that pop up .. and hat off+
I've literally watched this 100 times
I have the same giant smile at the end of every song 😊
I have heard almost every version of this song. This is absolutely the very best that has been recorded.
I am now a fan of Bluegrass thanks to The Petersens. Shout out from Rhode Island.
You are undoubtedly the best bluegrass band there is.
Fantastic! And singer is great and looks like Elsa too...
One of my favorite songs, and the Petersens' do a GREAT job in performing this. Every single member does their part in an excellent manner, and together they are the best!

You all started here. Glad For it we are. Thank Jesus for The Petersen's.
The Petersens never disappoint!
