    When I was young local bluegrass players who come to my grandpa's porch on Saturday night in Clay, West Virginia just to jam with my Papaw, Loyd Butcher,Sr., when he played his mandolin. When I close my eyes and I heard the mandolin being played in Billy String's band, it took me back to the 1970s and my grandma's porch in West Virginia and all those old great players. That's the greatest compliment I can give these guys. You guys are awesome! ⛰️🏞️🌄🌳🏡💖🎵🎶🙏🇺🇸

    Anyone who likes bluegrass, jam bands, classic rock, psychedelic needs to check Billy Strings out. Plenty of amazing live stuff on RUclips. He's a huge Grateful Dead fan among others! Billy and the band (Jarrod Walker, Royal Masat and Billy Failings) are the real deal!
